Estella “Estelita” Velasquez, 93, passed away peacefully on January 9, 2025, in Bakersfield, California. Born on February 21, 1931, in Bogotá, Colombia, Estella lived a life marked by strength, resilience, and a quiet but enduring presence. She spent most of her life in Upland, California, before moving to Bakersfield, where she spent her final years.

Estella was a skilled Dental Technician by trade and took great pride in her work. She also had a deep love for cooking, often preparing meals that brought comfort and joy to her family. Above all, she was a devoted mother who worked tirelessly to raise her three children. Her dedication and love for her family were evident in everything she did, and her children, Manuel and Ana, along with her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, will remember her in their own special ways.

Estella was preceded in death by her son, Javier, and her granddaughter, Madeline, and is now reunited with them. Her legacy of perseverance and the lasting impact she had on her family will continue to be felt for generations.

A service to celebrate her life will be held at St. Joseph's Catholic Church, 877 N Campus Ave, Upland, CA 91786, on February 4th, 2025, at 11:00 a.m.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America in Estella’s name.

Rest in peace, Estella. Your memory will live on in the hearts of those you leave behind.

You can to the family or in memory of Estella Velasquez.
