Maria Franco Solis, of La Coste/Lytle, Texas, passed away November 26, 2025 at the age of 101. She was born September 20, 1924 in La Coste, Texas, to Julio Solis and Francisca Franco Solis.

Maria was a loving daughter and aunt. She was employed in the sewing department at Finesilver Manufacturing Company, a clothing manufacturer in San Antonio, Texas. After nineteen years, she then dedicated her time to caring for her parents at home, until they each passed away. She also helped care for her niece and nephews while their parents worked. She was like a 'second mother' to them. Maria always had her doors opened and welcomed others. In 2006, she moved to Lytle, Texas, where she was pampered like a "baby girl". She lived a well-deserved life where her needs were catered to, and she was lovingly cared for.
