Anita SANDOVAL Obituary



SANDOVAL, Anita ''Ruby''
The Kingdom of Heaven just received its brightest star. Anita Sandoval left this world surrounded by her family on November 1, 2010. She was born in Colorado in 1920, but became a resident of Sacramento in 1951. A few of her fondest childhood memories were playing in the ashpits, snatching crab apples from neighbor's trees and driving her brother's Model T (without his permission). She was sole survivor of her family, preceded in death by her parents, Florencio and Margie, brother Freddy, and sisters, Josie, Stella and Patsy. Her firstborn child, Patricia preceded her as did her great grandson, Jakob. She is survived by her children Rick, George, Nonnie, and Rosie and son-in-law Jeff; her grandchildren Patty and Lisa and her great grandchildren, Tricia, Scotty, Rachel, Zachery, Paul and Selena along with numerous nieces and nephews. She never wavered from her faith in God. His Word guided her in life. She happily shared her faith with family and friends. She was a prayer warrior. Her love for all in her family was without end. We will see you again, Mother. Services will be private. Our sincere thanks to the kind staff on the 5th floor and in the ICU at Mercy San Juan Hospital.
