Henrietta Fimbres

Henrietta Fimbres, lovingly known as "Big Hank" and "Queta", of Tucson, Arizona passed away on February 14, 2025, surrounded by loved ones. She was 77, born on July 15, 1947, in San Diego, California and lived a life full of love, laughter, and adventure.

Henrietta had a zest for life and a passion for fun. She loved visiting the casino and making trips to Laughlin, Las Vegas, and Fremont Street, where Lady Luck always welcomed her. She had a special love for Betty Boop, pottery, beautiful jewelry, and, of course, her cherished novelas. Her signature red hair, always styled feathered and layered, was as vibrant as her personality. Thursdays were affectionately known as "Thirsty Thursday," the day she set her rollers - a tradition that brought her joy.

She found happiness in life’s little pleasures, like her monthly pedicures and collecting Happy Meal toys just to give them to her great-grandchildren. Her family was the heart of her world, and she adored spending time with her grandkids and great-grandbabies. Known for her fun-loving spirit, she always reminded those around her to “party hardy hardy.” She also had a playful side, always sneaking away her candies to keep them all to herself.

Henrietta’s warmth, humor, and adventurous soul will be deeply missed but forever cherished in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.

A Memorial Mass celebrating her life will be held 11:00 AM, Friday, March 7, 2025 at Our Lady of Fatima Parish, 1950 Irvington Place, Tucson, Arizona 85746. 

In honor of Henrietta’s love for fun and family, the family invites loved ones to share their favorite memories and stories.
