Ines Estrada, 73, peacefully passed away surrounded by those who loved her in her home in

Las Vegas, Nevada on May 2nd, 2026. Born in Mexico on January 20th 1955 , she lived a long

and fruitful life. Between 1960-1970 she immigrated to the United States with her mother and

worked in a sewing factory. While working at the sewing factory, she took side jobs cleaning

houses. Then one day in August of 1974, Ines had come to a home in Pomona to clean and

discovered the love of her life Daniel Estrada. Ines was proposed to that same week and they

happily got married later that same year on October 2nd. In the following year on May 27th, they

welcomed their first daughter Diana. Ines later moved with her husband and daughter to Long

Beach, California where she shared her home with many in her family.

Ines had six brothers and sisters and many of them would come to live with her in their

many homes over the years in California. Ines was always known as the mother hen in the

family and would take in anyone. She was a proud housewife who could create dinner for ten,

babysit many children, all while being a wonderful wife and mother. Then on January 26th 1984

she had a wonderful surprise and gave birth to her second daughter Maria. She would

eventually move from her apartment on Termino Avenue in Long Beach to her apartment on

Loma Avenue where she spent many years creating wonderful memories with her family and

her neighbors. During this time in this new apartment building, she was also enjoying living with

her brother Emilio and his wife Norma. Ines would help raise not only her daughters, but helped

raise young Norma and Emilio as well. Ines would be the core of this new family unit for the rest

of her life.

In those years, Ines would soon be blessed by her future grandchildren. They would

create heartwarming and loving memories with her for the rest of her days. On October 14th

1995, Norma’s daughter Betty was born and Ines welcomed her first blessing of a

granddaughter. On February 4th 1998, Ines welcomed with a huge heart her second

granddaughter Lourdes from her daughter Diana. On March 16th 2007, her daughter Maria

would welcome Ines’s bundle of joy, Melody. Ines would have the blessing of also welcoming

her only grandson Bryan on October 19th, 2009. Ines would help raise these children like her

own. She would be known as a woman who would happily care for any child who was entrusted

to her. She was a mom, a sister, a daughter, a wife, a grandma, an aunt and ultimately someone

everyone could depend on, young or old. As a housewife, children and family would be the most

important aspect in her life.

After years of creating these lasting memories caring for others, her husband Daniel

would retire and she would decide to take the next chapter in her life and move to her home

away from home, Las Vegas, Nevada. In her life, besides being a strong role model for others,

Ines was known for her famous cooking skills from making her famous cheesy spaghetti to her

delicious pambazos. From holiday gatherings and many family parties, Ines would always be

found in the kitchen leading the other women in the house. Ines, like her husband, was also a

music lover. She would enjoy the songs of Neil Diamond to Los Angeles Azules, and when she

was not in the kitchen she would be on the dance floor dancing the night away with the love of

her life. Ines was a woman with a big heart who cared for many, however she was also a

woman who brought tough love and was known for her fiery passion and attitude. Ines was a

force to be reckoned with and anyone who knew her would know she would do anything for the

ones she loved. Ines was a powerhouse and this is why she was known as the role model for

not only the women in the family but the men as well.

Ines was “Grandma”, “Mom”, “Tia Ines” and will always be remembered as the woman

who helped so many in their lives. Whether it was the best or worst times, Ines would provide

many in the family with food on the table, a roof over their head and tough love to match. Ines

was a “tough cookie” with a heart of gold. The best of both worlds in a woman. Someone who

would be a wonderful balance to her gentle and caring husband Daniel. Ines’s love and strength

will continue to carry on as part of her legacy with those she held close. She is survived by her

daughters Maria and Diana as well as her grandchildren, Betty, Lourdes, Melody, and Bryan.
