My thoughts and prayers go out to the Nava and Carrillo families...I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother and grandmother. She was such a sweet and loving woman - I have so many wonderful memories of growing up with your families and of the barbecues and pool parties at her home. She always had a terrific smile, a loving and welcoming heart, and was truly beautiful, inside and out.

May you find some peace in knowing that she will be watching over you all from heaven with love.

We are very sad to hear of the passing of Mrs. Nava. We grew up next door and have so many fond memories of Mr. & Mrs. Nava and your family. We were on vacation when Mr. Nava passed away and then we have since moved to Louisiana and Georigia. We never could call them by their first names. It was always Mr. & Mrs. Nava.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
