Ms. Guzman was born on Jan. 8, 1961, to parents Alfonso and Ofelia Guzman, in Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico. She came to Watsonville in 1976. She started working in the fields upon her arrival and later went on to work for J.M. Smucker's for 25 years.

She enjoyed sewing, knitting, gardening, cooking and baking for her loved ones and in her down time she loved playing video games and bingo. But above everything else, she truly loved spending time with her family, especially making the holidays special for her grandchildren, whom she loved dearly.
