She began working seasonally in the fields of Santa Rosa and canneries of San Diego. As her family grew, she quickly settled in San Ysidro, and by then, there were 13 kids. As the need kept increasing, her husband thought they should start a business, and officially launched the Tortilleria San Ysidro.
Doña Lola loved to cook, especially for her kids, and this operations quickly transformed into a quick-serve Mexican Food restaurant. Within a few short years, Roberto's Taco Shop was born, and then rest is history.
Doña Lola moved to Encinitas, where she enjoyed more than 30 years with her children and many grandkids. An avid baseball fan, you could catch Doña Lola enjoying visits to Petco Park to watch her team, the San Diego Padres. She also enjoyed and devoted much time to her blooming, lush garden. Eventually, she made her way to Escondido's southern area, where she enjoyed her golden years with her kids, grandkids and great-grandkids.
She is survived by ten sons and daughters, thirty-nine grandkids, fifty great-grandkids and five great-great grandkids.
