Louise Jimenez

Louise C. Jimenez, a resident of Santa Fe, was called home by our Heavenly Father on December 29, 2023. She was born in Clayton, New Mexico, and having a father in the U.S. Navy, gave her opportunities to attend schools in Florida, Hawaii, and California.  She loved the cultural experiences from those travels.  Louise graduated from Loretto Academy Class of 1963. She has always professed her love for our savior Jesus Christ. Having come from a large family, get-togethers were abundant as she loved to cook and bake while celebrating holidays and family events, and quite often, the phone call - “Come over! I made….” Louise also had a strong interest in genealogy and spent countless hours documenting our family’s history for many years. She also enjoyed going to the casino and playing some heated Scrabble games. Louise is now reunited with her parents, Thomas and Caroline Travis, her siblings Tommy Travis, Mary Contreras, Barbara Garcia, and her nephew Joey Travis. She is survived by her loving husband of 54 years, Eladio Jimenez, sons; Thomas (Nancy) Jimenez, and Adrian (JoAnna) Jimenez and Goddaughter Kristina Travis, sisters; Pita (Neil) Thomas, Pat Travis, Kay Travis, Dolores (Mark) Travis, Caroline (Fred) Romero, and Brother-in-law Joe Garcia along with many nieces and nephews and grand nieces and nephews.

A private burial will follow at a separate time through the National Cemetery.
