I am trying to reach out to the family of Margaret, I have the original copy of thepicture of her that matches the picture on this obituary that was my late grandfather's and I have some questions. I used to talk to Margaret on the phone as a child but was too young to understand who she was in my life. If someone is comfortable enough to contact me please reach out.

Vasquez Family,
This beautiful soul has entered into Heaven. Our Loving Lord wrapped his arms around his daughter to welcome her home. Her job was fulfilled by being a beautiful wife, and a loving mother and grandmother. The gifts that our Lord blesses us with are to be well taken care of and never to be taken for granted. Joe, your wife will be seen in every sunshine and in every thing else that says "beauty". JESUS WE TRUST IN YOU!
