I think of the "good ole times" when I think of tia...I remember her house always being spotless and her glass of coca cola. I also remember her telling us stories of the past which she made so interesting. I will miss you tia!!

Tia Rosa was the most caring, loving and beautiful woman. Her heart was so big, full of all the love she put out and her smile and laughter were just as big! The memories I have of Tia, are such wonderful ones, having spent many days and nights being at their house - just hanging out. Those memories will be with me forever. I love you Tia Rosa, and I will miss you so much, but I know that you are now with Wuelita and the rest of our family.

I remember the days when Tia Rosa and Tio Susano lived on Pontiac St. I remember loving going over there to visit with my folks and I would see Tia Rosa always ironing and doing something around the house. I also have wonderful memories of going to Houghton Lake with my folks and all my aunts and uncles including Tia Rosa and Tio Susano. I even remember the little cottage that my tio and tia stayed in, all the fishing we would do, playing cards at night...those were real good times and I will keep those memories in my heart. I love you Tia Rosa and I will miss you very much.
