She had a kind loving soul and a smile that was infectious.

Nothing was too difficult and never did she complain!

Maria lived a full life. he was a dedicated and hardworking homemaker, daycare provider and passionate about cooking, baking and gardening. She always saw the beauty in life and loved to share her positivity with others over a slice of her apple pie and a hot cup of tea.
