The Bakersfield Californian 
Natividad Castañeda Tivi
March 31, 1925 July 17, 2004

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved and devoted 
mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. On Saturday, July 17, 2004, in 
her 79th year, Tivi found peace and reunited with her beloved husband, the 
late Eloy Castañeda and son, David Castañeda.

Navividad Tivi Castañeda was born in Bakersfield, California on March 31, 
1925, where she resided her entire life. She was predeceased by her parents, 
Daniel and Justina Arias and brothers, Paul Arias and Ladi Arias. Mom is 
survived by her children, Reuben (wife, Sarah), Alfred (wife, Irene), Linda 
(husband, Leandro Portillo), Albert, and Susie (husband, Mike Gonzales); and 
numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She will be sadly missed by 
her surviving sisters, Petra Hernandez and Mary Zapiain; brothers, Fred Arias 
and Ralph Arias; and several nieces and nephews.

Known as a loving and kind soul, Tivi was devoted to her family. Mom enjoyed 
spending her time with family and being outdoors. As a dedicated employee, she 
retired from the Bakersfield City School District with 35 years of service.

Visitation will be held Sunday, July 25 from 2:00 to 8:00 p.m. and Rosary 
services will be held Sunday evening at 7:00 p.m., at Hopson-Anspach Family 
Mortuary, 620 Oregon Street. Mass of Catholic Burial will be held Monday, July 
26, at San Clemente Mission, 1305 Water Street with Msgr. Ralph Belluomini 
officiating. Interment will take place at Union Cemetery, followed by a 
reception at San Clemente Hall.

Pallbearers are Reuben Castañeda, Linda Portillo, Albert Castañeda,, Susie 
Gonzales, Monica Petty and Ralph Arias. Honorary pallbearers are Leandro 
Portillo and Mike Gonzales. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude and 
appreciation to our family and friends for the visits, prayers, offered masses 
and the support and care for our mother. And a special thanks to Dr. A. Haq 
for her excellent care and compassion.
