1965 "Manolo" 2025

Manuel Ibarra Durazo

August 16, 1965 — November 24, 2025

Nogales, AZ

Manuel Ibarra Durazo, conocido cariñosamente como Manolo, falleció el 24 de noviembre de 2025 en Tucson, Arizona, dejando un legado de amor que impactó profundamente a su familia. Nacido el 16 de agosto de 1965 en Nogales, Sonora, Manuel fue un ejemplo de bondad, cariño y humor, cuya presencia transformó la vida de quienes tuvieron el privilegio de conocerlo.

Manolo siempre fue un hombre de familia dedicado y valoraba su rol de esposo y padre por encima de todo. Su esposa, Blanca E. Ibarra Rentería, fue una figura central en su vida, y su vínculo fue testimonio de un amor y compañerismo inquebrantables. Juntos, criaron y criaron a sus maravillosos hijos, Manuel Ibarra Rentería Jr. y Blanca E. Rodríguez Ibarra Jr., quienes poseen la calidez y compasión que su padre personificó. Adoraba a su yerno, Luis Antonio Rodríguez, y abrazó a la familia de su hija, haciéndolas sentir siempre parte integral de su mundo.

Como orgulloso abuelo, Manolo quedó cautivado por la energía y alegría inagotables de sus nietos, Luis, Liam y Laudon. Eran su orgullo y alegría, y disfrutaba enormemente viéndolos crecer, siempre con una cálida sonrisa y una palabra de cariño. Su presencia se sentía no solo entre su familia inmediata, sino también entre sus hermanos: sus hermanos Alberto, Manuel Raymundo y Martín, junto con sus hermanas María de los Ángeles y Cecilia, quienes lo llevaban en el corazón.

El carácter accesible de Manuel y su gran sentido del humor le granjearon el cariño de todos los que se cruzaron en su camino. Vivía para los placeres sencillos de la vida, y a menudo se le encontraba disfrutando de su café matutino con un cigarrillo en la mano, saboreando los momentos de tranquilidad que se convertían en recuerdos preciados. Tenía una forma especial de alegrar la vida cotidiana, haciendo que las reuniones familiares fueran más alegres y alegres.

Los lazos que forjó fueron profundos y duraderos, y su carácter cariñoso hizo que familiares, amigos y conocidos se sintieran como en casa en su presencia. El velatorio en su memoria se llevará a cabo el 1 de diciembre de 2025 en la Funeraria Martínez de Nogales, Arizona, de 17:00 a 21:00 h.

La vida de Manolo fue un hermoso tapiz tejido con hilos de amor y devoción. Al reunirnos para celebrar su extraordinaria vida, el eco de su risa y calidez quedará grabado para siempre en los corazones de quienes lo amaron. Fue, y siempre será, el corazón de su familia; su mundo giraba en torno a ellos, y de hecho, todos éramos su todo.
