Maria was born in in Grenada, Spain on July 4, 1966 to Antonio and Librada Carillo-Pareja. Her family moved to Germany where she attended German High School then Technical School. She married at a young age to Troy Mallory in the Catholic Church there before relocating to the USA. She and Troy would spend the next 30 years together and to their union four children were born; Michelle, Leslie, Alex and Axel Mallory. Although they ended up divorcing their children remained their main priority and they remained friends always.
Maria’s career path led her to property management however her life as a homemaker brought her the most joy. She was always cooking and neatening up her home and even wore an apron around the house as she cared for her family. When her grandchildren came into her life she was overjoyed, a perfect day for her would include spending time with them. She also enjoyed playing bingo and signing karaoke. She LOVED God and we are at peace knowing she is now home in his kingdom. She passed away in Everett, Washington on June 16, 2018.
She is predeceased by her father Antonio Pareja whom she loved and missed dearly-we take comfort in knowing are once again reunited. She leaves behind her beloved children, her mother Librada, her younger brother's; Danielle Pareja and Tony Pareja, Four grandchildren; Faith, Skyler, Aria and Brooklynn as well as many family members in Europe and Washington State.
