Maria was the highlight of our days in the East Wing. She was consistent and kind and often provided the humor we needed in the middle of tough work weeks. Her bringing the dogs to visit was also such a treat. I give her full credit that both Barney and Miss Beasley never growled at me! Gosh will this world miss her immensely. Sending hugs and all our love.

I am so sorry for your loss.  Maria was one of the first people i met when I started working at the White House. She made me feel welcome.  I was always a nervous  wreck and frozen in place at first, especially when speaking  with Mrs.Bush.
One interaction i remember. Mrs Bush thanked me for something.  I just nodded or stood there not responding. Maria  took me out of my misery and said, “ now you say ‘you’re welcome’.  It broke the tension and we all 3 laughed.

My prayers and condolence on the loss of your mother.   My heart is with you during this time.  May she rest in peace.  Vaya con Dios.

I will miss our phone conversations and just keeping in touch after our years together in the White House. We would spend Sunday mornings in the Flower Shop catching up on what our work week was like.  She was a strong willed woman who spoke her mind and could also be very private about her job. May she be at peace and May Gloria, Alex and Gabe know that her life was truly all about them. 🙏❤️
