Forever loved and missed by our family in La Cieneguilla Pueblo. Our Beloved Riette Mugleston will always be in our hearts. Riette would greet with a large smile every time our children entered the Sweeney Elementary School classrooms without hesitation. We love you dearly, Mrs. Mugleston to the moon and heavens above. Con Mucho Amor, Jose, Kathy Rose, Candace, and JoJo.

I went to college with Riette at the University of Utah; and we were sisters in Delta Gamma sorority. While thumbing through the DG magazine, I read where she had passed. I'm sorry to lose this special friend even though we lost track of each other. I'll never forget her kindness, her smile, her friendship, her loyalty. My sincere sympathy to her family. I'm sure she will be missed. God bless you all. Anne (Huish) Stewart

Ms. Mugleston was my kindergarten teacher at Sweeney Elementary in the early 90's. Being a student in her class were some of my first memories. I can always remember her being very kind and patient with me. As one of her students, I had nothing but great memories of her. My deepest condolences to her family, she was a great woman.

Dearest Cheryl, Leslie snd Jeff, What wonderful memories I have of your mom... laughing, shaking her head , and that assuring pat on the back. I had the privilege of working with Riette at Sweeney Elementary and serving on her management team. What a joy, and privilege it was to work with her. The genuine love she had for all the students of Sweeney was truly a blessing to our entire community! Fly with the angels Riette ...and to her family ...may the love and wonderful memories get you...
