Proper salutation??

I would say for example:

Dear Mrs. Alberta Ramona-Hernandez or something like that....

is that what you mean??

Or..."Hello Mrs. Ramona-Hernandez."

Yes. Hyphenated last names, no matter how long, are treated as a single item and the whole string should be used when formally addressing the person.
