Monica Ware

Dec 29, 1954 — Sep 10, 2026

Texarkana

Monica Lita Ware (71) was born in San Francisco, California, to Carmen and Sebastian Melendez. She was one of four siblings, sharing a loving bond with her brother, Jack Melendez, and her sisters, Bernadette Lewis and Yolanda Rodriguez, who preceded her in death.

Monica later married Willis D. Ware, and together they built a family filled with love, memories, and cherished moments. Through their marriage, Monica also gained additional family whom she welcomed and loved as her own.

Monica was the loving mother of three children: Anita Daniels, her daughter, and twin sons, Timothy Ware and Sebastian Ware.

She was also a proud grandmother and great-grandmother. Her grandchildren include Mont Bolden, Brandon Rayfield, Kolina Johnson, Phillicia Crawford, Dajah Crawford, Aiden Ware, and Jaden Ware, along with her other beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Monica’s family was one of the greatest parts of her life. She loved watching her children and grandchildren grow, start families of their own, and create memories together. Her love extended beyond those connected to her by blood. She welcomed people into her life, cared for them, and made them feel like family.

Her legacy is one of love, faith, family, kindness, and strength. She will forever be remembered for the lives she touched, the love she gave, and the memories she created.

Although our hearts are heavy with her absence, we find comfort knowing that Monica has been reunited with her loved ones who went before her. Her earthly journey has ended, but the love she gave will continue through every generation of her family.
