Chevita en mi corazón

2018- 2024


In the cemetery in Ocampo, Guanajuato

In a home in Pilsen, Chicago

In her home in Ocampo, Guanajuato

In the backyard of her firstborn, surrounded by his children and grandchildren in a suburb of Chicago

In her home in Ocampo, Guanajuato

In her granddaughter's backyard

With her second born, celebrating Chevitas' birthday in her granddaughter's backyard with her daughters, nieces, and grandchildren
