She leaves behind her daughters Margie Martinez, Mitzie Moore, and Lisa Rios, who will forever hold her close in their hearts.

Laura was blessed with many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, each one bringing her joy, laughter, and pride. Her gentle spirit, loving nature, and the kindness she showed to others will continue to shine through her family.

Her loved ones will forever cherish the memories she made with them-the laughter, the conversations, and the songs she sang. Laura will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered always.
