Margaret Rosales Obituary

Rosales, Margaret Salas
Went to Heaven and met Jesus early morning May 24, 2012. Margaret was born in Taos, NM on August 9, 1919 and came to Arizona with her family as a young girl in 1928. She loved Arizona but always spoke fondly about Taos. We say goodbye to the Matriarch of the Rosales Family, but greeting Margaret in Heaven are her loving husband Manuel, her precious son Morris, and her lovely daughter Mary Ann Valentine. Also preceding her into eternity are her father, mother, brothers and sister. Those Margaret leaves behind on earth are sons Conrad and Manuel Jr., daughters Viola Verdugo (Yuma) and Josie Acosta. She leaves 20 grandchildren, 40 great grandchildren and 11 great-great grandchildren all whom she loves dearly. Margaret is also survived by her brother Edward Salas (Scottsdale) and sister
Goria Salas Parker (NM). Her memorial celebration will be held Saturday June 2nd at 11:00 am at Palm Canyon Assembly, 6033 E. Arbor Ave in Mesa.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

'Aunt Margie' was a wonderfully sweet lady. We were so happy to visit with her this past March & let her know how much she was missed & loved. This photo of her with Eddie and I was taken during our visit in 2006. She sure will be greatly missed.
