Megan's beloved nieces and nephews are Melanie and Chris De Luca, Carly Jones, Tony Jones, Sarah Barrett, Ethan Barrett and her great-niece Mariah Rodriguez. A 1981 graduate of Del Norte High School and TVI, Megan never met a stranger. She greeted everyone the same - with her dimpled smile. In 1991, Megan started her career at Furr's Supermarkets' corporate office, where she worked for ten years. Whilst there she worked in several finance departments and made many life-long friends. She lived briefly in California in 2001, but her love for New Mexico, for her family and her friends brought her back to her roots in 2002. Megan started work at The Gap headquarters in 2002 and was there until her untimely retirement, due to ill health. Following her wishes, cremation has already taken place. There will be a Memorial Service for Megan at 10:00am on Saturday, July 13th at St. John's United Methodist Church, 2626 Arizona NE, Albuquerque. In lieu of flowers, we know Megan would prefer donations to The Animal Humane Association of New Mexico, 12401 Olympia St. NW, Alb., NM 87114 or Sacramento Summer Camp, c/o St. John's UMC, 2626 Arizona NE, Alb., NM 87110.

KING, ELIZABETH a native New Mexican, born Nov 10, 1942 passed away Sunday June 30, 2013 after a two year battle with lung cancer. Elizabeth was preceded in death by her parents, Donaciano Lovato Sr. and Fabiola Francis Lovato and her brother, Jose (Joe) Alfredo Lovato. She is survived by her three brothers, Don Lovato Jr., Peter Lovato, and Joseph Anthony Lovato; and four daughters, Theresa Blea, Mary Flores, Tammy Sherfy and La Vonda King. Lisa, as she was known, loved the outdoors, loved her family and was extraordinarily generous. As the primary caregiver for both her parents, she made the last few years of their lives, safe, happy and dignified. Fortunately for all of us, she also had time to support others, including sixteen grandchildren and twenty-two great-grandchildren - her life revolved around her family! And when she did find time for herself, she definitely made up for it - you could say she was a highly caffeinated social butterfly with extra large wings. Always ready to strike up a conversation with a complete stranger or help someone in need, she was a steady voice with a steady hand and a beautiful smile. She will be greatly missed! A Rosary will be recited on Friday, July 12 at 9:30 a.m. with a Memorial Mass to follow at 10:00 a.m. at the Queen of Heaven Catholic Church in Albuquerque. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to any charitable cancer research organization of your choice.

KLINE, WILLIAM J. William J. Kline, also known as Bill by his friends and Geed by his son's friends, was born September 24, 1922 in Hillsdale, Michigan to Rhea (Bly) Kline and Ora Kline. Bill, the youngest of four, joined his brother Dick and sisters Ruth Ross and Martha Chase in the hereafter on June 30, 2013. Dad is survived by his loving children: Sandy Bera (Steve) of Michigan, Carol Kline (Ric) of Albuquerque, Lou Kline (Angie) of Michigan, Lee Kline (Carrie) of Virginia and Kevin Kline of Michigan; as well as 11 grandchildren; 7 1/2 great-grandchildren; six nieces and nephews; four granddogs and many friends. With great genes in his family, he lived to the ripe age of 90, with a birthday celebration he was able to spend with many family and friends. Dad, a Veteran of the Coast Guard during World War II, was a man with a great sense of humor (never forgot a joke!) and of hidden talents most people didn't know about! He enjoyed writing limericks-usually on the humorous side, adding wonderful little drawings to the limerick. What a great publication of his limericks and drawings we could have had! Dad retired from Warren Fastener, a division of Black and Decker in Michigan, before moving to Albuquerque from Michigan in 1994, where he joined daughter Carol in the Land of Enchantment! Soon, he became a Volunteer at the Natural History Museum and became very involved in Civitan, an international community service organization. He joined the Rio Grande Civitan Club, then later, the Route 66 Civitan Club. He was Civitan of the Year in Rio Grande and received the prestigious Club Honor Key, as well. Dad was, also, a Member of the President's Council, in support of the Civitan International Research Center. He always looked forward to Civitan functions and traveling to Civitan District meetings, where he would see his many friends. Dad was a kind, generous man and one of the best natured people we've ever known, never saying a bad word about anyone. (Well, there is one great story!!) We hope we inherited his sense of humor and his memory. We have a void in our hearts; but remembering his quick sense of humor puts a smile on our faces. If you wish to make donations in his name, you may send them to UAB Civitan International Research Center, CIRC 329, 1530 3rd Ave. South, Birmingham, AL 35294.
