Victoria Grace Espinoza

She moved to Torrance, California in 1952 and attended Torrance High School.

She was a mother to six: Fernando Gallego, Martha Barba Gallego (preceded in death), Richard Espinoza, Victor Espinoza (preceded in death), Anthony Espinoza, and Ramon Molina.  She had 12 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren, with one on the way, Jayden Espinoza Sanchez.

She had this aura about her, this beautiful genuine soul, that drew people to her.  She made friends everywhere she went. Everyone wanted to be around her.  During a visit, she would cook one of her many delicious meals and serve it with love.  After a visit with her, you left feeling happy and loved.

Her door was always open for anyone in need.  She helped everyone and was Nana to many grandchildren, great-nieces, and nephews and they all loved her so much.  She made time to listen to everyone's problems, gave the best advice, and never judged anyone.  She loved everyone with her whole heart and was the rock of our family.  She truly was One of a Kind.  Her grace and strength throughout her life should serve as an example of how we should all strive to be.  We will miss her dearly and will always remember her favorite quote. "Well, Shiit" until we meet again we will hold you in our hearts forever.

She passed away peacefully with her loved ones by her side on December 14, 2022, at the age of 85 years young...just 4 days shy of her 86th birthday.
