It is with great sadness, we announce the passing of our beloved
friend and longtime Governor, Maria Teresa Bravo, who died
peacefully in her home on Saturday, August 22, 2020.
Maria Teresa will be remembered for being thoughtful and humorous;
her smile and energy would always light up the room. Her heart was
kind and compassionate, and we’ll miss that playful sparkle in her eyes.
Maria Teresa had been a member of BHCCLSA for over twenty years and
served as Corresponding Secretary (6 years), Executive Secretary (10+ years),
Public Relations Officer (6 years), and Governor (9+ years). Maria Teresa,
after working as a legal secretary for ten years, obtained a paralegal
certificate from UCLA in 2002 and a Bachelor Degree in Paralegal Studies
in 2008 from National University. She was awarded a Translator/Interpreter
(English/Spanish-Spanish/English) certificate in 2004 from UCLA and
a Parliamentarian certificate in 2010.
Maria Teresa was employed as a paralegal by the law offices
of Neil C. Newson & Associates, in Beverly Hills, where she
had worked for the past thirty years.
Maria Teresa will live on in our memories forever.
A mass and tribute to celebrate the life of Maria Teresa Bravo
