Mrs. Ploneda was born January 25, 1933 in Colima, Mexico, the daughter of Jesus Cardenas and Silvia Barragan.
As a young adult, she was one of the first telephone operators in Colima when phones were first being established in the city.
Mrs. Ploneda married Francisco Ploneda on February 14, 1952 in Colima in San Francisco Cathedral.
Mrs. Ploneda enjoyed her time as an Avon representative in which she was greatly successful since she had such a cheerful spirit she always had many clients. She also served as a volunteer for Paradise Valley Hospital and St. Jude's Senior Center beauty Salon.
Mrs. Ploneda was active in the senior community participating in speed walking marathons and performing in a senior instrumental band. You would be guaranteed a soulful laugh from her if she is watching her favorite show "I Love Lucy." When her grandchildren visited she enjoyed sharing her favorite treats which were See's Candies. Mrs. Ploneda had a wonderful, welcoming personality with a warm heart and her smile would light up the room. Her spirituality and prayer brought her tranquility and confidence to overcome any of life's hurdles.
She gave us life and helped shape our personalities and can be credited for many accomplishments.
We are all fortunate to have been able to call her Mom (and Grandma).
Survivors include her four sons Francisco, Oscar, Jesus, and Moises and her three daughters Elvira Huezo, Silvana Perilla, and Carmen Hunter. She had nineteen grandchildren; twenty-eight great grandchildren, and five great-great grandchildren.
