"With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Maria Isabel Cardozo, at age 57, on October 17, 2024. Her passing was sudden and unexpected, leaving a void in the lives of all who knew her.
Our dear mother was born on September 28, 1967, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. In 1999, our family moved to the United States, where she embraced a new life while always honoring her roots. Maria was a lively, joyful spirit-a true ray of sunshine whose presence filled any room with warmth and kindness. She worked as a dedicated babysitter, a role she cherished, touching the lives of countless families.
Maria was known for her deep love and devotion to her family. She was a supportive and loving mother to her two children and took every opportunity to make those around her feel cherished. She had a special love for her dogs and enjoyed surrounding herself with flowers, symbols of the beauty she brought into our lives. She baked cakes and sweet treats for every special occasion, creating memories for her loved ones that will be treasured forever.
Maria is survived by her two children and husband, who will miss her more deeply than words can express, and a family that will forever feel the warmth of her love and care. Though her time with us was brief, we will always remember her grace, kindness, and love."
