Life story

A beloved wife, mother, sister, and friend to many, Rosalinda Ybarra entered into heaven on November 22, 2022. Born in Harlingen, Texas to Juliana and Epifanio Llanas. Rosalinda spent her childhood in Shafter, CA and settled in Bakersfield, CA. At the age of 27 she met her best friend and now husband, Serafin Ybarra III. She married on June 25, 1994 and has been married to him for 28 years until her passing. Rosalinda has been working in schools for over 20 years with 13 of those years working for Panama Elementary as a school clerk. Rosalinda loved working in school and seeing the children and helping them succeed. She always prioritized her family and always stayed true to her faith in the Catholic Church. She spent every Sunday for ten years volunteering as a teacher's aide with the third-grade communion class.

Rosalinda was a caring and loving mother to her three children, Serafin Ybarra IV, Victoria Tatum, and Trinity Ybarra. She was always there whenever we needed help or just to talk. She was supportive - whether it be in school or sports and always pushed us to become better in life and as a person. She had the personality that could light up a room and a laugh that could bring smiles to all. She was hardworking and was always on the go - she could never just sit down and relax, she always had to be doing something - whether it was cleaning the house or making dinner for the family, she always did it with lot of love.

Rosalinda leaves behind her husband, Serafin Ybarra III; children, Serafin Ybarra IV, Victoria Tatum, and Trinity Ybarra; son-in-law, Michael Tatum; siblings, Irma Benitez, Manuel Llanas, Epifanio Llanas Jr., Ricardo Llanas, Geronimo Llanas, and Joe Llanas. Rosalinda is now at peace and no longer suffering and is beside her late mother, Juliana Llanas, late father, Epifanio Llanas, and late sister, Maria Rodriguez.
