Beloved mother, grandmother, aunt and sister, Estefana Aguilar Flores, age 85, and a resident of New Braunfels, entered into eternal rest surrounded by her loved ones on Tuesday afternoon, August 14, 2018 at her home. Estefana was born on December 26, 1932 in Gonzales to the late Carmen Aguilar and Jovita Galvan Aguilar. Throughout Estefana’s life, she maintained a close and personal relationship to our Lord Jesus Christ and to her church, Our Lady of Perpetual Catholic Church. Everyone knew Estefana was always willing to help anyone in need. Her pastime activities included sewing, cooking and singing.

Flores; daughters, Rachel F. Rodriguez and husband, Santos R. Rodriguez, Jr. and Rosemary F. Torres and husband, Ruben Torres; sisters, Julie Cardenas and Alice Natal.
