She was a very joyful and smart person who loved music, dancing and laughter. She was always either listening or singing to her Mariache music. A loving and nourishing mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.
Orfelina is survived by her children Alma West (husband Mark), Delfa Salgado (husband Jaime), and Jose Laurel (wife Nellyn). Five grandchildren Andre Furtado (wife Sarah), Jose Laurel Jr (wife Martha)
Monica Rodriguez (husband Roland), Alex Laurel, Michael Salgado, and seven great-grandchildren.
