Thinking of you and daddy, we are planning a Ronquillo sister's family reunion just the thought of you two not being there upsets my stomach but most of all my heart aches. I love and miss you and daddy.

I thought about you and Daddy all weekend, Father's Day was always a big day for us, you always made Dad a big dinner, we spent the day with him. We had food, music and lots of laughs. I sure miss those days. I love and miss you and Daddy so much my heart aches.
"la Petsy" as you would say and as daddy would say "es la Patricia"

Nana,
You have been on my mind soooo much lately and last night I was able to see and hear you once again, in my dreams. I dreamt of you ALL night. I did not want to wake up. I was sad but felt a sense of comfort and peace today like you were telling me that you are indeed in peace and happy. What was funny was that as soon as I turned on the t.v. this morning the Price is Right was on and the woman who was spinning the wheel was named Rebecca(didn't think much about it) then I changed it to Sesame Street for Lynnea and Elmo was talking to a little girl named Rebecca. Call it a coincidence but nana I know you are just letting me know you will always be with us in some way, shape or form! I love you and miss you still. Like I always say until our next dream. I will take you a Big Hunk on Easter. Lynnea heard me,Adrian and Emerick talking about you the other day and said she wanted to go to Nana Becky's house. I wish we could've just driven to the old house but we'll take her to see you on Easter. She likes putting flowers down for you.
Love you and talk to you soon...

Well, still not a day goes by that I don't think of you nana. Sometimes I just sit and cry staring into space. The other day I was crying alot but had to stop when Lynnea came up to me and said "mama cying" and gave me a hug. I have alot of these moments. I miss u sooooo much. I had my first dream of you the other night and woke up in the morning excited because I thought I would be able to see you walking around and enjoying the company of your family. Then I realized it was a dream.:( I will rely on these dreams to be able to hug you and hear your voice.
Love you nana until the next dream...
-Becky

Nana I wish I had the honor of knowing you longer. I want to thank you for always making me feel welcome and sharing your wonderful family that you and tata have created. I am so blessed to have them in my life. It takes an amazing, kind, and strong woman to have nurished and raised so many sweet and wonderful people. I am glad that you are at peace now. May you rest among the angels <3

Nana,
I miss you so much!! I just want to hear your voice one more time, even if you just want to ask if my car needs llantas. I admit that I've been hiding in my own world away from everyone so I don't have to see how much they hurt right now. I know I shouldn't be that way and I did go to my Mom's last night to spend time with everyone. Tata is doing good he misses you but he'll be alright. We all will because you taught us how to be strong.
Whenever I have a bad day I pull up one of the many memories I have of you. Nana tickling my back and singing the mimi song so I could fall asleep. Nana coming into my room on an early summer morning to open the curtains and window.... I used to lay in bed listening to the birds respond to whatever song you whistled as you watered your trees. Nana coming in to our room each night to bless us. Nana kneeling for prayers in front of her Santos. Nana sharing her morning cup of coffee loaded with sugar and cream. Nana chasing me with the matamoscas for whatever travesuras I got into.... I blame the coffee for that. Nana humming as she made tortillas and taking the time to show me how to roll them out. I wish I had paid attention to the rest of the process because all I can make now are frisbees. Nana sewing someone a new pair of shorts. You would let me push the material through the machine if I behaved. Nana rubbing tiger balm or pomada on whatever hurt me.... tiger balm reminds me of Nana. Nana melting butter and sugar to calm my cough...most of the time I faked it but I'm sure you figured that out. Nana at my high school graduation hugging me tight and telling me how proud you were. Nana holding my babies and humming her song to them. Nana at Walmart looking for just the right top even if you really didn't need it. Trying to sneak a bag of peanut M&M's and trying to tell me they were for my Tata.
I have so many memories to find comfort in. In those memories there are also life lessons; taking time out for yourself each morning, patience with your children, consequences for each travesura, time for prayers and love always lots of Love. You are and always will be with us as we go through life, you've left your hand prints on our hearts. I Love and Miss you so much. Duérmete mi Nana, Duérmete mi sol, Duérmete pedaso de mi corazon.

Nana,
I don’t even know where to begin. Words cannot describe all of the things I will miss about you from your food, your lullaby to the phone conversations we have had. Your tortillas, tacos, hot chocolate were the best not to mention your capirotada, and the chile con carne you taught me to make. You were at every one of my softball games. You especially loved all star season, wearing your maroon and gold t shirt. I loved watching you and tata dancing at all the family gatherings. You were always the last one to leave. You loved each and every one of your kids, grandkids, great-grandkids, and even those who were not your own. No one wanted to leave your house it was so relaxing and welcoming. You enjoyed having us over, hanging out just bumming around in the living room or sitting outside whether we were eating ice cream or having a carne asada. You would engage in every conversation because whoever knows our family there is always multiple conversations going on at the same time. I will miss going over and watching the D-backs games with you and tata. I remember you would sit and do crosswords wearing your white reeboks looking at the T.V. every now and then yelling at the team if they did bad, cussing in English and Spanish.
Nana there was so many good times from childhood through adulthood that I will treasure always. Thank you for every moment. Thank you for babysitting Emerick when he was a baby. Thank you for the Virgen De Guadalupe that you gave me and told me to pray so I could have another baby. I did and still have her hanging over Lynneas crib. Adrian thanks you for accepting him into your heart and treating him as if he were your own grandson. I knew you were tired when the last conversation we had you couldn’t talk because you were in so much pain. You told me " Aye Mijita voy a colgar porque me duele mucho"
I knew that might have been our last phone call. You were always one of the first to call and wish me a Happy B-day. That too will be difficult day. I love you and know you are at peace it just hurts so bad knowing I will never hear your voice again or give you a hug and a kiss. I just want you to know you were the best nana anyone could ask for. You touched so many hearts. They do not make them like you anymore.
God Bless you descansa nana bonita descansa....
Love Becky, Adrian, Emerick, Lynnea

Nana,
I miss you so much! It's hard to accept that you're gone and I will always remember all of our time spent together from my childhood memories to getting our nails done,shopping and going to lunch. My Nana, the original "Real Housewife of Tucson". I love you more than words can say. I find comfort knowing that you are with God and at peace even though letting you go is so difficult. In the days that come, I have faith in the Lord that He will give our family the strength that we need to move forward. We will forever honor you and celebrate your life and the tremendous amount of love you gave each one of us.

I am so very sorry to hear that you are having to go through such saddness. I loved your mother very much and respected her even more. I am so grateful for the friendship both Becky and Ralph had with my mother Marta. My mother could laugh, cry, sing and feel right at home no matter what was going on around the world. I still miss my mom so very much but feel better that she will have a great friend close by. Thank You for sharing your Mother,Nana y Esposa con todos que la admiraban.

So sorry to hear your Mother has passed on. I've not seen you or your parents in years, but I always remember the early years in Barrio Hollywood. She is at peace and in God's hands. My Mom passed on 8 years ago, so I know what you are feeling right now. God is great and he'll get you thru this tremendous pain.
My condolences to you and all of your family.
God Bless her and God Bless You.
