Alicia Marie “Tee-Tee” Foster Trejo

January 5, 1980-August 31, 2009

Daughter of Augie Trejo and Joanne Sanchez lost her battle with cancer on August 31, 2009. Tee-tee is a fourth generation Santa Barbaran, and Chumash Native American sister. She attended Washington Elementary, La Cumbre Junior High, and Santa Barbara High School.

She leaves behind her deeply saddened children. Ashley, 12 who says, “She is the best loving mother ever.” Mikey, 10, “She is special, I love her more than my video games and love sharing my dog Bear with her.” Desi. 8, “I love my mom with all my heart and will miss her.” I will see you over the rainbow. May God bless my mommy with her special wink.” Novena, 18 months would say, “What’s up with that?” and blow her kisses.

Tee-Tee will always be remembered as someone with a big loving heart that our family will never forget. She will always be with us, our little angel.

Tee-Tee loved the Chumash Casino. She would tell her mom she would be right back but we knew she was headed to the Casino with her sister Michelle.

But most of all she loved being with her family.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents Richard (Bear) Foster, Joe (Super) Trejo. Lil Mendoza, Hank Acuna, Susana Almanza.

She is survived by her mother Joanne Sanchez (Rick) and father Augie Trejo. Brothers: Ruben (Bubba) Foster, Anthony Trejo. Sisters: Michelle and Regina Sanchez. Grandmothers: Sylvia (Gigi) Acuna, Pat O’Brien. Grandpas: Hank Mendoza, Agustin Almanza. And her many loving aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and large extended family.
