She is survived by her four children, Maria Pedro, Maria Andres, Andres Pedro, Pedro Andres; and her 7 grandchildren: Jaime, Aurelia, Cristina, Lucas, Isaac, Benjamin, and Gabriel. Micaela was a faithful prayer warrior in the service of Jesus Christ and an example to follow. She would always encourage many young people to put their faith in God. She spent countless hours praying with her beloved prayer group called Los Guerreros de Oración. Anyone who knew her knew that she walked with God. She was blessed in so many ways. She would share the many stories about how she would find money while on her favorite walks near her home. Micaela was also passionate about gardening and loved spending many hours with her grandchildren. She was a very loving, generous, kind, bubbly-type of Chikay (grandmother in Akateko, Mayan dialect). Many whom were not her grandchildren called her Chikay. She was everyone’s Chikay. Micaela and her family fled Guatemala in 1983 due to Guatemala’s Civil War. She came to the United States to provide safety for her family. Micaela spent many years working as a crop picker in Plant City, Florida and spent the last 10 years of her working career at Tyson Foods.

Micaela fue una fiel guerrera de oración al servicio de Jesucristo y un ejemplo seguir. Ella siempre animaba a muchos jóvenes a poner su fe en Dios. Pasó incontables horas orando con su amado grupo de oración llamado Los Guerreros de Oración. Cualquiera que la conociera sabía que ella caminaba con Dios. Ella fue bendecida de muchas maneras. Nos contaba muchas historias sobre cómo encontraba dinero durante sus paseos favoritos cerca de su casa. A Micaela también le apasionaba la jardinería y le encantaba pasar muchas horas con sus nietos. Era una abuela muy cariñosa, generosa, amable y efervescente. Muchos de los que no eran sus nietos la llamaban Chikay (abuela en Akateko, dialecto Maya). Era la Chikay de todos. Micaela y su familia huyeron de Guatemala en 1983 debido a la Guerra Civil de Guatemala. Ella vino a los Estados Unidos para brindar seguridad a su familia. Micaela pasó muchos años trabajando como recolectora de cosechas en Plant City, Florida, y pasó los últimos 10 años de su carrera laboral en Tyson Foods.
