Aida was the beloved and life long friend of our mother, Jo, and all our family. She was such an elegant woman...graceful and kind. She made a deep impression upon me as a young girl. Her lovely way of speaking English and Spanish, the way she carried herself, her sensibilities, made me want to be like that "when I grew up". And I became a Spanish teacher in large measure, because of her. I will forever be grateful for the companionship she offered my mother as they both raised large families and shared so much in common. May her family be blessed as they carry on such a wonderful legacy. We were all just so fortunate to have known her. May she rest in peace.

Aida was a dear friend of my mother, Jo Noonan. She was a kind and gracious woman who inspired me to be the nurse I am today. My love and sympathy to Mary Jo and all of the Ryan family.

Aida was truly a beautiful woman inside and out. I enjoyed many years of working with her at ECHD's Maternal and Infant Care Program. She was a dedicated nurse. Rest in peace Aida.
