Our mom, LaGina Metcalf, was reunited with her beloved Clarence in heaven on September 16, 2021. Mom had just celebrated her 99th birthday on August 28th. It was an honor for Barbara (Charles) and Vickie ( Stan) to call her our mother. Mom shared many happy times with her sister Claudia and sister-in-law Idelle. She was the proud grandmother of Ron (Ashley), Chad (Beth), Vickie (Jeff), Sarah (Stephen), Becky (Justin) and Shona. Mom adored her great grandchildren Jordan, Anna, Josh, Ashley, Abby, Brad, Brooke, Mila, Suzanne, Ben, Jack, Neha, Noah, Jackson and her newest twin great grandbabies Oliver and Isabella. Mom was blessed with a Brazilian family from our exchange sister Sueli (Sue) with Fabiana, Igor, Marina (Matt), Julia and André. Her love extended further to many nieces, nephews, cousins and dear friends.
Mom loved Morgan Hill and being involved in the community. Volunteering for 4th of July Festivities, Senior Advisory Committee, Historical Society, Downtown Flower planting and many other local causes. You may have met her at Morgan Hill Elementary School where she was the school secretary for 27 years or at her most favorite place, Uesugi Farms Pumpkin Patch where she worked for over 30 years.
A celebration of life will be held September 26, 2021 at the Morgan Hill Community Center, 17000 Monterey (at Dunne), at 3:30 pm. Donations can be made in Mom's name to the San Martin Presbyterian Church, P.O. Box 203, San Martin, CA 95046 or the Morgan Hill Freedom Fest, P.O. Box 1776, Morgan Hill, CA 95038.
