Ninfa was known to be loving and supportive, but most of all, funny and a jokester! She loved to spend time with family and her favorite hobby was going to the casino. Ninfa loved to be called "Abuelita" by her grand-daughter who ended up being the best of best friends!
Ninfa will be missed and forever in our hearts.
