Her family and friends were everything to her. She valued spending quality time with her husband, children, grandchildren and friends. Whether it was a family get together, party, concert, eating at her favorite restaurant or hanging out at the beach with her husband, she always enjoyed every moment. She is survived by her husband of 27 years, Teofanes, her 5 children, Pam, Sue, Tyrone, Bryan and Darren, 4 grandchildren and her extended stepfamily in the Philippines. A memorial service will be held at St. Martha’s Catholic Church, Murrieta, CA on Thursday, October 7, 2021. Interment will follow in the Murrieta Cemetery District.
