Maria (Mary) A. Carrasco, age 78, passed away Monday, May 18, 2020 at McLaren Flint Hospital. She was born February 5, 1942 in Robstown, Texas to Berandino and Cristina (Ortiz) Carrasco.
A loving mother, Mary was an outstanding cook and enjoyed preparing meals for her family and friends, most especially over the holidays. For many years, she worked at her family’s restaurant, El Farolito, on Corunna Road in Flint. She was a devout Christian and member of Holy Redeemer Catholic Church. She was feisty, funny, generous and so very loving.
