dreams before herself. She is survived by her husband, sister, five children, and her granddaughter. Aimee was incredibly proud that all of her children graduated from college. Therese, her oldest, is a recipient of three Emmy Awards. Her son Tony is a teacher in the Oakland Public School District and is married to Frances Joe. Louise is a physical therapist in San Francisco. John is an actor in New York City. Bob lives in Reno and recently completed two business degrees. Aimee’s only grandchild Elizabeth is beginning her career in San Francisco.

Happy marriages of 64 years are rare but Aimee was the model wife and mother. She went to El Paso with her husband so that he could become the superintendent of the Ysleta School District in 1992. Upon her husband’s retirement she and Tony decided to remain in the area. They developed a thoroughbred breeding and racing farm in La Union, New Mexico. Her Catholic faith enriched her life. She served as a eucharistic minister at her parish.

In all her 83 years she was loved not only by her husband and family but by all who knew her. Her family has chosen to postpone services until it is safe to gather for a celebration of her life.
