I first met Chonita at a large family reunion in 1982. She had been married to Frank, a cousin to my husband Edward H. Magdaleno. Chonita was so cheerful and such a delight to meet.

She will be much missed by her family and friends, and all who knew her. I send thoughts of love and friendship from my home in Port Hueneme, California. Most sincerely, Lamora Magdaleno. (93 yrs).

To my Tia Chonita,
We will miss you! I will miss your stories, and how each time I would come over you would show the pictures of the family. I could see the love you had for each and everyone one of us.
Love,
Vanesa Hill (Encinas)
