It is with heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our mother, Sally Ortega Bojorquez. Sally passed away in her bed while residing in Oxnard, CA. We deeply mourn her loss. Sally married Paz Bojorquez and had four children: Emelia , Erminia, Paz, and Christina. Sally is survived by her four children, 10 grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren, and 3 great-great-grandchildren.
Sally liked visiting different churches around the valley to attend prayer meetings and donating her time to cook and help the Priest.
Sally retired from Brophy Preparatory College as a faculty cook. Sally stayed busy with Prison Ministries and held prayer meetings at the jail. She had no judgment, and she would come home from the prayer meetings telling us she ran into a cousin of ours and they said "hi".
We hope you rest in peace and we will carry you in our hearts. We miss you and "You Are My Sunshine!"
