"Grandma" as Wilma was know to many families in Omar's class, was a joy to be around and we were lucky enough to see her at many school gatherings and enjoy her company. She was a kind and giving person and will be missed by many, many people. All our best wishes for the Ortiz family.

Dani, Lefty and Family,
You have been blessed with many memories and special times with your Mom. She cherished all her time spent with you and the kids at home (and home is where the heart is).

I'll always remember her visiting me at the drug store on Belmont after she went to go play Bingo. I could always tell if she won or not by her expression when she walked in.

She's resting now and at peace. She is smiling down on you all from heaven. I will miss that warm smile.

We love you, Wilma!

One memory that first comes to mind is that Dear Sweet Wilma twice my age, could walk faster than me. I loved her like my own mother. Rest in peace.
