To all who loved my mother,
She fought hard to stay with all of us just a little bit longer to make sure we would all be okay. She gave us her strength and endurance to keep going on before she went to meet her lord. She is finally dancing the jitterbug again, singing with all her country singers, and watching over all of us. If you feel a warmth and inner peace wash over you, please know that is my mother watching over you.
I love Mom. You will always be in my heart.

Thank you grandma for all you taught me, did for me and prayed for me. Thank you for those nights I got to stay up watching Dukes of Hazzard and drinking my 1st cup of coffee. You made me try so many things in my life, like dates, okra, brussel sprouts, liver and onions all of which I dislike so much. Most of all you taught me that with hard work and dedication I can do anything and that is something I wont forget. Please watch over all of us now and know I will always miss you and always love you.

Hey we loved the icing. I know your in a wonderful place now and you can have fun and dance all over the place with out any help. I love you and know that you know that. Liliana is 3 and she tells everyone that her grandma died, she gets this sad face on. I know she never met you but she feels like she knows you. We love you Grandma and will always have you with us. God wanted you to dance with him in heaven, I know thats why he called you home......Love, Blanca, Lily, Gavin...
