Liliana Gallegos

We are saddened to announce the passing of Liliana Gallegos, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, niece, cousin and cherished friend. Her death was unexpected and a huge loss to her family.

Liliana Aguirre Manzano was born May 22, 1971, in her beloved Veracruz, Mexico. She passed away October 5, 2025, in Santa Fe, NM.

Liliana was preceded in death by her father Francisco Aguirre, and mother Lilia Manzano. Her husband Jonathan Gallegos.

Liliana worked for many years in the food industry, beginning in Espanola at Los Arcos, La Cocina and then Blakes Lota Burger. Jonathan and Liliana moved their family to Santa Fe and Liliana transferred to Blakes Lota Burger in Santa Fe, continuing to work there until she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2022. She fought cancer courageously to become cancer free, unfortunately her diabetes was a major health issue, and she had been hospitalized several times this year.

Liliana is survived by her daughters Stevany Aguirre and Armanee Gallegos, son-in-law Richie Arras, grandchildren Laylanie, Kaleb and Faith Arras. Brother Francisco Aguirre, niece Liliana and Emeralda Aguirre from Juarez, Mexico and many other relatives and friends living in Mexico. Sister-in-law Eufemia Gallegos and sons, Xavier and Julian and their children. Aunt Lolita Lopez and family and many friends.

Liliana will be missed so much by family and friends, but we must find consolation in the beautiful memories she has left and knowing she now rests in a far better place in the presence of GOD.

Always in our hearts, we'll love you forever! Rest in Peace!
