She worked for the Lodi Unified School District (LUSD) for more than 25 years as an instructional aide and was loved by her many students and peers. She had a passion for education and really enjoyed working in the classroom helping her students. Her love of gardening is demonstrated by the dozens of roses and other plantings she tended to throughout the years in her garden. She thoroughly enjoyed spending time with her family, extended family (Tovar’s and Loredo’s) and her grandkids more than anything.
