Bridesmaid of Cecilia Coy

(Eulogy)
although I will always miss her, I am relieved. I am relieved that my mom is no longer controlled by the limitations of her body’s illnesses, like pain, time, temperature, or fatigue. Shes no longer on someone elses schedule, time no longer exists for her, but if it did, its finally on her side. it will never be too cold inside or hot outside, she’ll never have to hide from the sun in layers and hats, it will no longer take days to recover.

shes no longer controlled...

Elizabeth, querida prima, recuerdo muchos momentos bonitos que compartimos, cuando ustedes venian a visitarnos a Cd. Juárez, siempre con tu alegre sonrisa, bromeando con todos los primos.
Disfrutabamos muchísimo su visita.
Te vamos a extrañar, pero sabemos que algún dia nos reuniremos de nuevo.
Siempre te llevaremos en nuestro corazón .
Con mucho cariño. Tu prima Nenis

Thank you Sally

Liz was the Matriarch of your family and always took care of everyone. Millie loved and respected her so much. Millie also loved Johnny, Rachel, Lizzy and Mona so much! I send all of you a hug and my condolences.
