Angela was born April 8th, 1976 in Tucson, AZ. Most people called her Angela but we all knew her by 'Yaya'. She is her mother Sally and Father Tony's first baby girl. She was a beautiful chubby little baby who smiled all the time. She was raised catholic and received all sacraments except marriage. From the age of 6 to 12 years old she was in folklorico dancing with her cousin Danny. She graduated from Sunnyside High School and graduated with honors from Pima Medical Institute to become a dental assistant. She has 5 wonderful children. Starting with oldest, Hector, Larissa, Desiree, Andrea and Angel. She had problems, as we all do, but one thing we knew was her undying love for her children. She has 8 brothers and sisters....yes 8! Starting from oldest, Tony, David, Marcos, Gabriel, Alicia, Daniel, Juliana and Alexys. Some things you might not know is she loved to sing, dance, draw, talk about dreams, cook, watch old movies and most of all joke around to laugh! Some of her favorite things were the color purple, peacocks, dream catchers, to pick roses, watch butterflies, cruisin' A Mountain, listening to slow jams and hanging out with friends and family. She has 5 grandkids, starting from oldest, Adrian, Danitza, Ayezik, Jayliana and Stephen. She left this world too soon on December 21st, 2017. She will be missed greatly and her memories will live with us always. She has been shown so much love and support throughout her life and one thing we all know is that she has impacted so many lives positively. One thing she did ask prior to going home to heaven was that we all think about our problems and differences with each other and give them to her so that she may give them to God! What an angel...
