Maria H. Gonzalez passed away October 6, 2021 at Tuality Community Hospital in Hillsboro, Oregon. Born to a single mother Margarita Hernandez–Velasquez. Maria's fondest memories were of the simple but fun childhood she and her two brothers Martin and Carlos shared. After Immigrating to the United States. She would strive to give the same love and devotion to her own children. Living most of her life in California, before settling peacefully in Washington.
A single mother herself, Maria worked multiple jobs in Textiles before working mostly in the Warehouse Industry
Maria's real legacy is one of great character. Always a strong willed and devoted person. Maria's work ethic and determination was matched by few. Yet, the greatest and most timeless gift she gave the world was her friendship. Maria was always fun to be around. Playing pranks on people seemingly never got old. Her jokes just never seemed dull. Her face will always be best remembered laughing or smiling.
A beloved mother and sister. She is survived by her three children: Emmanuel, Julian, and Estefani; and her eldest brother Martin. Maria would also include her 5 dogs and her 1 cat. Her family is immensely saddened to announce her sudden passing. Funeral services for all friends and family will be held October 25th 2021, and October 26th, 2021 in Kennewick, WA.
