Maria was born in Mexico on August 20, 1935. A true homemaker, she loved to cook and hands down made the best pico de gallo and refried beans ever and delicious homemade tortillas and cookies. But make no mistake, anyone could get the wooden spoon! Maria liked staying busy. She travelled and loved the water and swimming.

Maria is survived by her son Norberto Midgett and wife, Andrea; daughters Johnnie Moore, Maria Midgett Webb, Alma Midgett, Barbara May and husband, Royce, Idella King and husband, Dale, and Marcella Clover and husband, Michael; and brother, Norberto Quintero.
