She raised five children alone before it was a norm, supporting herself and her children selling cosmetics. She was aided in this by the close relationship she had with her brothers, Raul and Edgar, and her sisters, Laura, Sonia, Consuelo, and Gloria. I will always hear their voices singing “God Bless America” late at every family gathering.
She was predeceased by her daughter, Martha.
She is survived by her sister Gloria and her sister- in-law Maria, her children Don, Max, Henri, Sandra and Sandra’s husband of 31 years, Paul, her grandchildren Cindy, Christian, Christie, Tracy, Maggie and Ian. Also by her great-grandchildren Luke, Holly and Noelle. She loved them all.
A memorial service will be held on Saturday June 27, 2020 at 10am at Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home. The
Chapel will be open at 9:30am
