Maria Guadalupe Molina, age 55, died on Saturday, November 2, 2024, in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
She was born on November 17, 1968, to Josefina and Daniel Vizcaino.
Mary was never scared to take on something new and did everything with honesty and love. She started every conversation with a joke full of sarcasm that if you didn’t know her, you would think she was serious. After laughing and continuing her conversation, 5 more jokes would come and eventually it would end with her contagious sweet laugh that was so precious to hear. Her positive energy filled the room so naturally. She didn’t even have to try to make friends, her personality would win everyone over. She was always laughing, dancing, or singing. If the music was on, fun was sure to follow! And no doubt if Selena or Jenni Rivera came on, it would turn into her party. She would have the time of her life. The biggest piece of her that will truly be missed was her incredible patience. She led a life that showed meaningful acts of love and service. Most importantly, she kept God front and center. The most selfless person who served everyone else and kept herself at the end of the line like God intended it to be. The golden road of Heaven shined even brighter when she made her way into her eternal Home.
