OBITUARIO DE ALEJANDRA GARAY - FEBRERO 27, 1932 – MARZO 10, 2023 El 10 de Marzo de 2023, Alejandra Garay falleció pacíficamente a los 91 años después de una larga enfermedad. Alejandra era madre biológica de siete hijos (uno de los cuales falleció a la edad de un año y medio). Sin embargo, muchas personas consideraban a Alejandra su madre sustituta. Cuando los hijos de Alejandra eran pequeños, la frase "ama de casa" existía. Era habitual que las mujeres se quedaran en casa con los niños mientras sus maridos trabajaban. Pero incluso para los estándares de la época, Alejandra fue una esposa y madre excepcional. Se preocupaba profundamente por su familia y vecinos. Ella hizo esto no por obligación, sino por quién era. Ella siempre fue la primera en ofrecer ayuda. Regularmente llevaba comidas a la casa de vecinos enfermos. Y siempre se aseguró de que cada niño que se cruzara en su camino estuviera seguro, saludable y feliz. A Alejandra le sobreviven sus hijas, Sandra O. Guerrero, Sara E. Garay, Judith Rodak; sus hijos: Mario A. Garay, Raúl V. Garay, Oscar R. Garay; 23 nietos, 25 bisnietos y 4 tataranietos. Alejandra fue precedida en la muerte por su esposo de 50 años Mario Alberto Garay (2003) y su hija Azalea Salinas (1952).
