She was born in Villa Madero, Mexico, in 1935 to Jose Maria and Elviria Gamino. Maria was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother, and friend whose warmth and kindness touched everyone she met.
Maria had a deep love for the outdoors and nature, finding joy in the beauty of the world around her. She also had a passion for sewing, creating pieces that reflected her creativity and care. Her hobbies brought happiness to her life and to those who shared in her talents.
Maria was preceded in death by her parents and her beloved husband Jose Filomeno. She is survived by her cherished family: Inocencia (Benito-deceased), Everardo (Alicia), Trinida (Piedad), Gustavo (Odilia), Manuel, Porfiria (Reynaldo), Yolanda (Felipe), and Noemi (Juan), 45 grandchildren, many great-grandchildren as well as some great-great-grandchildren.
Her legacy of love, strength, and creativity will live on in the hearts of her family and friends.
