A woman of great faith and a devoted catholic, she prayed over her rosary daily. Luz truly lived life to the fullest always making sure her family was taken care of. She had a loving personality and made friends wherever she went and was always the life of the party. Luz was fearless, an explorer who loved to travel and her laughter, smile and loving ways will be greatly missed by many dear relatives and friends. Luz would love to be remembered as the classy, elegant, hilarious and hard-working self-dependent woman that she was.
