Felicia Rivers

Felicia Mae Rivers, a courageous and spirited soul, was born on February 23, 1990, in Albuquerque, NM, USA. She was known for her infectious laughter and lively spirit, making her presence felt in every room she entered. Felicia's life, however short, was brimming with love, laughter, and the courage to face challenges head-on. As poet Emily Dickinson beautifully penned, "That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet," and so it was with Felicia's life.

Felicia was a shining beacon in the food industry. Her dedication to her work was matched only by her commitment to her family. She was a loving mother to her daughters Lilian, Iris, and Moon. Her love for them was boundless, and her pride in their accomplishments was evident to all who knew her. She was the beloved sister of Molly Rivers, Shelby Rivers, Sabina Velazquez, Jazmin Velazquez, and Amber Velazquez and cherished daughter of Stacey Velazquez. Felicia's love and humor have left an indelible imprint on their hearts.

Felicia was preceded in death by her father, Norman Frank Rivers, and her grandmother, Betty Lee Rivers. Though they are no longer with us, their spirit lives on in Felicia's memory and the love they shared. In the words of Leo Buscaglia, "Death is a challenge. It tells us not to waste time… It tells us to tell each other right now that we love each other." Felicia lived her life embodying this philosophy, loving fiercely, living passionately, and leaving a legacy of kindness and strength.
