Herlinda Saldana Born July 27, 1935 in Zacatecas Mexico to Maria Chavez and Jose Torres. Left us November 9, 2013 to be with our Lord and Savior.

Our parents immigrated to the United States in 1955 and settled in Huntsville Texas in 1962. Both were employed with the Katoaka family at Huntsville Gardens for over 20 years. We were blessed with a good Christian Mother who wanted the best for her children. She raised her children to work hard and give 100 percent in all endeavors. When life would throw a curve, to ask God to lift you back up and leave it in His hands. Nothing in life is free and God has a purpose for each and every one of us. Our Mother has served her purpose and our Heavenly Father has taken her to rejoice in His Kingdom. Remember to have God first, family second and career third. We are thankful for the care she received at Park Manor in Conroe in her final weeks. To Dr. Lawrence Wells for his many years of care.
