Jesusa Sarah Reyes died on Dec. 12 at her home in Watsonville. She was 94.
The most important thing in Ms. Reyes' life was spending time with her family and loved ones. Despite her financial struggles, she was willing to help loved ones any way she could, reminiscent of the poor widow in Luke 21:2-4. Some of her passions included cooking, dancing and working out.
She leaves five sons, three daughters and more than 60 grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She's preceded in death by her sons Henry and Robert Florez as well as her life partner, Efrain Merino. She leaves a huge void in the hearts of her loved ones, and she will be missed.
There was a viewing at Mehl's Colonial Chapel on Jan. 6. Funeral mass will be celebrated at St. Patrick's Church today at 10am and burial will follow at Valley Public Cemetery, 2445 E. Lake Ave. A celebration of life will take place at 95 Alta Vista Drive in Watsonville, from 2-5pm.
