Mrs. Emma, I can't begin to say what an impact you and your family had on me growing up. I loved visiting and sharing time with your family Those were by far, the best years I remember. I'm very sorry I was never able to say this to you in life. I miss you, and Rene and Mr. Botana very much.

Mom, It's been just a week and I miss you so much. I went to call you last night and remembered the Novela's were on, then I remembered you weren't home. Love, Patty
