Mrs. Sandoval was born Aug. 24, 1926, at Kennedy, Texas, a
daughter of Matilde and Sara Morin Ortiz. She grew up
and attended school in Texas. She married Heriberto
Sandoval March 12, 1952, in Texas, and a few years later moved
to Nampa. Nothing pleased our mother
more than having all her children get together at her house to
enjoy her delightful cooking on Sundays. She was totally
disappointed if someone did not show up or did not eat.
Her favorite pastime, up to her last days, was to call all her
sons and daughters daily to see how they were doing and to
check on her grandchildren, whom she loved so dearly.
Making sure our father was happy and well cared for was one of
her primary loves. Survivors include her
husband, Heriberto Sandoval Sr., two sons and one
daughter-in-law, Noe and Janet Rodriguez, Heriberto Sandoval
Jr., all of Nampa; eight daughters and five sons-in-law, Pedro
and Elizabeth Rodriguez of Tempe, Ariz., Alicia Morales of
Dallas, Texas, Manuel and Yolanda Cedillo, Guadalupe and
Ida Reyna, Conrad and Ersilia De La Paz, Andres and Delia
Trejo, Mary Helen Sandoval and Norma Jean Michaelis-Cortez,
all of Nampa; one brother, Domingo Ortiz of San Antonio,
Texas; two sisters, Paula Ortega of San Antonio and Delia
Balderama of Richmond, Texas; eighteen grandchildren; two
great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents and one brother,
Robert Ortiz. Memorials may be made to
the Dialysis Unit of Mercy Medical Center, 1512 12th Avenue
Road, Nampa, 83666, or flowers may be sent.
Friends may call until 9 p.m. today and on Tuesday from 9 am.
until 1 p.m. at Persons-Flahiff Funeral Chapel, Nampa. |
