  1. Margarita, you are such a beautiful sweet and caring person and I say you are because you still exist I truly believe that. You made three amazing kids who love and cherish you. I am so glad that you are no longer in pain and that you are no longer suffering. Although you were taken far too soon. I promise to be there for your kiddos I will always be there if they ever need any help or just someone to talk to. We will miss seeing your beautiful happy face but I know you are still with us in spirit. Rest in peace.

  2. I am deeply saddened by this passing of Margarita. I hope God give strength to Sean and the family to can withstand this moment and be hopeful. Life does take a turn, and the only person who does not know what turn it took is Margarita and we will not forget her.

    Marg! We’ve sure shared some great times together, my friend! I’ll never forget the jokes we’d play on each other at work, our trips to the river or trying to dance like your sister…lol! You are my forever friend & I will see your beautiful face again one day. I know my mama was there to greet you with open arms when you arrived in heaven. Love you always!
