Irene Chavez Moya

December 10, 1932 — January 8, 2021

Irene Chavez Moya, 88, passed away Friday, January 8, 2021, peacefully in her home surrounded by her loving family. She was born December 10, 1932 to Alejandro Chavez and Solema Serna in Springerville where she lived her entire life.

She was deeply loved and will be greatly missed.
