Mima worked in the embroidery industrial, loved to cook, listen to music, dance and most of all spending time with her family. She lead a beautiful life full of love and laughter. She was devoted to God and her family; loved unconditionally, was kind, giving and selfless.

Mima is survived by her daughter, Norma; grandchildren, Mary and Rick; great grandchildren, Ricky, Amanda, Olivia, Caitlyn and Justin; great-great grandchildren, Alvin and Otto; bonus grandchildren, nieces, nephews, siblings and lots of loving family and friends. Mima taught her family to work hard, dream big, respect others, honor your family, love passionately and enjoy life. Her presence lit up a room with her bright smile, joy for life, elegance, humor and her charismatic personality.

Mima is gone from our sight, but never from our hearts. We will cherish the memories and the wisdom she shared.
