Hernandez and Martinez family,
Sorry for your lost. She was a very loved person. Everyone who meet her always had something nice to say. I remember when I first meet her it was for her husbands funeral and she was so strong. I am going to miss her very much as well. She was very special to me and I loved her dearly. But I will not think of her dead. I will think of her in a sleep until we meet again. Love you Guilla.
