Eunice A. Cuellar

September 25, 1931 - December 19, 2020

Like a mourning dove in flight Eunice A. Cuéllar was called from this life at 89 years of age. On Saturday, Dec. 19, 2020 the Lord said, “Come home, my daughter. Your battle has been won.” Eunice A. Cuéllar was born on September 25, 1931, in Saltillo, Coahuila, Mexico. After receiving her degree in 1956 from Seminario Teológico Bautista in Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico Eunice married the love of her life, Juan O. Cuéllar, and faithfully served the Lord the rest of her life. During the Cuellar’s ministry in which many lives were won for the Lord, and for 20 years after her husband’s passing, Eunice continued to witness as to how the Lord had made a change in her life, and also continued to lead an exemplary life in the communities where she lived. Her joy and optimism always brought a bright light to many dark days of those around her, her counsel was wise and fulfilling, and her words were always of peace and compassion. She was instrumental in many younger Christian women’s development and growth, and her legacy will live in the lives of those who surrounded her. Eunice Cuéllar was preceded in death by her parents, Benjamin and Angelita Arrazate, and by her husband Juan O. Cuéllar.
