Margaret Ramirez Miranda

Margaret Ramirez Miranda, our loving mother, grandmother and sister completed her earthly journey on the evening of September 5, 2022 surrounded by her family. She was born June 9, 1930 in Georgetown, Texas to Pedro and Amelia Ramirez.

Margaret met the love of her life, John B. Miranda and they married July 3, 1945. Together they welcomed and raised 10 children. She worked hard alongside her husband at the Braun Dairy for many years and spent 30+ years caring for many residents as a certified nurses’ assistant; eighteen of those years were alongside her daughter, Susie. After retirement most of her time and energy was spent caring for her family.

Her love of pearls, matched with her love of flowers filled her days with joy. You could find her giggling at her favorite TV show, The Golden Girls. She loved embroidering, especially the praying hands that she stitched on sets of pillowcases for each of her children. At 92 years young, she lived, she loved, she laughed and she labored with grace and dignity.

Margaret was preceded in death by her parents; her husband of 50 years, John; daughters, Juanita Carter and Margaret Zotz; grandsons, Joe Ray Cisneros, Colt Miranda and Jonathan Patterson; and great granddaughter, Charlotte Patterson, son-in-laws, Rufus Cisneros, Jim Sorenson and Otis Carter and daughter-in-law, Beatrice Miranda.
