Agnes Salazar Trujillo, age 92, left this world on Angels' Wings on Mothers' Day, May 8, 2011 in Santa Fé, NM. Agnes was surrounded by her beloved family and precious caregivers.
Agnes was born in Española, NM on January 1, 1919. Her professional career began there serving as City Clerk in the 1950s. Later she worked at the State Highway Department until her retirement in 1983.
Agnes belonged to The Catholic Daughters of America, Las Amigas del Valle, La Sociedad Folklorica and other social, religious and civic organizations.
Agnes was always the life of the party with her sense of humor and delightful personality. Agnes was full of charm and had a sparkle even into the last days of her life. Agnes was a fastidiously magical cook. Her greatest joy was to teach the art of making delicious tamales, biscochitos, empanaditas and pastelitos while telling her chistes y cuentos.
