Antonita Vigil

Antonita Vigil was a lifelong resident of Ohkay Owingeh pueblo.  She lived life to the fullest.  She loved to laugh and tell jokes.  She loved shopping with her daughters and looking her very best was very important to her.   Visiting with friends, listening to music, crafts, dancing, word puzzles, decorating and cooking were her favorite pass times.  She cherished her children and her grandchildren but was never one to hold back if she had a point to make.  Everyone remembers her as being fun loving and funny.  Her smile could brighten the room and her laughter will never be forgotten.  May her fun loving nature echo through the heavens.  She will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
