Maria Guerrero - August 08, 1926 - April 17, 2015

Departed: 04/17/2015 (Yonkers)

Obituary Preview: Maria C. Guerrero nacio en Choloma, Honduras el 26 de agosto de 1926, y comenzó su trayecto por la vida. Ella era la hija de Santos Aguilar y Paula Mejía, y la hija del medio de tres hermanos (Girberto Mejía y Edith Mejía). Dona Tina fue la esposa de Hipólito Guerrero durante 20 años. Tuvo 10 hijos, 5 varones y 5 hembras (Julio Cesar, Hilda Gladys, Carlos Guerrero, Miriam Guerrero, Nelly Guerrero, Amanda Guerrero, Wilfredo Guerrero, Aida Guerrero, Roger Guerrero, y Noel Guerrero). Su experiencia en los Estados Unidos comenzó en 1960, cuando Hipólito llegó a la ciudad de Nueva York con el hijo mayor, César y más tarde Carlos (16) en 1968. En 1970, a la edad de 43 años, María llegó a la ciudad de Nueva York para vivir en la calle 136 entre Amsterdam y Broadway. Es en este momento que ella llegó con 3 de sus hijos, Miriam (16), Wilfredo (11), y Noel (5). Seis meses más tarde, regresó a Honduras y trajo a sus otros hijos, Amanda (13), Nelly (15), Roger (8), Aida (10) y, por último, Hilda (22) en 1972. Dona Tina era una mujer con un gran carácter……..era cariñosa, humanitaria, comprensiva, compasiva, generosa, con mucha integridad que exigía el respeto de los demás. Su vida estuvo marcada por la humildad, la generosidad, el perdón y el amor por la humanidad. Tenía una tremenda fe poniendo su confianza en Dios. Ella no era sólamente una madre de sus propios hijos, pero también ella era una maestra, consejera, mentor, y uno de sus mayores atributos que alguien podría tener es que Dona Tina era una cocinera fenomenal!!! ......por ejemplo....BALEADAS, arroz con pollo, SOPA DE CARACOL, SOPA DE RES Y en las navidades TAMALES. A lo largo de su vida, su mayor motivación fue ayudar a los necesitados mientras sacrificaba sus propia familia. Con frecuencia inculcó en sus hijos la importancia de ayudar a los demás sin ningún interés alguno. Ella alimentaba y acobijaba a las personas en necesidad mientras vivía en los EE.UU. y nunca se olvido de la responsabilidad de su familia y amigos en Honduras con lo poco que tenía. A su llegada a Nueva York, Dona Tina comenzó a trabajar como ama de llaves durante unos años dejando a sus hijos bajo el cuido de su hija mayor, Miriam. Esto fue un enorme sacrificio que Dona Tina hizo con el fin de proveer las necesidades básicas de su familia. Su vida se volvió más difícil después de ser madre soltera en 1973 y en ese momento se vio obligada a criar a sus hijos con el apoyo de los servicios de asistencia pública. Con lo poco que tenía, ella fue capaz de sostener asu familia y siempre se las arreglaba para extender su generosidad a los necesitados. En 1974 nació su primer nieto. Es en este momento que ella comenzó a cuidar a sus nietos. Como abuela, tuvo mas de 40 nietos / bisnietos y era conocida por ser cariñosa y atenta, consolante, siempre aconsejando, e inculcaba disciplina a los niños con mucho amor. Los hijos y nietos de Dona Tina indicaron que las lecciones más importantes que aprendieron de ella eran mantener los valores familiares, la unidad, el amor y el respeto. Ella fue una persona que siempre les enseno a los hijos que nunca juzguen a los demás y que traten a todos los seres humanos iguales a pesar de su origen étnico, color, raza, religión, situación económica, etc. Dona Tina murió pacíficamente el 17 de abril de 2015 en el Hospital de Saint Joseph, después de haber sufrido una larga batalla con complicaciones del corazón y cerebral en los últimos 11 años. Sus últimos años fueron inmensamente llenos de amor y unidad familiar. Sus hijos se acuerdan que para ella el regalo más grande que le daba gran felicidad y satisfacción fue ver a su familia unida en paz y armonía con todo el amor que ella le enseñó.
