Eliza Ann Chapa

Eliza Ann Chapa, a devoted wife and mother, a loving daughter, and a cherished friend to many, passed away peacefully on May 19, 2025, in San Antonio, Texas, surrounded by loved ones.

Born on April 23, 1980, in San Antonio, Eliza radiated warmth and joy throughout her life, touching the hearts of all who knew her. She was known for her quick wit and infectious laughter, which brought joy to everyone around her.

Eliza approached her work with the same dedication and compassion that she brought to her personal life. Proud of her Hispanic heritage, she often celebrated her roots through stories and laughter, drawing her family closer with every shared moment.

She will live on through her beloved husband, William Chapa, and her loving sons, Gavin, Gabriel, and Lucas, as well as her mother, Gloria Garcia. She is also survived by her fathers, Guillermo Garcia and Cande Ramirez; her brother, Oscar Dominguez; nephews Jay and Jaren; and niece Aaliyah. Her spirit will continue in the hearts of her extended family and friends, whom she cherished deeply and spoke about often.

Eliza was preceded in death by her grandmother, Lucia Berrelez; grandfather, Pedro Pulido Jr.; sister-in-law, Debbie Bains; uncle Ray Pulido and cousin, Dentin Gormley.

Eliza was known for her passions—her love for her home, adorned with plants, butterflies, and birds; her spontaneous kitchen dance parties that filled the air with joy; and a nurturing heart that truly knew no bounds. Whether taking trips with family, enjoying a day of shopping, or simply spending time with her beloved pets, Luna and Loki, Eliza embraced life with grace and exuberance.

Family and friends are invited to honor and remember Eliza’s life during a public viewing on Tuesday, May 27, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, with a Rosary from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
