To the Cisneros and Valdez families, I was also lucky enough to call Lorita my friend at Mansfeld and Tucson High. She was strong, strong willed, popular, smart, funny, beautiful. Although we had lost touch, I am glad to know she was blessed by a loving husband and children to add to her loving family, and she lives on in all of you and through our memories. May the Lord give you strength and comfort during this painful time. Know that she stands with him watching over you now. Lorita you are at peace to share your infectious laughter with the angels! Thank you for your friendship. Blessings to you all: Suzanne Jacobs-Desjardin and family
