Obituary

Maria Angelita Camero went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Thursday, April 30, 2026 surrounded by her loving family. She was 79 years old.

Maria was born on August 2, 1946 in San Marcos, Texas to the late Jose and Otilia (Cortez) Cerda. She met the love of her life, Dennis Camero, in the seventh grade. Following his service in the United States Marine Corps., they were united in marriage on August 14, 1975 and shared 51 beautiful years together.

Maria is survived by her husband, Dennis Camero and their three children: Victoria (Patrick) Chadwell, Richard (Amy) Camero and Debra (John) Davila; her six cherished grandchildren: Lupe Juarez III, Stephanie Juarez, Daniel Juarez, Richard Camero Jr., Kimberly Jacobs and Amaya Camero; nine great grandchildren and her siblings: Roy Cerda, Jose (Lucy) Cerda, Teresa (John) Hanskett, Mary Ann (Tony) Ragein and David (Eileen) Cerda.

Maria was preceded in death by her brother, Robert Cerda and her sisters: Olga Straz, Beatrice Salcedo and Jesusita Najar; and her beloved dog, “Boo Boo”.

Maria has a deep love for music, especially “oldies but goodies”. Her children fondly remember many nights watching her shuffle through her records playing those that held special memories to her while humming and singing along. She enjoyed road trips to Mackinaw City and St. Ignace with her family, never missing an opportunity to stop at the Casino along the way. Christmas was her favorite time of the year. She enjoyed spending time with her family creating memories her family will cherish forever. Above all Maria will be remembered for her wonderful sense of humor and her infectious laugh, which brought joy to everyone around her.

MaMa, We love you and hold you dear in our hearts and memories until we see you again.

A memorial service will be announce in the near future and held at Deisler Funeral Home. Arrangements have been entrusted to Deisler Funeral Home, 2233 Hemmeter Rd.. Saginaw, MI 48603. Please share your thoughts and memories with the family at the funeral home or through www.DeislerFuneralHome.com

"HELLO SISTER DEAR "is what i would say every time I called her. What can I say about Maria (Helen to me) that people already know, she was a loving caring funny lady with a heart full of love for everyone ❤️. I will miss our early xmas get togethers with our other sisters ,we would go north for a couple days to the casino but also sit in our hotel room and laugh a lot ,if Helen and I weren't having luck I would have her imitate the Bruce Willis cry in a movie we both seen him in, she imitated it to a tee and made me laugh so hard every time. There are a lot of memories I will never forget, I love you sister and miss talking to you, rest in heaven My Sister Dear, I love you and think of you always 💖 your sister Mary Ann P.S. I will make sure Tony doesn't MAX BET.
