My condolences go out to the Contreras family during this difficult time. I know there are no words that could make you feel better or ease your pain, during my loss with my father what helped me be strong and go thru my difficult times was to remember our great memories, love that he gave us.

Words can not express the sorrow I have felt, since your passing Tesha. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so greatful that I was able to spend a few minutes with you, just last month. You shared how you gave so generously to others and looked out for those people who are less fortunate. That converstaion between you and I touched my heart, and I will never forget the impact that you left on my spirit that day. I will pray for your family and ask God to give them the strength to get through this difficult time. You will be greatly missed my friend. I was truely blessed to have known you. I will always have a special place for you, and Savannah, in my heart. With all my love,
Monica Lozano and Family
