Margalida, was a full time school teacher and working mother in Lima, Peru prior to coming to the United States. She helped put her former husband Dr. Agustin Arbulu through the university and medical school. The family eventually relocated to the Detroit area as she became a stay at home Mom raising her three children in Michigan. Once her children were in college she returned to obtain her teaching certification from the Wayne State University and worked part-time teaching Spanish to elementary children in Detroit for a number of years before retiring. For the next 15 years, she served as avid volunteer for multiple charities, took up golfing, enjoyed working as a seamstress to her grandchildren, became master gardener and continued to mentor a number of friends from Peru who lived in Michigan. She became a naturalized U.S. citizen later in life. During all her years in the U.S., she assisted her children, grandchildren as well as her brothers and sisters living in Peru. We love you and you will forever be in our hearts.
