Socorro Fraire Gomez was born June 27, 1941, in San Jose De Reyes, Durango, Mexico, to Guadalupe Fraire Palacio and Ludivina Gomez Castaneda. He died on Monday, January 13, 2025, at Mercy Hospital in Ardmore, OK, at the age of 83.
Socorro was raised in Mexico and migrated to the United States with his family. He married the former Mary Ann Perez on February 8, 1965, in Lubbock, TX. They eventually moved to Abilene, TX, and in 1986 they moved to Marietta, OK.
Socorro went to work as a young man and hard work is all he knew. If he was not working at his job, he would tinker around the house or mow his grass. He was not one to sit still, but on rare occasions when he did, he would relax by listening to music. Socorro loved spending time with his family and watching them grow up. He considered it as one of his greatest achievements.
He is preceded in death by his parents; son, Arnold Fraire; two brothers and one sister.
