Our beloved daughter and sister, Charleen Marie Rubiales, passed away peacefully in her home on October 25, 2019.  Charleen was born to Barbara and Anthony Rubiales on August 15, 1952.  She attended Montalvo Elementary, Anacapa Middle and graduated from Buena High in 1970.  After attending Ventura College, she was employed by the City of Ventura until she was stricken with a devastating life-long illness.  She was very generous and kind-hearted. She loved the beach, sewing, shopping, traveling, reading, holidays, ceramics, children and spending time with her family and friends.

She is predeceased by her maternal grandparents, Emily Eastwood and Joseph Valentine and her paternal grandparents Eva Escalante and Anthony Rubiales Sr.  She is survived by her parents, Anthony and Barbara Rubiales of Poway CA, sister Linda Johnson and spouse of Ventura CA, niece and nephews; Seanette Holler and Erik, Bobby and Steven Johnson; Sister Jeanette Bell and her spouse Joe, niece and nephew Dionna and David Bell of Rancho San Diego, CA.  Charleen is also survived by her dearest friend David B Marcus of Rancho Penasquuitos, CA.  The family will be forever grateful to David for his friendship and loving expertise and care.
