Maria Jesus De Inguanzo was 68 years old (or 21 and holding as she would say). She passed away January 14, 2017 at Mercy General Hospital, Sacramento, CA. Maria was born May 28, 1948 in New Mexico and grew up in the city of Albuquerque. She was the daughter of Vera Perez. She was once married to Ismael Inguanzo and had three children, Ismael Inguanzo, Jr., Salvador Inguanzo (passed away after being born) and Elvira Inguanzo.

She was a homemaker the majority of her adult life. She has seven grandchildren, Briana, Diego, Alexia, Anjulissa, Noelani, Isabella and Antonio. She had a dog named Vicky who had been her companion for the past 4 years whom she also loved very much. Maria was a member of St. Lawrence Catholic Church and as well a couple of community centers for the elderly in New Mexico and here in Sacramento. There she loved to play bingo,do arts and crafts, and spend time with her friends. We all know how she much loved her yarn and beads. Maria will always be remembered for her religiousness and her admirable character and for her fortitude, integrity and never ending compassion.
We will never forget her smile, her laugh, the was she sang, the way she blasted her music while cleaning and even the many times she cooked and took care of us.
Every memory of Maria will forever live on through us.
