Cemetery Mystery: Who Were the Alvarezes? 

Tucked away in historic City Loosley Cemetery lies a polished mystery, three elegant, dark granite markers resting atop a concrete slab with 12-inch curbing. The names etched into stone:

Guadalupe Alvarez

George Alvarez

Carmen Alvarez

We assume they were family… but we don’t know for sure. There's no record of their passing in our archives. No newspaper mentions. No death certificates. Just the quiet presence of their names beneath the Arizona sun.

Who were they? When did they live? Why are their graves so carefully marked, yet their stories lost?

If you recognize these names, or have a family connection, we would love to hear from you.

Help us uncover the story behind the Alvarezes of Loosley Cemetery.
