It´s been 10 years since you became our Angel in heaven. So much has changed with our family. New jobs, new homes, retirement, new grandkids. So much has happened. All good. You would be so proud of your kids and the parents they have become and the successful lives they live. But the one thing that hasn´t changed is how much you are missed and loved by all everyday. The memories still bring happiness and smiles. But your absence is still felt. We celebrate this Mother´s Day without your presence but in our hearts. We are all together to celebrate you and the wonderful mother and Momo you were. We love and miss you dearly. My life without you has changed me forever. But know that you are in my heart, thoughts and memories. Love you forever. Till we meet again.

Its been 5 years since you left us. Our loss breaks my heart and saddens me to this day. Things have never been the same and am well aware that they never will be again. The void you left will never be filled. Ive tried to keep our traditions and no matter what or how I do it, it never feels complete. You were the center of our family and to so many more, a very special lovable person. You are truly missed by all and the memories in my / our hearts will last forever. One day, we will be joined again. I love you and miss you very much.

Mom,
I miss you so much...As I sit here rocking my sweet baby girl, I wish I could call you...call to tell you about all the cuteness and cry to you with my frustrations at the same time. I need you so bad and it hurts that you aren't here. This year will be 5 years since you were taken from us. There are still days that I'm driving and think of something and grab my phone to call you only to put it right back down when reality hits. Nothing has been the same and there are days I just want to run away. There have been so many great moments that I just wanted to hug you so tight and share them with you. You'll be so proud of Crystalynn powering through her first semester in college, Josh still loving and being awesome at baseball, me getting married in Hawaii - I know you loved it there, having this sweet beautiful baby girl. All such great memories but none of them with completely happy tears - there were sad tears too because everything I do, everything I push the kids to do, is to continue to make you proud. I love you and miss you more than I could put into words.....

Dear Veronica,

Happy birthday. You are in my heart forever. I am listening to the Taylor Swift Album we always listened to together - your favorite was Should've Said No but our favorite was Mary's Song. We loved Tim McGraw too, but we couldn't quite figure out what the song meant. I wish we had had more time to figure it out, I have some more ideas I want to run by you.

I love you so much. The world got an amazing present today when you were born. You are still the best person I have ever known and no one will ever compare. I know you are spending your day somewhere in sunshine and on vacation, and I might wish that you were spending it with your family or with me, but I still hope that one day you will be with them again, and I will get to see you again too. That will be a relief; I've never quite figured out how to take care of myself as well as you took care of me. I love you, and in the meantime, at least you can be in the sunshine and keep your house temperature just the way you want it.

See you in my dreams.

Dear Veronica,

Sometimes it just hits me how beautiful you were. I was just in bed at school trying to go to sleep and for some reason I just thought of you. I thought of just driving in your silver minivan, and looking at you and you looking at me, and you would smile, and your teeth were so beautiful and your face was so beautiful and you were so tan and beautiful and happy. When Erica came to visit us I started crying because she looked so much like you and she was smiling at me and her teeth were exactly like yours. I love you so much and I miss you so much. You brighten up my world. I just got a picture painted of you, and there is this little piece of wall that hangs from my ceiling. It looks over my bed and it's really high up - higher than anything else in my room. I'm going to put our picture there, because you are my angel and I know that you are always watching over me, and I can look at your big beautiful smile every night when I go to bed.

A really long time ago you told me that I wasn't allowed to be sad when you died. I'm not doing a very good job of that, especially not right now, but I think I'm doing a really good job of being happy that you lived, and that some of your life happened around me.

Love,

Hannah.

Dear Veronica,

I have not written to you on here in a while. Logging on to this always makes me happy because of that beautiful picture of your beautiful, smiling face. When you said goodbye to me, you would always say "I'll see you in my dreams". That's the face I see in my dreams - it's you happy, healthy, and alive with your husband and family. That's who you were.

2016 is so much worse off without you. It would be so much better of a year if you were in it. This would be so much better of a world if you were still in it.

In the middle of the night on New Year's, Austin died (for others who might be reading this, Austin was our cat and she ADORED Veronica). You called her Austy McGee. She loved you - she followed you all around the house just waiting for one of the moments when you would take a break and give her some of your love and time. You used to tell me that you thought heaven was a big beautiful field of flowers. I know you were there waiting for Austin in that field of flowers.

Heaven is an amazing place, I'm sure. It's a place you welcomed and I know it's where you are right now, and it's a place that is so lucky to have you. And everyone likes to say that you are in a better place now, but I can't pretend, Veronica - I'm so jealous of heaven for having you. Heaven is wonderful already. Heaven is already beautiful, and amazing, and sweet and kind and loving. The world isn't as much. You, you were the shining star of the world. You made everything beautiful, and amazing, and sweet and kind and loving. It's hard for me not to want you and to think we need you down here, more than heaven does. I used to tell you that you were an angel and I was too right.

None of what I'm saying right now is true, except the angel part, because you WERE an angel. You left for a reason and because it was your time and I know you were okay with that and that you are in a better place and I understand it. It's just hard for me sometimes - I'm sure it's hard for all of us. All I'm really trying to say is that, I miss you. I miss you so so much and you are still the light of my world. If I can live my life with a fraction of your goodness, your heart, your caring, your hard, passionate, honest love, then I will be so proud of myself. I marvel every day that I was blessed enough to have you take care of me, have you love me, have you be raised by me, be one of the lucky people that you devoted yourself to. It's still the biggest blessing of my life. The way I feel sometimes without you makes it seem as though you are lost, as though you are somehow separate and gone from the world. But how can that be when you are still the most beautiful thing in the world? How can that be when I still haven't found something that even compares to your shadow, your voice, your hugs, one day with your love? I haven't found a love that compares to even the sight of your silver minivan pulling in to pick me up from school. No one else's character is that strong. No one else's love is that strong, and that bright, and that shared. Not like yours. I've kind of talked myself in a circle here, and I know that. But I love you. Take good care of Austin, and I can't wait for the day when I see you again so that we can be together. In the meantime, I'll see you in my dreams. You are my Mama and my sweet sweet angel. I love you.

Merry Christmas V!! I miss you so much and not a single day goes by that I don't think about you. You are a constant in my life. There will always be a part of my heart that will always be broken!
I see you in your kids every time I'm around them and it makes me smile!
I hope to see you in my dreams again one day!
Love u always,
❤ Patricia

I want to let you know I still love you, I still miss you so much, and I still think about you everyday. Nothing has changed really I still feel the same pain I did when you left. I think I will always miss you. The feeling of emptiness I have inside will never be filled, if anything it is only going to grow. I say that because I know you will be greeting grandma in heaven soon. I hate to talk like that but I can feel it. Whether I'm surrounded by family, friends, or alone it really doesn't matter, because the one person I really want to be near isn't here. However I will be fine. I am a strong girl, and I come from a strong family. Every now and then I feel a presence and in my heart and gut (mainly my heart) I know it's you. I just wish I can see and talk to you. I know you are still watching over us and taking care of us from where you are. like I said it's just hard not seeing, holding, or talking to you.On a good note God has been so great to Andrew and I. But you already know that. ;)
Well the world is asleep, it's pretty late and I should probably get some rest too. Good night my angel. We love you tia.

Mom,
I miss you so much...I miss you when things are going really great, because you were my first phone call to talk about things and I miss you during times like this that I really just want to call you and cry and talk. I feel so lost still without you. Planning your Crystalynna's party isn't the same. Being happy in general isn't the same...when I hear people complain about their mom it angers me so badly because they don't know how lucky they are to have them and what I would give to have you back...just to talk on the phone about absolutely nothing, to meet for lunch...to watch lifetime with...it's so unfair...I know you are watching over us and I try really hard to keep it together and be strong for the kids, for jess...but it's too much for me sometimes. I read previous posts just now, and it makes my heart happy to know that we aren't the only ones who thought the world of you. My rock. I miss how insanely funny you were, even when you weren't trying to be. Every time I hear some one say sandwich, I think of how you would say "sangwich" ... I told the story the other day about our "incident" at Panera Bread that day after chemo...i was so embarrassed, I'm not gonna lie, but it was funny. I love you mom...so much, I miss you, and you will forever be in our hearts. I'll try not to cry so much, you and Jess always tease me cause I'm a cry baby. I love you. I love you. I love you.

Mom, the past 2 days have been so great for me!! Tuesday we talked about you and had dinner at the house with dad! It was awesome!! It was so hard Tuesday getting through the day! But, for some reason after that day and night I have been unbelievably great! Just talking about you and how funny, sarcastic, and truthful you where. I just want you to know I'm doing so much better, I love you and my dream was pretty funny last night, thanks for coming to see me!!! :)

Dear Veronica,

A year ago today, I lost you. I lost my Mommy, my role model, my friend, and my supporter. I lost the most loving, most beautiful person that I had ever been blessed to have known and to have had take care of me.

Thank you for dropping everything for me and everyone around you. Thank you for telling me the truth. Thank you for yelling at the lady at the park when her kids were mean to me. Thank you for picking me up off the floor and putting me back together, literally and metaphorically. Thank you for holding me. Thank you for showing me how to love - you were better at it thank anyone I have every met in the whole entire world. My day got a million times better just to see your silver minivan pull into school to come and get me. I couldn't handle the excitement of waiting until 9:30 every morning, as a kid, when your car would pull up in front of our old house and you would be here to spend the day with me. You were the best thing that has ever happened to me. You made every moment full of warmth and love, every moment special. Every moment with you, it was impossible to forget that I was loved, because I had you. All my times with you were bright and beautiful and amazing, because you were bright. You were beautiful. You were amazing. And I loved you and I haven't forgotten that.

A year ago today, I lost you. I thought my heart had broken, but then I realized that you hadn't done that. You wouldn't break my heart. You didn't do that to me. You made my heart. You made me. My heart belongs to you, and you still have it. Everything that I am is because of you. My world is darker without you, but it is so much more beautiful because you were in it.

You are not a past. You are a forever. You are the light of my life and the queen of my world. I love you so much.

Veronica,

I can't believe it's been a year since you've been away from us, it still seems unreal sometimes.

Thank you for your kindness towards my children and Stephanie, the laughter, the hilarious stories, the things that only you could get away with saying to people. You are missed and our family will never be the same without you. I love you and know you are always with us. Rachel

Your favorite Jess

Momma, today is the day my heart broke! I hate that I don't have you here, I try so hard to pretend that life is okay. I drown myself in work, to keep my mind going. But inside I'm dying. I will never be the same, ever. Thinking about you everyday is the joy that brings me to actually wake up everyday. I'm lost, I don't know how I don't even know how to do my day to day functions. I love you so much and I miss you! My days are long my nights are short. And there is nothing I can do to feel okay. Your the best! My life is nothing without you. I can't wait to see you again! Please visit me in my dream!

May 12, 2015

I'm sitting here in disbelief that it's been a year since we lost you. In one instant, I experienced a heartache so deep that I never thought I could feel. Everyone says that time heals and I'll be okay, but I'm still waiting to feel okay. I see you and your smile when I'm around the kids, it's so awesome to hear them say your funny quirky sayings about the craziest things that we would just laugh about. I would give anything to have that one more time. I wish this was all just a horrible nightmare I could wake up from. With all the human struggles I feel here, I am so very happy to know, without a doubt, that you are at peace. Since day one, that has been my only comfort in trying to accept the loss. My heart will never be the same and will never understand why!!! But, I promised you that I would be here for my brother and the kids, and I will keep my promise. I remember so clearly, you asking me to take care of your kids and I won't let you down V! I love you and miss you and hope to see you in my dreams again soon!
Love always and forever,
~Patricia

To my dear Angel in Heaven, how I miss you. I can't believe it's been a year since I had to say my final goodbye and give my final kiss goodnight. The sadness I felt then I still feel today. As I thought about this day I wondered how I would feel, what people would say to me, and more importantly , how our kids would be. As I traveled home today I thought many things. But the one thing that I can say with confidence, is that you raised some amazingly strong children. You would be so proud. I know you are proud. They have your strength and courage that you had to stand strong in difficult times. After reading the entries on this page and the one's on Facebook, yes, I am on Facebook now, I knew what I would say to anyone who asked " How are you". I would say that I have a choice of how I would keep your memory alive for me. I choose to smile vs. shed tears. I'll admit I shed tears today, but I can't help the sadness. But I decide to smile when I think of you for the wonderful lives we shared and the memories that we made along the way. There are too many too many to share, but those who knew "us", know exactly what I mean. You will always live in my heart. There is a space there that only belongs to you. I thank God for our time together. He lent you to me for almost 34 years, and then he took you home to be with him, amongst the other Beautiful angels. Please continue to watch over us my Beautiful Angel, for we know you are near. You were my first love, my life, my everything. Until we meet again, see you in my dreams. Miss you and Love you.

Hi Tia, I know you know all that's going on now because you are always near, so I won't go into details of our recent blessings. What I miss the most is your advice and what you would say when I didn't know what to do next, which is happening a lot these days. During our visits now I get so excited to see you I don't ever talk about the real issues that go on during my life. I loved how we didn't have to talk about anything but I still enjoyed the silence of your company. (We still have our silent moments) I miss you so much. It honestly doesn't feel like a year, mainly because my heart ache for your lost is still so painful. I love you, I miss you. See you soon.

Veronica Rodriguez reading to Hannah and Georgia Cooper. Happy Mother's Day Veronica, we love you so much.

Happy Mother's Day Veronica.

As much as Mommy is my Mom, you were my mommy. You did everything for me - you held me when I cried, you helped me when I was sick, you dropped everything for me, you yelled at the lady at the park when her kids wouldn't give me a turn on the swing. You were the person my parents called when they couldn't convince me to get my tooth capped at the dentist. You were the person my mom called when Georgia was hurt and didn't know what to do. You took me to Cold Stone for ice cream, even though you like Marble Slabs better. When Cold Stone closed, you took me to Marble Slab. When Marble Slab closed, you took me to TCBY. You came to see us and help us even if you were sick. I've never known someone in my life who was strong enough and amazing enough to come into a babysitting job and become, in a lot of ways, the most important part of our family. But you were. It was never a question to us or to anyone who knew our family how important you were, and how lucky we were to have you, and how hard it was to lost you. But we have not lost everything you have given us. It is the most important thing in my life. I love you so much and thank you for being the greatest mom ever.

Lots of love,

Hannah and Georgia

I thought I would post this letter we sent to our friends a year ago now:
*******
Sam and I wanted to let you know that our beloved Veronica Rodriguez, who has worked for us since 1999, passed away last night as a result of metastatic breast cancer. Veronica was diagnosed just over a year ago, in April 2013.

Veronica has been devoted to our family, and we to her, since the first day she came to work with us, when Hannah was about three months old. She has been a third parent to Hannah and Georgia, and a best friend to Sam and me. Many of Hannah and Georgia's fine qualities can be attributed to her. She lovingly and faithfully cared for my parents during the last year of their lives. And our four dogs and cats had eyes only for her.

In addition to being a major part of our family, she has four dynamic children and four gorgeous grandchildren of her own, as well as an amazing husband and a huge group of bunko-playing friends. Anyone who met her wanted to be her friend, so she made more new friends every year. She took her mother shopping every Saturday. Such a big web of people depended upon her.

Veronica's work ethic, her warmth, her sense of humor, her patience, her trustworthiness, and her formidable dignity set a fine example for our family. She always knew to be there when you needed her. It is hard to believe that we will have to carry on without this remarkable person.

Hi Little Lady,

First I would like to tell you Happy Mother's Day with lots of love!

It's been exactly 1 year since you been gone and it's been so surreal to me. That I didn't want to believe it.
I want to tell you thank you so much for fulfilling a part in my life that no one could. Being there for my family through the thick and thin and every space in between.
Things will never be the same with out you.
Your laughter, smile, and good heart that filled the room when you walked in, was so special.
The Memories that I have of you are like yesterday. I will never forget them.
I hear one of your favorite bands , The Dixie Chicks, and all I can do is think of you and shed tears.
I wish I could just hug you and tell you how much I miss and love you.

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to wright on here expressing it all.
There's so much that I want to say to you and I just don't know how.

Thank you so much for being you and everything you stood for.
I will always miss and love you!

April 15, 2015

I can't forget that fateful day,
you had to leave, you went away.
A sadness filled me up inside,
emotions that I could not hide.
Tears, they came, sadness too,
All my emotions, just for you.
Time will heal, so I was told,
but time could never fill this hole.
Here in my heart, there is this place,
your always there, keeping me safe.
It's filled with love and happy times,
it's never dark, your light, it shines.
In heaven now you do reside,
to watch over us with love and pride.
I know one day, we'll meet again,
until we do, just know how much I miss you
and you are ALWAYS with me!

I miss you so very, very much V!
Love, Patricia ❤

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.

Hi Sweetheart,
It's been 8 months today since my life was changed forever. I had no idea how I would go on. There's not a day that goes by that you are not in my thoughts multiple times. Sure doesn't feel like 8 months. I still have what I call BAD days. Days that are hard for me to control my emotions. There are so many triggers. I couldn't even watch the "Voice" all the way because I remember how we would bet on who would get voted off and who was going to win. I miss so much of what we shared everyday. I know that you have gone by to see some people in their dreams. I am still waiting for you. I know that you are waiting for the right time. But I truly enjoy the stories of your visit as everyone mention's how beautiful and happy you look. I ask that you continue to watch over us " Our Angel" and I pray that God continues to provide me strength and courage. The holidays were extremely tough. But we all knew you were here in spirit. I know that I felt it. Life is really tough without you. But I am trying. I miss you so very much. I am so sorry you got sick. I wish I could have traded places with you. But things don't work like that. People often say that all things happen for a reason, I just wish I knew why you. I'll stop now, as I know that there will never be a good enough reason. I love you, I miss you, you are in my heart and my life forever. Till I see you in my dreams. Good night,
Love, Babe

Hi V! It's been 8 months today that our lives were changed forever!! I think about you so much and I miss you! Christmas was so hard without you there! We know you were there though. It was definitely an emotional roller coaster for me. I wasn't sure how to feel or what to do, but it was comforting knowing you were there. Sandy knew that you were gonna make something happen to prove your presence and you did! They were playing Christmas songs on the radio and her and Jess were talking at the table and all of a sudden, your favorite song came on, "Somewhere Over The Rainbow", and after the song was over, the music completely stopped! Sandy came to tell me and it made me so happy! We know that was your doing and you wanted it known! I miss you sooo very much and I hope to see you in my dreams again one day! I pray that you are resting and at complete peace in God's Hands! I love you to the moon and back forever and ever V! Until we meet again!
Love, Patricia

Hi Tia, today is my birthday. I turn 23. I miss you so much. I wish you were still here. I still have my really bad days like today. It's selfish of me to want you back because I know you are very happy in heaven. I love you. I miss you Tia. I'm keeping you in my prayers.

Hey Momma,
ITS HALLOWEEN!!!! :) today my stomach is in knots, because I know today is our day to sit in the drive way and pass out candy. Hoping the neighborhood kids don't get freaked out by Oscar being weird! :D lol. I miss you so much momma. Kaleb is so excited about today, he turns into BATMAN as soon as he puts on his costume. And refers to himself as batman. He's crazy. I wish you could see how cutie pie emmie looks. We miss you so much. Halloween will never be the same! I love you and miss you terribly momma. Kaleb always says that momo is the best momo ever! :) and I always tell him "DUH, of course she is the best!"

Mi Amiga, mi Hermana la mejor persona que he conocido en mi vida que aunque ya no te tenga en cuerpo presente cada dia de mi vida no dejo de pensar en ti y de acordarme de todos los momentos que vivimos juntas. como te dije un dia en una tarjeta que gracias a ti el haber llegado a otro pais lejos de mi familia y mis costumbres habia sido mas facil porque tu y tu familia me hacian sentir que no estaba sola, aprendi muchas cosas de ti que siempre las tendre en mi corazon y para mi vida pero la mas importante fue tu valentia para poder llevar tu enfermedad me enseñaste a ver la vida de otra forma porque yo no podia entender que una mujer tan buena se estuviera llendo, pero cada dia que compartimos con tu enfermedad fue inexplicable y de todo lo que vivimos me quedo fue lo mejor. yo me podria quedar escribiendo toda la noche solo diciendote cosas bellas porque eso es lo que tengo en mi corazon de ti pero tu las sabes mejor que yo. porque yo se que donde estes nos miras y nos cuidas y estas muy feliz. como te dije amiga el ultimo dia que nos vimos. GRACIAS Y EN EL CIELO NOS ENCONTRAMOS

Hey Veronica.
I miss you. You were one of the sweetest people I have ever met. Even though it wasn't your job to care for me, you still did as if I was your own child. I wish you were still here with us on Earth, but I'm glad that your happy in Heaven and no longer suffering. As Hannah and I got older, you still found time to ask me about what shows I was doing and what songs I was singing, when you didn't have to know. Some of the greatest memories I have from my childhood happened because of you in some way and I want to thank you so much for that. Even when you were battling the devil that is cancer, you managed to smile and compliment me on my shorts. You were such an amazing person. I'm so glad I had the honor to know you throughout these 14 years of my life.
I love you and miss you.

Dear Veronica,

I miss you so much. I'd give anything in the world to have you at your home back in Texas healthy with your family and my family. My family's incomplete without you and we'll never be half as good as we were when we were blessed enough to have you with us. You are still everywhere in my life, Rodjica, even if it's not exactly the way that I would want. My room is covered with pictures of you. I remember things that you've said to me everyday. Last night I was cleaning out my email and I found a draft of an email that I wrote to Mommy for her to read to you, but never sent. I remember several years ago when Molly, our dog (I could call her our dog but she loved you the most) passed away, and you said that you thought heaven was a big, beautiful field of flowers in the clouds and that Molly was running and jumping through them and she was healthy again. I don't know if you're running and jumping - maybe you're sitting on a chairlift or tubing down some river - but I know you're they're now, and all I can say is that it better be real nice up there because you deserve the best and more that the world, my world or His heaven, could ever give you even if you didn't get that last May. It's September and I still don't know how we're supposed to function without you. You poured your whole heart into everything you did in a way that no one could ever help but love you. We still do, Veronica. Every single minute of every single day I know we all miss you. You were such a blessing and you still are, just a different kind. Rest in peace and I'll see you in my dreams.

(One of) your baby girls,

Hannah

Mom, I've been waiting for the right time to write here...Today is Crystalynn's birthday and it makes me so sad that you aren't here to call and plan what we are doing tonight. Every day is hard, but days like this make it almost unbearable... knowing that things will never be the same. Crystalynn has roses for her birthday for your presence, but I would give anything in the world for you to be here...bossing dad around telling him to order her a cake, and "make sure they do it right". Thank you again for showing me what a good mom is...and even though you were taken from me way too soon, the love you showed me and my babies will be in our hearts forever. I am doing my best to take care of your girls like I promised you I would, and am trying to find the strength that you had along the way. My days are incomplete without our daily phone calls, but I know you are watching over us and see everything I want you too (even the things I don't want you too). I miss you more than words can describe.

I love you...

Momma!
I am having a really hard day! On the way to daycare this morning, kaleb told me that he was crying in his dream about you bc he wanted you to stay. It broke my heart, he said that that you came down from the sky and played with him at your house and then he didn't want you to go back in the sky! Im dying inside mom, I try and keep myself busy. But I feel like im just digging myself deeper in a hole that is just getting darker and harder to get out of!

Hey V,
Sorry it's taken me so long to get here. I'm still not sure that I can do this. I look at your picture every day. I still can't believe that you are not here with us. I am trying to be as strong and courageous as you were but it is very difficult. I know you are in a better place and you are not in pain anymore. There are so many times in my day that I think about you and see things that remind me of you. I look forward to seeing you in my dreams. I love you V. I miss you so much.

ps: Thanks for getting us home the other night. I know it was you! :)

Hi there Roni, I really don't know where to start... All I know is that I truly miss you so much. I miss your smile and your laugh especially . Since you joined our Father in heaven it has been very difficult not to cry when I think about you. The sadness I feel is a sadness I have never experienced before.. An empty space in my heart that can never be filled. My brother is trying to be strong but I can see the pain and sadness in his eyes. He misses you so much as do your kids. Please guide me in helping them get through this difficult, difficult time. I promised you that I will be there for them and I will.
I know you are watching over all of us Roni, because that's just who you are... The only thing that gives me comfort is that you are no longer suffering or in pain. Your strength and your courage is something I will always admire about you. I will never forget you Roni. You will always be in my heart. Till we see each other again,, I love you and miss you....

I remember her telling me she made it a priority that she would spend my 22nd birhday with me. Lord only knows how much I miss her.

Hi Tia...
I am so sorry. I feel my days going down hill. I am not as strong as I was in the beginning. Every time I cry for you I cry as if you've just passed. Everyday that passes I miss you more and more. People say the pain will go away and I will be able to remember and talk about you without shedding a tear. But when will that day come? I go to bed wanting to see you, wanting to hold you. I hear all the stories about the ones you have visited with, those stories make me happy. I look for you everywhere I go. Grandma and my mother are so strong. I know they miss you so much as well as everyone else. I will not stop waiting, I know my visitation will come. Until then I will be here patiently waiting. Hugs and kisses from all of us down here.
We love and miss you Tia.

Today I added some photos to the guest book and they brought me to tears, lots of them!!! Looking back at those pictures, brought back some great memories. We don't realize how precious those times are until a piece of your heart is taken from you and then see things will never be the same. Even though, you are in such a much better place, I still wish you were here for your kids, my brother and your grandkids. Our hearts still hurt so very much for you. I found a Halloween video of you and I could hear your voice and your laugh and I miss that so much! I hope you come visit me in my dreams again. There have been so many things that have happened since you've been gone, that proves your still here with us, especially at Jordan's graduation! I don't have to remind you, you already know how that worked out! :D I love and miss you so much V!!! I can't wait for the day that I get to see your face again!

More than likely, Veronica just said something very funny, making Ramon almost have an accident!

Hi momma!
I have been thinking about you A LOT more than usual! I am missing you so much! I can barely remember parts of my day because you are in my thoughts and it just takes me away! Please give me the strength to get through life, because right now life is overwhelming and it's taking a toll on me! I still talk about you all the time, people probably think I'm crazy; but hey I'm pretty sure they thought that before! ;) I love you momma!

P.S. come visit me in my dreams or kalebs or emmies...not oscars!! ;D

My beautiful cousin, the last time we spoke was earlier this year after your surgery, you said "I don't want to be sick anymore, I want to be on vacation". That is how I am going to remember you, you are on vacation. I know growing up, we didn't know each other even though we are cousins. But once we finally did meet, it was like we had known each other all our lives. I loved the fact that you were an hour ahead of me, so I would call you on my way to work and we would talk, laugh, and tell each other whatever we wanted. You would tell me about your banco friends and your shopping sprees with your girls, you would tell me about Hannnah & Georgia, they were also your girls. When we spoke on the phone I also would hear what your family remembers about you, like, "I can't find my keys", "I can't find my glasses". We would talk until one of us got to our jobs. I so admired that you actually loved your job. I also saw at the services, just how much they loved you. Thank you for all the times you would go meet us in San Antonio for Tejano Fan Fare. I will always remember your smile, your laughter, your love for your husband, your children, grandchildren, mother, your siblings,nieces,nephews, cousins, friends and all your in-laws. You definitely were the rock. You will be missed by so many who loved you but you will never be forgotten. I will cherish all the beautiful memories. Until we meet again, please watch over all of us, our beautiful Angel.

My heart will never be the same...the only peace I find is knowing that you are whole and in no more pain. I'm so grateful for the years that we all had with you and so grateful that I had the opportunity to thank you for giving us our beautiful nieces and nephews. I feel like I've cried everyday for the passed 13 months, but my tears come from a different kind of pain now. I miss you so much V and like I told you, I can't wait to see you again one day. I pray that you visit me in my dreams soon. You are forever my Guardian Angel. You will Forever be Missed and Never Forgotten! Thank you for all the great memories and making us laugh.

my momo was best woman that I had,I loved her with all my heart. It is hard to go through this, the best thing to do is to think of all the memories that makes us laugh. Even though we can see her she is watching over is in a place where she is in no pain and that is the best place for her. we will never forget her.

Crystalynn Miranda

MY momo was the best. I loved her with all of my heart. Every time I was with her she would always have me laughing and smiling. We have so many memories that will stay in my heart forever. It's tough going through this, but knowing she is in no more pain helps getting through this. Even though I can not see her I know she will forever be in our hearts.
I love you momo and miss you already.

May 17, 2014

She was my rock. She was my best friend, she was my life. I feel at peace because I know she is at peace. I am at a loss for she not only guided me, but guided us, our family. I have big shoes to fill. Beneath the surface, she was the one who held our family together. Today was one of the hardest days of life. But it hit me when I saw the number of people who attended your service, of how many lives you impacted. People loved you. People will miss you. You were so important to so many. There are those who never knew of your struggles. Those who never knew of your pain. Not how I knew them. But I would have to say, you are the most courageous person I believe I will ever know. In today's service, I gave you credit for making me the man that I am today. For I know it to be true, you were everything to me. I read the messages, and they remind me so much of what you stood for. That you were the most honest and sincere person there was to know. You will be missed by so many. It was obvious by today's attendance. how many people you touched. I know that I can never say enough about what you meant to me and others. But there is one thing for sure, you will remain in my heart for the rest of my life. I love you. I miss you. I am saddened of your loss.But know that you are my Angel in Heaven watching over me and our family with love. I will miss you and never forget our journey together. Good night my love, see you in my dreams.

My dear Aunt, I was not ready to end our relationship. I miss you so much it aches my heart. Our family will never be the same without you. But I know you would not want us to live the rest of our lives crying and grieving so for you I will stay my strongest and comfort my family. I will help complete your unfinished goals. I will forever keep your memory alive. You will always be in my heart, my prayers, my dreams, my memories, and my conversations. Our goodbye is not forever, we will be together again someday. I love and miss you dearly. Rest in paradise my Guardian Angel.
