Ilda Valle Villagomez, longtime Hood River community member, went home to Jesus on Oct. 21, 2021. Ilda was born in Las Cruces, Michoacán, Mexico, on Oct. 4, 1959.

After working as a nurse in Michoacán for several years in the early ‘80s, she came to Hood River, Ore., in 1985 to join her father and brothers as a migrant agricultural worker. That summer, while working among the orchard trees, she fell in love with Amador Valle and they married later that year.
