Margarita Franco's Obituary
Margarita Franco. Mother, Grandmother, Best friend, and Matriarch to the Franco family. A leader in her household and a Follower of Christ Almighty. She left us to be alongside the Lord at the age of 81, so that we may follow in the steps of her legacy. From Tlajomulco de Zúñiga a pueblo in Guadalajara, Mexico. She was all about the Heavenly Father’s business, that she brought many to Christ. She was a four star general in the army of The Lord and no matter what she ensured that her loved ones were always fed. She was like the woman described in Proverbs 31: 10-31. 10 Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is more precious than rubies. 11 Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life.12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. 13 She finds wool and flax and busily spins it. 14 She is like a merchant’s ship, bringing her food from afar.15 She gets up before dawn to prepare breakfast for her household and plan the day’s work for her servant girls.16 She goes to inspect a field and buys it; with her earnings she plants a vineyard.17 She is energetic and strong, a hard worker.18 She makes sure her dealings are profitable; her lamp burns late into the night.19 Her hands are busy spinning thread, her fingers twisting fiber. 20 She extends a helping hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy. 21 She has no fear of winter for her household, for everyone has warm[b] clothes. 22 She makes her own bedspreads. She dresses in fine linen and purple gowns.23 Her husband is well known at the city gates, where he sits with the other civic leaders.24 She makes belted linen garments and sashes to sell to the merchants. 25 She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future. 26 When she speaks, her words are wise, and she gives instructions with kindness. 27 She carefully watches everything in her household and suffers nothing from laziness. 28 Her children stand and bless her. Her husband praises her: 29 “There are many virtuous and capable women in the world, but you surpass them all!” 30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised. We love her very much and thank God for the time that He granted us to spend with her.
