Margarito was a great husband, father and grandfather who was always there for his family when they needed something. He was extremely dependable and would do anything it took to lend a hand when someone he loved was in need. You could always count on Margarito to tell you like it was, he always spoke the truth, whether you liked it or not. Margarito had an extremely outgoing and fun personality that drew people to him. He made many friends throughout his life. His hippie ways contributed to good times. There were many unforgettable party moments with him that will be talked about for years to come.

After coming back from the Army he began working at Lyon Metal from which he retired after 40 years.
