Maria "Socorro" Salas Pasturczak

September 28, 1966 - December 21, 2021

María "Socorro" Salas Pasturczak, 55, of Bolingbrook, passed away Tues., Dec. 21, 2021, surrounded by her loyal husband and children after a 12 year battle with cancer. She was born Sept. 28, 1966 in San Francisco del Rincón, Guanajuato, México to Antonio Salas Aguirre and María Socorro Mena Barrera. In 1985, she moved to the U.S. where she worked as a babysitter for 36 years. Her life was transformed on May 9, 1999 when she married the love of her life and proud Brazilian, Mario Pasturczak. Socorro was a devout Catholic, devoted wife and dedicated mother to Mario Jr. and Jorge. Her home was an open invitation to family, friends and neighbors—especially coffee drinkers. She loved "conversando"—about family, food, politics and life's ups-and-downs. She was a fierce warrior and a trusted friend whose life, love and radiating smile will be forever missed. She was preceded in death by her parents and her siblings, Eduardo Salas and Felipe Salas. She is survived by her husband; her sons; and her siblings, Martha Vera (Ricardo), Jorge Salas, Eva Rodriguez (Eduardo), Lucy Tavares (Jesus), and Diego Salas. Visitation Monday, December 27th from 4:00-8:00pm. Funeral Tuesday, December 28th 9:15am from McCauley-Sullivan Funeral Home 530 W. Boughton Rd. Bolingbrook, IL to St. Dominic Catholic Church, Mass 10:00am Interment Hillcrest Cemetery. María “Socorro” Salas Pasturczak, 55, de Bolingbrook, falleció el martes, 21 de diciembre de 2021, rodeada por su esposo leal y sus hijos después de una batalla de 16 años contra el cáncer. Ella nació el 28 de septiembre de 1966 en San Francisco del Rincón, Guanajuato, México, hija de Antonio Salas Aguirre y María Socorro Mena Barrera. En 1985, se mudó a los EE. UU. donde trabajó como niñera por más de 36 años. Su vida fue transformada el 9 de mayo de 1999, cuando se casó con el amor de su vida y brasilero orgulloso, Mario Pasturczak. Socorro era una católica devota, esposa leal y dedicada madre a Mario Jr. y Jorge. Su casa era una invitación abierta a su familia, a sus amigos y a sus vecinos, especialmente para los aficionados del café. Le encantaba conversar sobre la familia, la comida, la política y los altos y los bajos de la vida. Ella será recordada como una guerrera feroz y amiga de confianza cuya vida, amor y sonrisa radiante extrañaremos para siempre. Ella fue precedida en la muerte por sus padres y sus hermanos, Eduardo Salas y Felipe Salas. Le sobreviven su esposo; sus hijos; sus hermanos, Martha Vera (Ricardo), Jorge Salas, Eva Rodriguez (Eduardo), Lucy Tavares (Jesus), y Diego Salas; y amados sobrinos y sobrinas. La visitación se recibe en la funeraria McCauley-Sullivan en Bolingbrook de 4:00-8:00 p.m., el lunes, 27 de diciembre. La Misa de Cuerpo Presente se celebrará el martes, 28 de diciembre a las 10:00 a.m. en la parroquia de St. Dominic en Bolingbrook. Al término de la misa se entierre.
