Angelita López Orozco
Organ Donor
/July 20, 2022
Angelita López Orozco was born on February 14th 1960 in a beautiful and humble town called El Rodeo, Michoacán in Mexico. She was raised a loving and caring soul. She was married in 1987 to an equally kind man named Jose Alfonso Ramirez Zárate. When she arrived in the United States in 1996, she continued to work closely with children and expecting mothers. She was a mother of three girls. Rosario Ramirez, Reyna Ramirez and Citlally Ramirez. She also mothered many babies who to this day are her children. Angelita had a heart of gold and a soul as pure as pure can be. This woman was not only my mother but my best friend and the person I could not live without. To this day I think of her and know that with her donation she was able to help so many families just like ours. I am sad that she is gone but she truly lives on the way she always knew she would helping others.
