Rose Salas

Rose Salas died July 6, 2004, at her daughter and son-in-law's home in Davis
after a courageous fight with lung cancer, surrounded by family and loved ones.
She was 82 years old.

She was born to the late Augustina and Reyes Garcia on Feb. 5, 1922, in
Leesburg, N.M.

She was a longtime resident of Yolo County, living in Davis 1940 to 1970 and
moving to Woodland until the last month when she moved to Davis with her
daughter. Most of her married life she spent at home, taking care of her
children. Later on, she became a bookkeeper for her husband's business before
his death. She then went to work for Woodland Memorial Hospital until her
retirement.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Marshall Salas; children, Ramon, Mary
Ellen and Cecilia Salas; and two grandsons, Michael and Vincent Salas.

She is survived by her daughters, Ramona Lowry and her husband Dale of Davis,
Ernestine Salinas and her husband Hector, and Alberta Villanueva, all of
Sacramento; and sons David Salas and his wife Lucia of Yolo and Marshall Salas
and his wife Cecile of Pennsylvania. She is also survived by 29 grandchildren,
33 great-grandchildren, three great-great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and
nephews.

Friends are invited to attend the vigil service to begin at 6 p.m. Thursday at
McNary's Chapel, 458 College St. in Woodland. A funeral Mass will be said at 10
a.m. Friday at Holy Rosary Church, 301 Walnut St. in Woodland. Burial will
follow at Monument Hill Memorial Park.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions go to Yolo Hospice or
to the American Cancer Society.
