Maria M. Pinilla

Margarita, was married to Rev. Jose Waldo Pinilla and together raised their three children, Emabeth, Doraine, and Carlos. Her spiritual family is thriving in Colombian as well in the United States mainly Atlanta GA. Margarita was raised in the home of a construction contractor and after becoming a follower of Jesus Christ, dedicated her professional years to the field of nursing. Many parents and children owe their family starts to her selfless work.

Retired in the mid-1980s, Margarita never wavered from her trust in the teachings of Christ and became a mentor to many dear family and friends. Emabeth, her eldest daughter is married to Rodrigo Espinosa, and proud mother to Jose Rodrigo, Camilo and Alejandro, all testimony of love and dedication. Her second daughter, Doraine is the proud mother of Hernan Andres, Leonardo, Brandan and sweet Tatiana, all are blessings in her life. I am Carlos the middle child, blessed in life through her teachings and steadfast humility.

We will miss her dearly, God has now welcomed Maria Margarita Ortiz Pinilla in his loving presence.
