Maria was a homemaker and loved to sew, sing and dance. Her favorite music was Tex-Mex and Norteño with the accordion. She enjoyed holiday cooking for the family and especially loved making tamales. She would cook a wonderful cabrito meal and she loved baking. Maria enjoyed family gatherings, but was horrible at playing card games!
