Our beloved "Daddy", and Patriarch: Ysabel Martinez Plasencio of Cache, Oklahoma, went to be with the Lord on Friday, December 15, 2023 at the age of 95 in Plainview, Texas. Ysabel Plasencio was born in Welview, Texas, on November 5, 1928.  Welview, Texas is a small town about 8-10 miles East of Eden, Texas, where he grew up with his parent's, sister's, and brother's, enjoying and tending the land in the heart of Concho County to Farmer's who he said: "They treated me like one of their own.  When I was not allowed in a restaurant, they ate their burgers outside with me in the car like they were family".  Ysabel's Parents:  The late Febronio Plasencio and Guadalupe Martinez Plasencio of Eden, Texas grew up taking care of the family, tending and migrating the lands. They told stories that the clothes people wore and the fruits and vegetables people eat were because someone is working the land, whether a farmer's or the ones working the lands or in the Gins.  The impending Great Depression came and went.  The family searched for a better life and like every American looking for a better life, the family migrated north moving to Paducah in North Texas, and then further north to the state of Nebraska, where to this day you will still see the Plasencio name.  At the young age of seven years old, Ysabel began learning how to be a rancher by fencing and caring for the farmland. He would share tons of stories like how he learned to ride tractors at the young age of eight or nine years old, and how he got kicked by a horse and lived to tell about it.

Ysabel Plasencio married his first love, the late Celia Penilla Plasencio in Eden, Texas in 1944 until her passing on July 27, 1970.  He married his beloved wife of over 50 years, the late Ana Maria Marquez Burciaga de Plasencio in Quanah, Texas in 1973 until her passing on November 29, 2021. Ysabel Plasencio is preceded in death by his beloved children: Isabel (Chavelio) Plasencio, Jr., Alda Plasencio the first, Rudy Plasencio, Carlitos Plasencio and Alejandro Plasencio.  Ysabel's children with his first love, Celia Plasencio in life are:  Olivia Mejia and the late Raul Mejia of Mesquite, Texas, Abraham Plasencio and wife Becky of North Carolina; Adan Plasencio and wife Connie of Plainview, Texas; Eva Plasencio Silva and late husband, Dario Silva of Hale Center, Texas; Johnny Plasencio and wife Rosie of Amarillo, Texas; Ramon Plasencio and wife Frances of Amarillo, Texas. Louisa Plasencio of Mesquite Texas; Norma Baca and husband Pat Baca of Hale Center, Texas; Marcelino Plasencio and wife Mayra, and Isabel Plasencio Jr. and wife Georgia of Midwest City, Oklahoma. Ysabel had three children from Alice, Texas, they are Joe Plasencio, Lino Plasencio and Alda Plasencio of Alice, Texas. Ysabel was Daddy and Stepfather with his beloved Ana Maria Plasencio: Teresa Barraza of Los Angeles, California; Raul Barraza and wife Maria of Quanah, Texas; the Late, Hector Manuel Aleman of Vernon, Texas; Jose Aleman and wife Alberta of Cibolo, Texas, Gustavo Aleman and wife Jane of Vernon, Texas; Herlinda Lucia Aleman of Cache, Oklahoma.

Ysabel Plasencio is preceded in death by the following Siblings: Felicitas (Lily)Blanco, Catherine (Cata) Garcia; Victor Plasencio, Mary Rodriguez, Esteban Plasencio, and Ezekiel Plasencio.

His living siblings are: Febronio Plasencio and late wife Carmen of Mitchell Nebraska; Belen and Husband David Luna of Gering, Nebraska; Virginia and husband Joe Salazar of Gering, Nebraska. Ysabel "Daddy" would enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren and children and telling how he traveled all of Texas and most of the United States where he stopped and worked tending the cotton fields, both working in the fields as well as the Cotton Gins, and gathering fruits and vegetables and seeing the crops taken to the canning factories through the entire United States driving his own car and he didn't need to read the map, he already knew all the roads. And when he had his children in the car, and anyone questioned the number of children, he would say, "these are all my children, thank you."
