Maurine Costa, beloved mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, the 30th of May 2021, surrounded by her loving family. Let there by no doubt that angels led her into heaven.

Maurine was born on the 16th of April 1939, and grew up in O'Donnell and Weslaco, TX. It was in Weslaco where she met and married Frank Costa Sr. Frank adopted her first son, Randy Costa (wife Laura), and together they had five more children, Terri Flippen (husband Greg), Frank Costa Jr. ( wife Michelle), Toni Jasek (husband Gary), Gary Costa, Tiffani Loxton ( husband Richard), and Liz Boudreaux (husband David). Soon after the simple civil ceremony, she converted to Catholicism and they were later married again in the Catholic church. She was a most wonderful mother, delicious cook, and an impartial referee to the many quarrels her children got into.

In addition to her surviving children and their spouses, she is survived by nine grandchildren, Audrey Harton, Stevi Clark, Afton Straus, Ryan and Randi Jasek, Frank III and Hayden Costa, Reagan and Payton Loxton, and Gatlin and Garrett Boudreaux. She is also survived by five great grandchildren, Maci, Molly, and Julia Harton, Scarlett Clark, and Paisley Costa.

She is preceded in death by her husband, Frank Costa Sr, son Gary Costa, parents Hubert Smith and Bonnie Caldwell, and brothers Mack Smith, George Smith, and Curtis Smith.

Friends are cordially invited to a visitation with the family from two o'clock until to four o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday, the 6th of June, in the Jasek Chapel of Geo. H. Lewis & Sons, 1010 Bering Drive in Houston, where the recitation of the Holy Rosary will commence at half-past three o'clock.

The funeral service is to be conducted at eleven o'clock in the morning on Monday, the 7th of June, also in the Jasek Chapel of Geo. H. Lewis & Sons.

The Rite of Committal is to follow, via an escorted cortege, in the Stations of the Cross section of Forest Park Westheimer Cemetery in Houston.

Honored to serve as casket bearers are Gary Jasek, Richard Loxton, David Alexander, Ryan Jasek, Frank Costa III, and Hayden Costa.

The family wishes to thank all the wonderful caregivers over the past few years, Franco, Ellen, Connie, Blanco, and Debbie.

May the Lord Jesus put his hands on our eyes also, for then we too shall begin to look not at what is seen but at what is not seen. May he open the eyes that are concerned not with the present but with what is yet to come, may he unseal the heart's vision that we may gaze on God in the Spirit, through the same Lord, Jesus Christ, whose glory and power will endure throughout the unending succession of ages. (Prayer of Origin, 185-254 AD)
