She was a very loving and caring woman and always thinking of others. She was a woman of strong faith all her life and enjoyed reading her bible daily. She served the Lord by attending church services and also had played the piano at her hometown (Rio Grande City) church. She was a special education teacher in Mission and McAllen. She enjoyed traveling and going to casinos with her husband and family members. She lived life to the fullest and enjoyed spending time with her family.
