Our beloved Anita passed into the loving arms of Our Lord Jesus Christ on December 16, 2016 after a very brief illness with her loving family praying at her side. She was 53. Anita is preceded in death by her parents Sal and Priscilla, sister Sally Ann, sister-in-law Margie, granddaughter Estrella (Star) and grandson Zeke.

She is also survived by nieces and nephews Janelle, Jennifer, Jenae, Nick, Vanessa, Victoria, Josh, Suzette, Steven, Amber, Robert Jr., Kymberly, Jake, Abraham, Buddy and 24 great-nieces and nephews.

Anita so loved her family, Especially, her grandchildren, Josiah, Jeremy, Jason, Shyray, Zoey, Lylianna and Natalia. They were the light of her life. Anita was a loving mother and person whom always put herself and her whole heart into anything she did and anyone she met. She cared for her entire family with the love only a mother knows. She was our Golden Rock and wanted to “SAVE THE WORLD”.

Anita may best be known for her talent in cooking where she cooked at her father’s coffee shop (Chez Sal’s) in the Bataan Bldg. for more than 20 years feeding her family and friends. She then began a career in automotive as Office Manager and Jane of all trades at Santa Fe Brake, where not only did she tend to her customers whom she so loved, she also tended to her two brothers like a mom, just as she did for her entire family.
Most recently she worked at Pet Suites tending to our beloved four legged friends. She is greatly missed.

Cremation will take place. A rosary will be recited on Monday December 26, 2016 at 6:00 p.m. at Rivera’s Funeral Home at 417 Rodeo Road. A celebration of her life will be on Tuesday December 27, 2016 at 1:00p.m. at the Vineyard Church at 1352 San Juan Dr. in Santa Fe.
