She married Joe Facundo Maes on June 11, 1951 in Tucumcari, NM, together they had 10 children. She was the rock of the family, always putting others needs before her own, never asking for anything in return. She had a heart of gold she was “Grandma” to all and will be missed by many.

The family would like to acknowledge her daughter Mary for caring for mom and being with her to the very end.

We have peace in knowing mom is with her heavenly father and we will see her again one day.
