Margarita Stokes Obituary
We are sad to announce that on April 3, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Margarita Stokes of Las Cruces, New Mexico. Family and friends can send flowers and/or light a candle as a loving gesture for their loved one. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Margarita Stokes to show support.
As we bid Margarita farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Margarita is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was predeceased by: her father Arturo Chavez. She is survived by: her mother Angelita Chavez; her children, Jay Stokes and Amy Gabaldon (Mark); her grandsons, Corbin Stokes and Ari Hernandez; her siblings, Raymond Chavez (Melinda), Thomas Chavez (Bertha), Erlinda Garcia, Arthur Chavez, Jr. and Stella Otero; and her niece Sophie Molina. She is also survived by nieces and nephews.
