Alma Galindo Obituary

Alma Del Real Galindo Oct. 15, 1992 - May 20, 2015 SOUTH BEND - Alma's unmatched beauty was due to being born tapatia in Guadalajara Jalisco, Mexico. Her sincere, happy, optimistic, and positive character reflected her inner beauty. Alma counted with the capacity to lighten up a room with just her mere presence and smile. A multifaceted talented woman, graduated from Clay High School, loved her job as a teller for Wells Fargo Bank, and was an avid entrepreneur, selling Younique cosmetics, Herbal life natural products, and "You should be here" vacationing trips, as well as doing make-up artistry. She cared about bringing out the natural beauty of women trough make-up artistry. Alma had a passion for living life to the fullest. She defined happiness as "everything that surrounds you and makes you want to smile." She cherished time with family and friends, loved to listen to music, and loved dancing. Her perfect day consisted of a sunny day at the beach surrounded by friends. Soccer was her favorite sport and she played for multiple soccer leagues, winning many tournaments. Alma participated and won Reina de Las Fiestas Patrias beauty contest and raised scholarship money for local Hispanic students. Alma was very determined and passionate about her personal goals, however always willing to lend a hand to whoever needed it along the way. She aspired to a career in acting, a business degree, and becoming a dance teacher for kids out of love for her little cousin Chuy, whom she loved dearly. She truly enjoyed each moment of her life without worrying about "what people may think." Alma leaves behind to cherish her memory her Mother, Migdelina Del Real, sisters, Liliana y Vanessa Viorato Del Real, her loving grandparents, Maria A. and Leandro Del Real who raised her, and an extensive circle of close family and friends.

*I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love. ~Leo Buscaglia

Everything that was said about you was true. I got to know alma for about six months at wells fargo. Alma was truly an amazing person. I enjoyed watching you help customers the way you did. Alma genuinely cared about them and always made them feel so welcome. Although it was a short period of time i am glad that i was able to get to know you. Alma you are truly beautiful person inside and out. I will forever remember the memories we shared with you. We will miss your beautiful heart and smile at work. May you rest in peace. My thoughts and prayers go to the family.

I did not know Alma personally, but I felt connected to her as a 22 year old South Bend woman born less than a month after her. My thoughts and prayers have been with her, her family, and her friends since day 1. Alma was a truly beautiful individual and from what I've read and heard from mutual friends that beauty was just as much inner as outer. God gained a beautiful angel. May she R.I.H.

It has been said, 'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.
