Alisha Gonzales Obituary

Alisha Rae Gonzales

Alisha Rae Gonzales passed away peacefully on March 9, 2015 at the age of 34 in Reno, NV. She was born September 22, 1980 in Castro Valley, California. Alisha was a bright, loving soul who made people laugh, dance and filled the room with joy. Alisha was filled with generosity and was truly a beautiful person inside and out. She leaves behind her Mom (Anna), Dad (Raymond "Jesse"), Sister (Nicole), Brother-in-law (Sonny) and her most beloved niece Nissa Jolene. She is also survived by her step-Dad, her Grandmother, several aunts and uncles, many cousins and friends. She gave so much love to the world, and so many people loved her in return. Her smile could light up a room, and she always brought humor and laughter everywhere she went. Please join us in celebrating her life on March 21, 2015 at 1pm. A service will be held at Mt. View Cemetery in the Reverence Chapel in Reno, NV.
