She attended Farmington Municipal Schools from kindergarten to high school. She graduated with her GED from San Juan College. Her first job was at Papa Johns, where she worked alongside her big sister, Cassandra. Most recently, she was employed as a loan officer at Sun Loan for 8 years in
Farmington, NM. During her time at Sun Loan, she created lifelong friendships and built connections in her community. She loved to laugh, visit with her customers, and brighten people's days with her warm and outgoing personality.
On her free time, she loved to cook if you went to her house, you would never leave with an empty stomach. She was a football fanatic, her favorite team was the Denver Broncos, and her favorite time of the year was football season. Sunday nights were meant for cheering on her team. She also had a deep love for country music, especially George Strait. One of her favorite memories was attending his concert in Las Vegas, NV an experience she cherished. Above all, Catrina loved being a mother. She cherished every moment spent with her children by taking them to the movies, eating out, shopping, and doing whatever their hearts desired. Her greatest joy came from seeing them happy.
Catrina had a big heart for her parents, taking them out to eat, spoiling them with shopping, always making sure they felt appreciated and cared for. She had a special bond with each of her siblings, sharing humor only they would understand. Their connections were deep, filled with love, laughter, and countless memories that will continue to live on in their hearts. Catrina attended New Hope Assembly of God, where she gave her life to the lord and regularly attended church with her children.
