OBITUARY
Margarita Alicia Solano
June 21, 1926 - June 20, 2024
On June 20, 2024, Margarita Alicia Solano ended her amazing life journey one day shy of her 98th birthday. Beyond the grief of her loss lies 98 years of incredible memories, life lessons, and endless love amongst her large family and her remaining legacy. Margarita leaves behind her children Connie Weiss (Jerry), Maria, Jose (Diana), and Ignacio (Lupe). Late and missed children Jamie and Tony. Her siblings, Rita and Beto. She passes on a tremendous legacy of several grandchildren, great-grandchildren, great-great-grandchildren, cousins, and friends. Margarita and her late husband Francisco, moved the family from California to Chicago in 1966. Margarita made it an art in how she cared and loved for her entire family and friends. Her tireless work ethic and love was bestowed upon each family member, as this was her gift to others. Her thoughtfulness and generosity were often on display. Her resiliency in her later years showed her warrior spirit; fighting through illness again and again and brushing off Covid like a common cold were examples of her strength. Her life lessons were direct, meaningful and on point - she guided so many with intelligence and courage. Today and in the future, we celebrate her life and thank her for her love, leadership, and lessons. The celebration services are as follows: Visitation on Monday from 2pm to 9pm at Midtown Funeral Home and Cremation Options 3918 W. Irving Park Road, Chicago. Funeral Tuesday, June 25,2024 beginning at 9:15am at Midtown Funeral Home proceeding to St. Viator/ St Wenceslaus Catholic Church for Mass at 10:00am. Interment Maryhill Cemetery, Niles.
