Josie C. Peralta
February 19, 1941 - April 13, 2022
1941-2021 Josie Peralta, age 81, a resident of Belen, NM, was the daughter of Elias and Felipa Chavira. She was a devoted sister to many loving brothers and sisters. Josie loved all her nieces, nephews and cousins. She was a proud mother to her children, Leroy, Michael and Carol, who blessed her with five grandchildren, who made her a great grandma. Josie loved unconditionally, would help anyone and was kind to strangers. She loved adding color to her garden every summer. Josie painted and repainted her Santos and her wishing well. Her happy art reflected her happy heart. Josie’s love of the earth made her a recycler. She was the recycle queen of our familia. Never did a plastic bottle escape her. Josie was strong, honest, and joyful. She adored her family and loved her friends and neighbors. Josie’s faith was an example to all. Knowing her was a blessing, Josie’s laughter was fun. She will be dearly missed and was loved. “I’ll hold you in my heart until I hold you in heaven.” A visitation will be held at Our Lady of Belen Catholic Church on Tuesday, April 26, 2022 at 9:00 a.m. with a Rosary to be recited at 9:30 a.m. A funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m., with an interment following at Our Lady of Belen Memorial Gardens.
