Anita Lopez

Anita G. Lopez Resident of Nambe To our devoted mom, who journeyed to heaven to be with her mother and Mary, Mother of Jesus. Amongst her many devotions she was a member of Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe del Valle de Pojoaque, Catholic Daughters, Life in the Spirit Seminars and prayer groups. She worked in the medical field as a radiologist technician and was actively involved in the community. Loved dancing and photography. She had a special relationship with “El Maestro” Luisito Lujan who taught her the art of straw applique. Her passion for life came from the Spiritual Love she had for family, friends and all people, most of all for her children, grandchildren.
