Mary (Enriquez) Facio was born on June 3, 1955, in La Union, New Mexico. She is the daughter of Audencio and Genoveva Enriquez, who were also residents of La Union.

Rudy Facio is from El Paso, Texas. He was born on October 25, 1953, to Socorro and Alfonso Facio both of El Paso, Texas.

Mary is the mother of three children from a previous marriage. She later married Rudy, who adopted them. They then had a son together. Her children are Danny, Tiffany, Priscilla, and Michael. Danny has a body shop out of town. Tiffany works from home as a medical biller. Priscilla works at the Outlet Mall of El Paso. Michael is a sous chef for Wolf Gang Puck in Dallas, Texas. 

Rudy and Mary would help La Union Helping Hands for the Christmas holidays. They would visit and help distribute food and gifts for the elderly. Did you know that Rudy is the first officially recognized Santa Claus of La Union Helping Hands. He enjoyed playing that part.

After 42 years, Rudy retired from Border Steel which is now known as Vinton Steel. 

Rudy is enjoying his retirement. Mary and Rudy enjoy their lives together, spending their time with each other.  They are blessed to have eight grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

"We would like to thank La Union Helping Hands for choosing us as their Seniors of the Month for April. May God bless all of you."

Congratulations Mary and Rudy. You are very deserving of this honor.  Thank you for all you have done for our community!
