On March 9, 2018 Margarita Wolleben passed from this earth and into the hands of our Heavenly Father at the age of 80. A resident of Austin Texas for the past 35 years, she was born to Arcadio and Eustolia Mandujano on April 28, 1937 in Celaya Mexico.

Margarita and her late husband James were active members of St. Theresa's Catholic Church since 1983 where Margarita participated in many of the programs offered by the church, some of which include teaching Catechism, Caritas, Rosary for Peace, The Legion of Mary, weekly masses for the elderly (nursing home masses) and The Prison Prayer Ministries.
