Ines Palacios age 80 passed away peacefully on October 20, 2022, in the presence of her beloved children, and family members.
Ines Palacios was born in Texas, but she made Chicago her home for over 50 years. Ines raised a family of six with her husband Antonio+. Over the years, she has become a strong advocate for her Pilsen community, involving herself and taking personal interest in community affairs. She became known as Má Palacios by most of the neighborhood and, especially, the neighborhood kids. Ines never refused help to those who needed it and, being a living example of “It takes a village”, Ines often gave a helping hand in raising many of the neighborhood children.
Ines is preceded in death by her parents Santos and Amanda; brothers, Jose and Roy.
Ines was the beloved wife of the late Antonio Palacios; mother of Antonio “Tony” Jr., Ricardo “Ricky” (Sylvia), Heriberto “Eddie” (Carolina), Belinda “Nena” (Henry+), Patricia “Patsy” (Arturo), and Ruth “Ruthie” (Camilo); Grandmother to Brittni, Arturo “BT”, Christian, LeaLani, Paryss, Kaila, Eliane “Eli”, CJ, Ricardo “Little Ricky”, Raygan, and great-grandmother to DJ “Nudy”.
