Annabell F. Gonzales, 56, a resident of Chimayo, passed away on Thursday, September 3, 2015 from a lengthy illness. She was preceded in death by her mother, Adelia Trujillo; son, Leon Gonzales; brothers, Michael Trujillo and Gaylord Trujillo; nephews, Michael Trujillo Jr. and Kenny Martinez; ex-mother-in-law who was like a 2nd mom to her, Eudalia “Lala” Gonzales. Annabell “Bell” Gonzales was a caring mother who showed unconditional love for her children. She touched so many lives and left an imprint on everyone she came in contact with. A “jokester” many would call her; as she could put a smile on anyone’s face no matter the situation. As the baby of her siblings she was always treated as their little princess. Bell was an angel to her family and friends and was taken far too soon. She’ll be leaving behind her best friend, her “brown-eyed girl”, her daughter.
Annabell is survived by her father, Ignacio Trujillo; son, Manuel Gonzales Jr; daughter, Nicole Gonzales; sisters, Margie Benevidez, Loretta Duran, Evelyn Baca and husband Orlando; brother, Jerry and Maria Trujillo; sister, Melissa Fuentes and husband Danny; uncle, Carlos Vigil and wife Rosina; her closest nephews and nieces, Jamie Duran, Cindy Burrell, Beetle Benevidez, Gene Burrell, and Juan Archuleta; her special babies that she adored her beloved dogs, Buddy and Bella; plus numerous other nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
