Agustina Sanchez Velasquez

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Agustina Sanchez Velasquez who left us on October 21, 2025, at the age of 71.

Agustina Sanchez Velasquez was born on March 8, 1954. At the age of 15, she married the love of her life, Eufemio Jimenez Ojeda where they had six children: Ana Maria, Nicolas, Miguel, Guadalupe, Marcela, and one who passed away at birth. She was the best friend, wife, mother, sister, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Her greatest quality was that despite the hard work she had to do at young age and raising five children she would come home happy. Her children never saw their mother upset, much less angry. She always helped anyone in need, expecting nothing in return. During her free time before her passing, Augustina enjoyed spending time with her family and nature. She often read her Bible outside as she was a devoted Catholic. Agustina is survived by her five children, thirteen grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren.
