Mom was a devoted Christian who loved her Lord and showed her Christian values to her beloved children. We are left with the memories of a wonderful mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, great- grandmother, friend, and above all a superb cook. We shall cherish all the memories and moments we shared with her. Mom, it is not goodbye but rather, until we meet again. May you rest in peace in the company of all the Angels and Saints.-

She left this earth to join her loving spouse in heaven:-Mr. George Benavides Jr.; sons, George Benavides III, Armando Benavides; parents: Santos and Guadalupe Morales; brothers, Raymundo Morales, Gilberto Morales, and Jose Candelario Morales.
