Guadalupe (Lupy) G. Hernandez | Obituaries

June 16, 1944 – May 4, 2023

With profound sadness we announce the passing of Lupy Hernandez on May 4, 2023. She was a loving wife, mother, and a friend to all whose lives she touched. She was surrounded by loved ones at the time she passed. Lupy will be missed by many.

Lupy was born on June 16, 1944, to Sara and Andres O. Garcia Sr. in Seguin, Texas. She was one of thirteen children in the Garcia family.

While in her teens she met Felix Hernandez, Sr., eventually love would blossom and they would marry in August 1962. They had 61 blissful years of marriage at the time of her passing.

During those 61 years of marriage, Lupy raised three children, Felicia, Deborah, and Felix Jr. (JR). While raising a family she worked various jobs; however, she is most known for her years of service as a cashier and office manager at HEB in the local community. Lupy was a passionate decorator and when she wasn’t filling her home with warmth and décor, she could be found browsing the latest trends in magazines. Friends and family will remember her beautiful smile, kind heart, and her laughter. Most importantly, she was a beautiful daughter, caring sister, wife, and loving mother.

Lupy was preceded in death by her daughter, Felicia Hernandez Scheel.

She is survived by her spouse, Felix Hernandez; daughter, Deborah Hernandez and spouse Sandra Bravo; son, J.R. Hernandez; granddaughter, Brittany Nichole Scheel, as well as many siblings, nieces and nephews.

The family wishes to extend a personal thank you to Lupy’s wonderful caregivers, along with the staff at Guadalupe Regional Hospice. The extraordinary care, kindness, and support they bestowed to Lupy, and the family was a tremendous blessing during Lupy’s illness.

In respect of her wishes, the family will hold a Celebration of Life in her honor at a later date.
