My deepest condolences to the entire Macias family, you were all like an extended family to me and I will always remember your mom's loving and generous heart. I thank God for the privilege in having her in my life during those tough High School years (1978/79). She even let me call her "Mom" during that time. Her beautiful smile will forever be engraved in my heart. I Love You All,

Macias family, my deepest condolences to you all. It seems not too long ago we were all playing on 3rd street and I would always remember going to your house and eating your mom's delicious cakes with fruit filling.

God bless your family always,

Dora, my love to you and your family. Your Mom was blessed to have all of you to take of her and be there when she passed. I will always remember your Mom. She might have been 86 but with a heart and soul of a much younger woman.
