Momma will always be remembered as the matriarch of the family. The one who taught us unconditional love. The one who made our childhood perfect as she loved our get togethers, our camping trips to Garner, our weekends at Skateland West. She loved dancing to Tejano and listening to some old favorites like Hank Williams and Elvis. She loved waking up early to make tacos with homemade tortillas for dad and his work crew every morning and made sure we had the latest clothes that came out for school. She loved Valentines Day, Easter and Christmas, she made sure to decorate the house. As we grew up, mom took care of all our children so that we didn’t have to put them in day care. Each of the grandkids have special stories and connections with momma. She was a very important person that we all love and life will never be the same, but we will accept this as we know she is no longer suffering and has been reunited with her mom and dad, sisters, and brother that she talked about in the end. This is not a goodbye momma, this is a, “I will see you soon, save a spot for us.” 

Please join us as we gather to honor Isabel in tribute, prayer, and love.
