The Bakersfield Californian 
Petra Rangel
04/29/1949 01/18/2005

Petra Villarreal De Rangel was born on April 29, 1949 in a small village of 
San Del Rio Durango, Mexico. She was born the ninth child of thirteen children 
to Jose and Soledad Villarreal. 

At the age of 13 Petra left Mexico to search for a better life in America. She 
married Fidel M. Rangel and started her own family and maintained a faithful 
wife, dutiful mother to her husband and children until the tragedy of 1990 
when her husband passed away. The struggle now remains with her children: 
Robert Villarreal, Raul, Jimmy, Yesenia, Gregory, and Fidel Rangel. On January 
18, 2005 Petra passed to be with God and reunite with her husband.

Petra was a strong lively woman who loved her family, people, and music. Petra 
in this walk of life helped anyone and everyone who needed it. Whether it 
would be with a simple meal, a place to live, or a few dollars. Many who knew 
her, or heard of her within the Arvin Community, knew she would be the one to 
turn to for help. She said she did it because she remembered her struggle to 
make it here in the States. She was a people person, who had a big heart and 
most importantly a woman of faith. 

She leaves behind six good children, six beautiful grandchildren, and many 
other relatives and friends. 

We love you Mom and will forever miss you.
