She attended school in Grand Island and spent most of her life in Grand Island and Central City. Her past employment included caring for children, cleaning area businesses, caring for the elderly at nursing homes, cleaning at the Grand Theater often with the help of her grandkids, and waitressing at the Central City Caf. Chencho's greatest blessing will always be her family. As her family grew from her own four children, Chencho welcomed everybody into her heart and home. Once a person was welcomed into Chencho's family, they always had a place in her home. She loved to cook and bake large meals for family gatherings, crochet and care for her house plants. As a devoted grandma and great-grandma, Chencho was blessed to be able to spend time with all the little ones. She is survived by her children, Ray Moreno, Christy (Yojander Luengo) Moreno, and Helen (Raymond) Ramirez all of Grand Island; daughter-in-law, Eileen Lemburg and son-in-law, Jose Marcelino Gutierrez; 19 grandchildren and 26 great-grandchildren; brothers, Stanley, Tony and Mark; sister, Betty; numerous cousins, nieces, nephews and friends. Chencho was preceded in death by her parents, son, Marvin Moreno Jr.; siblings, Henrietta, Tina, Vince, Phyllis, Larry; sister-in-law, Becky; best friend and cousin, Mary Stella Cabellero; grandchildren, Christopher, Sierra and baby Marcelino. Memorials are suggested to the family to be designated at a later date.
