She accepted Jesus Christ as her LORD and Savior in her pre-teen years at El Arroyo Methodist Church. A church founded by her grandfather, in Rio Grande City.

“Pita”, as she was known by her friends and family was a prayer warrior. Pita prayed daily for family the needs of the less fortunate, and her church family.

She was a giver. Pita supported her church, missions, and worked and served Heavenly International Food Pantry for 10 years, serving over 100 families each month.
