Obituary for Mary Reyes
Mary Reyes, a longtime resident of Hollis, Oklahoma, passed peacefully from this life on May 17, 2026, at Colonial Manor II in Hollis, Oklahoma, surrounded by the love of her family. She was 73 years old.
Mary was born on May 9, 1953, in Greenlee, Colorado, to Vincente and Genobeba Fuentes. Raised as the daughter of migrant workers, Mary's early life was rooted in hard work, faith, and family. Traveling throughout the West Texas Panhandle and Hollis, Oklahoma during her childhood, she developed a deep appreciation for family bonds, perseverance, and the Lord, values that would guide her throughout her life.
Mary was raised in the Pentecostal church, where her love for the gospel first took root. Her faith was not simply something she believed, but something she lived each day. She loved the Lord with all her heart and was never ashamed to share her faith, encouragement, and wisdom with others. Whether through a heartfelt conversation, a song, or prayer, Mary constantly pointed those around her toward Christ.
Full of life and energy, Mary had a joyful spirit that could light up any room. She loved singing gospel music, watching her beloved "Days of Our Lives," and spending time with those she cherished most. Kind, respectful, hardworking, and always willing to offer advice or encouragement, Mary was a steady source of strength for her family. Education was especially important to her, and she constantly encouraged her children and grandchildren to pursue their dreams and better themselves.
While working in the fields in Hollis, Mary met the love of her life, Freddy Reyes. Their love story began humbly among the long days of labor and sacrifice, eventually blossoming into a lifelong partnership. They were united in marriage in 1970 and together built a beautiful life centered around faith, family, and ministry.
Alongside Freddy, Mary traveled throughout Oklahoma and Texas as an evangelist, sharing the gospel and ministering to countless people through the years in tent revivals. She faithfully served beside her husband as First Lady Monte Calvario, in Wellington, Texas. Dedicating her life to serving others and spreading the message of God's love. Her ministry touched many lives, and her unwavering faith left a lasting impact on everyone who knew her.
Mary deeply loved her brothers and sisters and treasured the closeness they shared throughout her life. Family was always at the center of her heart. She was the embodiment of Proverbs 31.
Left to cherish her memory are her beloved husband, Freddie Reyes; her children, Freddie Reyes Jr. and wife Tiffany Lorraine Reyes, Eddie Reyes and wife Cindy E. Reyes, Grady Reyes and wife Sophia Reyes, Teddy Reyes and Sarah Lyette Reyes, Roman Reyes and fiancée Brittany, and Kristi Anna Reyes.
She is also survived by her loving siblings, Jimmy Fuentes, Fernando Fuentes, Anita Castaneda, Carol Davila, Susan Larios, Patty Herrera, Genevie Aldaco, and Vickie Fernandez.
Mary also leaves behind a legacy of love through her cherished grandchildren: Chloe, Zoe Nicole, Emma, Ivy, Kayla, Raina, Marissa, Michelle, J'Da, G'Gady, Samara, Mia, Moses, Axel, Kaelynn, Camerson, Ramiro, and Marcela.
She was preceded in death by her sister, Angie Reyes; her mother, Genobeba Soza; her stepfather, Alonzo Soza; her father, and her precious great-grandchild, Zaylie Nguyen.
Mary will be remembered as a woman of unwavering faith, a loving wife and mother, a devoted grandmother, and a servant of God whose life was defined by love, sacrifice, and compassion. Though her family's hearts are heavy with loss, they find peace in knowing she is now resting in the presence of the Lord she faithfully served all her life.
