Margarita was born July 20, 1942 as the youngest of 18. She passed away March 25, 2022 peacefully at home while holding the hand of her daughter. She passed sooner than expected before arrangements could be made.

She leaves behind a husband & daughter.

Margarita was my mom. She worked hard on her passions. She was born in Los Alamitos, CA as the youngest of 18. After adopting me, she attended Cal State Long Beach to receive her Master's in Social Work. She then worked for Orange County Social Services as a bilingual social worker who helped medically fragile young children. She worked countless hours days, nights, & weekends helping them until she became injured & had to go on medical disability. She always loved Scrapbooking & stamping so turned to that as a hobby making beautiful albums & cards. While doing so, her & my dad always supported me in school as well as sports & after school activities. I guarantee you could always hear her cheering me on from the stands at every basketball game!

I usually don't like asking for help but I'm doing this for my dad & I to help ease the financial aspect of a heartbreaking circumstance. Any donations will be put to her funeral costs & any extra money will help pay off her medical expenses left. Even if the goal isn't reach any little bit helps.

Thanks for taking the time to read this!
