Eloisa Silva Lovato was born on February 26th, 1939, in Hot Springs, New Mexico to Marcelino Lovato and Gregorita Salas.

On February 19th, 1962 Elsie married Raul Rodriguez. They were the first Hispanic couple to be married in Ochiltree County. Back in the early years, Raul and Elsie were the center of the party. Hosting numerous Mexican dances and keeping the local taverns in business. They enjoyed life and spending time with friends and family. Elsie was not only a great mother to her own children, but she was also considered "mom" to a lot of their friends throughout the years.  She was a great cook and always had a house full, especially when she decided to make Mexican food.

Eloisa was known by many names, Elsie, Mom, Tia, but her favorite was Nana. Her greatest treasure in life was her family. She was proud of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren; she loved them all unconditionally. She cherished family gatherings and creating family memories. Nana loved the simple things in life, she didn't need or want much. In her later years, she liked to stay home. She always had a puzzle book and pen in hand. Elsie had a special talent of circling words while listening to every conversation in the room. If you wanted to know something, just ask Nana, because she loved to share all her info. She had a sweet tooth and would rather eat sweets than supper and she loved to drink her cerveza.  Cheers Nana!

Oh, sweet sassy Nana, you will be missed in so many ways, your smiles, your laugh and your hugs. Rest easy and give Papa a big hug!
