I will always remember when we were young and we put on a Christmas play for the family at the house. You dressed as an angel with wings. I can still remember how beautiful it all was, and what a happy, fun time we all had. May God bless you, always.

For the short time that I knew Aunt Alice, she showed me what a humble person she was, she had this great personality and always made you feel welcome. In our last telephone conversation, what I remember most is what she said, "I love you guys". She will be missed dearly and for Uncle Rick and the family, thank you for sharing this wonderful lady that was a part of our lives. She'll be missed. Love. Roberta Puente (Pasadena, CA)

Mom: I will miss you deeply. I will miss your daily phone on my way home from work to see how my day went and catch me up on the family events family. I am going to miss hearing your voice! I thank God every day for you and the time we had. Life is full of ups and downs and we often pray for God to take way the low spots or bad times but those life-altering opportunities shape us into the person we were meant to become. You instilled in me the strength, the grit, and the back-bone to endure; to be the better person and face the challenges head-on with grace, style, and conviction.
So in the words of Suzy Toronto: “When life starts to resemble a roller coaster, climb into the front seat, throw your arms in the air, and enjoy the ride!” You showed us how to do that. I love you and will miss you always! Thank you for always being the strength and heart of the family. In your honor, I will continue to: Live Life Well; Laugh Often and Loud; Love unconditionally; and Praise God Daily!
Your daughter, Debbie

My thoughts and prayers go out to you all, she was like a mother
to me. She made feel like I was her son and made feel like I was truly part of the family as you all did. I've been thinking about her quite a bit, things she has done and the way she stood up for her family. One of my most favorite memories of mom is after she met the girl I was dating for the first and when she would say good bye to them. She would say " good bye, nice to meet you and I hope to see you again". I would look at the girl, shrug my shoulders and we would all bust out in laughter. I will definitely miss her but I'm thankful for all the memories she has left me. I love you all and God Bless!
