Like many of us, she migrated to the US circa 1982. Focused and determined, she worked hard to achieve the American dream. She was a hard working woman whom was also loving and kind.

She loved to love on people and found pleasure in cooking for her entire family on Sunday nights. She was the greatest mother to her dog Shayla, whom she inherited when her mom passed away several years ago. Mercedes had a love for fashion and romantic Spanish music.

Floral print dresses and bright colors were her favorite dressing pieces. She was a tiny woman but a powerhouse in strength. She was very committed in her professional life.
