-

Agustina Lebron (AKA Tinita), age 78, passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 26 2017 at her daughter's home in Visalia. She was born on August 29, 1939 in El Salvador.

Everyone that met Agustina, fell in love with her. She was the joy and happiness to all her family and friends. Agustina held a variety of jobs throughout her life, but the one that made her the proudest was being a foster grandparen­t for the State. She took pride and joy when she worked with children with special needs. She was "Abuelita Tina" to all her students and teachers. Even throughout her illness, she always worried about others. She wanted everyone that visited her to be fed and taken care of by her children.

Agustina will be missed, but never forgotten, she has touched so many lives. Agustina was a woman of faith, she never once complained about the illness that took her life in one month. She left this strength to her family, who now will continue her legacy to help others. Agustina was the first of our family to immigrate to this great country, she worked hard and brought her children and parents to this land of opportunit­ies. Later, the remaining family members came thanks to her efforts.

Agustina leaves behind her children, Agustin Zepeda, Nelvia Becerra, and Alicia Franco. She also leaves behind her grandchild­ren, Jose Zepeda, Steve Escobar, Cecilia Rooks, Aymie Becerra, Joshua Becerra, Shante Cordova, George Cordova, and Chelsea Cordova as well as nine great grandchild­ren and was expecting her first great-great grandchild.
