My heart and love is with you my cousins, Sally, Roland, Lloyd Rael. I remember the memories we shared together when we were younger. My dad Melquiades Rael and mom Frances Rael were very much brother and sister to your parents, my Tio Senovio, Tia Molly. Tia Mooly was a kind and strong lady and always thought about others in a loving way. I know she will be missed now, but she lives with you and she is with her husband and with Jesus Christ the Lord.
