Margarita worked in the domestic and commercial cleaning services industry until she retired in 2006. She enjoyed traveling with family and friends. She dedicated her life to her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and had an amazing faith in God. Her great sense of community showed in the way she was always willing to help anyone in need.

Some would even say she was addicted to playing it. Margarita will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
