Anita Louise Espinoza

Anita Louise Espinoza, born on May 5, 1946, in Yakima, Washington, left this world on December 6, 2024, in Serafina, New Mexico, leaving behind a legacy of love, kindness, and cherished memories. Anita was a devoted wife to her late husband, Raymond Alfredo Espinoza, with whom she shared a beautiful life filled with laughter and dedication.

In raising their two daughters in Albuquerque, Anita instilled values of faith, compassion, and creativity in her family. A God-fearing Christian, she immersed herself in her Bible, drawing strength and inspiration from her beliefs. Her spiritual foundation was evident in the warmth she exuded to everyone around her.

Anita's hands were always busy, whether it was sewing, crocheting, or engaging in various crafts that showcased her artistic flair. Her creativity knew no bounds, and she poured her heart into each project, often finding joy in sharing these moments of creation with her loved ones. Family gatherings were often filled with reminiscing, laughter, and the sounds of her gentle spirit, which will forever resonate in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know her.

She is lovingly remembered by her two daughters, Heather Conway and Rose Marie Hartel, five grandchildren, fifteen great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandchild, who all carry pieces of her in their hearts and lives. While her passing leaves an irreplaceable void, the love she shared and the wisdom she imparted will continue to guide and inspire her family for generations to come.

Anita Louise Espinoza’s laughter, love, and kindness will be deeply missed; however, her spirit will forever remain a radiant light in the lives of those she so lovingly touched.

Anita is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Raymond Alfredo Espinoza, and two treasured grandchildren, Emilio Elvires Conway and Joseph Patrick Montoya Jr.
