Hermila Trevino Recio

Hermila “Mia” T. Recio, 100, passed away peacefully surrounded by her beloved family on October 15, 2022. She is now resting in the arms of the Lord. Mia was born in Los Saenz, Texas to Samuel and Isabel Treviño in December 14, 1921. She married her sweetheart and companion of over 41 years, Eusebio Gustavo “Chevo” Recio in April 12, 1942 and together they raised four amazing children and began a legacy filled with much love, pride, and joy. Mia was a true blessing and a woman who loved her family fiercely and always carried herself with much grace and love. Her strength and ability to empower her children, grandchildren, and great- grandchildren was admirable. She possessed a deep faith and love for God and instilled that in all of her family. She dedicated her life to her family and she will be
greatly missed. Even though her passing has left a profound sadness in our hearts we are all grateful for the beautiful memories, laughs, tears, joy, and experiences she left us with.

Mia was a devout Catholic and a member of the Immaculate Conception Church. Her dedication to the church was evident as she was recently honored for her membership in the local Catholic Daughters of America Chapter for over 50 years.

 Mia is survived by her children, Jorge (Mary) Recio, David (Tina+) Recio, Gracie Recio and her Daughter-in-Law, Elia Recio. Her grandchildren Patsy (Rey) Ramirez, Clarissa (Alonzo) Ibañez, Yvonne “Bonnie” Recio, David Arturo Recio, Jr., Jorge Eduardo “Boy” Recio, Jr., Jessica (Erick) Torres, Vanessa (Nathan) Rawls, Gabriel
Recio, Gabriela (Lonnie) Sanchez, Roberto Eusebio “Bobby” Recio, Tayhlour (Travis) Charlton, Landon Lieber and her twenty great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her brother Raul Treviño and numerous nieces and nephews.

 She was preceded in death by her parents Samuel and Isabel Treviño, her sisters Tomasita SantaMaria and Amalia Viglini, her brothers Horacio Treviño and Eleazar Treviño, her son Ricardo Eusebio Recio, her grandson Sergio Luis Recio, and her daughter in law Tina Recio.

In memory of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, we will always remember your love, strength, faith and excellent cooking skills. Your love will remain our beacon and although we cannot see you, we know you will always be with us; we will never be apart.

The Recio family would like to express our sincere gratitude to all family and friends who have shared in one form or another throughout Mia’s 100 years of life, your kind sympathy at a time when the world seems like a cold and empty place are greatly appreciated. Despite our heavy hearts, your kindness and support are gentle reminders that love and hope still exists.
