Martina Campillo Hernandez
HITCHCOCK - Mrs. Martina Campillo Hernandez passed from this life Wednesday morning, June 15, 2022, in Hitchcock.
Martina was born on November 11, 1929, in Tamuin, Mexico. She followed the love of her life, Salome, to the states and after a long courtship, they were married in 1969. Martina was a loving mother who raised their 4 children: Jesse, Arnulfo, Martin and Maria. She was a founding member of First Baptist Church of Freddiesville and loved being apart of the church community. Church gatherings were a particularly fun time for Martina because she could share her tasty dishes with everyone. She was active in the Woman’s Auxiliary and taught the adult bible study classes. Her passion was helping others, whether that was to find the Lord, fundraise for a good cause or make a meal that could stick to your ribs. Martina was always a steady member of her church community, and her love will be greatly missed.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Abram and Rosa Campillo; brothers, Jose Campillo, Eleuterio Campillo, Esteven Campillo; sisters, Maria Luisa Campillo, Clementa Campillo, Petra Campillo, Severita Campillo.
