In Loving Memory of Sandra Ann “Gina” Gonzales January 21, 1964 – October 14, 2025 Age 61 With hearts full of love and gratitude for her life, we celebrate the beautiful spirit of Sandra Ann Gonzales, affectionately known as Gina to her family and friends. Born on January 21, 1964, Gina filled every moment with laughter, music, and kindness that touched everyone around her. Gina had a heart that never knew limits. She was the one you could always count on and ready to help anyone in need, whether it was through a heartfelt conversation, a community fundraiser, or a simple act of generosity. She gave selflessly and joyfully, always bringing people closer to each other and closer to God. Her greatest joy in life was her family, especially her beloved grandchildren, Jonathan Jr. and Dakota Granato. To Gina, family meant everything—Sunday gatherings, laughter around the table, and creating memories that would last generations. She cherished every hug, every song, every shared story. Gina is survived by her devoted daughter Crystal Rose Granato and son-in-law Jonathan Granato, her grandchildren Jonathan Granato Jr. and Dakota Granato, her loving sister Aurelia (Orey) Russell and brother-in-law Robert Russell, her nephew Robert Russell Jr., and niece Ariana Del Toro with husband Christian Del Toro, along with many aunts, uncles, cousins, and dear friends who will forever hold her in their hearts. She is preceded in death by her beloved son Matthew Gonzales, her parents Blanca Rosa Hall Coronado and Francisco E. Coronado, and her brothers Jesus Francisco (Jesse Frank) and Frank L. (Panchio) Coronado. To know Gina was to know laughter, love, and light. Her voice, whether in song or in prayer will continue to echo in the hearts of all who loved her. Though she has gone home to Heaven, her spirit lives on in the kindness we show, the songs we sing, and the love we share with one another. She never said no. She always showed up. And she made the world brighter—just by being in it. A Celebration of Life for Gina Family and friends are invited to come together to honor Gina’s beautiful life, share memories, and celebrate the love she gave so freely.
