My avo. You will always be in my heart. The time my brother and I spent with you will be in my heart forever. You were a hero to me on how strong of a women you were and a amazing grandmother. I will remember our Christmas's will the fake tree that got smaller each year and the 4 blinking lights next to the tree that keep me entertained for hours. I loved sitting on the picnic bench in the summer listen to your life stories. I love you and your memories will live on forever.

Mia Querida Ti Tia Alexandrina.
I remember when I was a little girl we would come to visit you often. You would give me RITZ crackers and Ginger ale while we sat outside at the table and watch the traffic go by.
I remember the candy dish that sat on your hutch.
I remember your laugh. :)
I remember how much my grandfather loved you.

As I became a woman I came to appreciate your struggles and admire your strength and courage. Yet, you were so mild and loving.

You were amazing in so many ways, so highly respected and loved by many.
You will be missed as the oceans are deep.
I love you Ti Tia. XO

To my sweet and wonderful aunt:
I will miss you so very much! It will never be the same without you. I will cherish the moments we shared together over tea and cookies and remember the beauty on your face when we both would laugh over silly past time stories. It was a great pleasure to spend time with you and how I felt loved when you wished the best for me. I have the utmost respect for you, a high strong but yet kind and loving lady...my aunt.
Sweet dreams until we meet again with our lord.

To my beautiful Aunt: I will miss you so much. You had such a huge impact on all of our lives and you didn't even know it. You worked so hard and helped so many people. I will never know anyone with your strength and love in my lifetime.

There will always be a special place in my heart for you and I can rest knowing that someday I will see you again. I know just where to find you, standing right next to Jesus.
