Malinda Tenorio, 32, of Silver City entered eternal rest July 11, 2020. She survived by her children Javin, Nyissa, her step daughter Alexis, her husband Adrian Melendez, parents Leroy and Deeandra Tenorio, her sisters Latisha & Mary Tenorio-Madrid their children Junior, Issac, and Zaniyah, sister Tamara Tenorio & Oscar Gomez and their children Mila, and Kiyana. 

Malinda was a caring and loving mother, daughter, sister, and wife, who would light up any room she entered. She lived for her children. She had one of the biggest hearts and would go above and beyond to help anyone in need. She was spontaneous, crazy, outgoing, and her happy, uplifting personality was contagious to all. 

When she was around, there was never a dull moment. She would make sure that everyone was laughing and having fun. She was known as the “cool” auntie and would spare no expense to make sure her children, nieces, and nephews would have a blast every time they were with auntie “Min". You are so deeply loved Min. 

There is not a day that will go by that you will not be missed. Even though we didn’t get to say goodbye, we will forever know, you’re our angel in the sky. Cremation will take place at Terrazas Crematory. Arrangements are with Terrazas Funeral Chapels and Crematory “Trusted care for the one you love” ~ 575-537-0777.  To send condolences, visit www.terrazasfuneralchapel.com.

We didn’t know that morning

That God would call your name.

In life we loved you dearly,

In rest we do the same.

We miss you so much, 

and more everyday. 

We love you much more, 

than words can ever say.

It broke our hearts to lose you, 

You did not go alone;

For part of us went with you,

The day God called you home.

You left us beautiful memories,

Your love is still our guide;

And though we cannot see you,

You are always by our side.

Our family chain is broken, 

And nothing seems the same;

But as God calls us one by one,

The chain will link again.
