Bertha Tristan Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 25, 2016.
BERTHA RAQUEL TRISTAN Nació en la ciudad de México D.F. el 31 de Diciembre de milnovecientos threinta nueve. El 24 de Octubre del año presente Dios le hablo a descansar. Después de 20 años que el stroke la dejo paralizada y batallando con sus enfermedades. Su corazón se canso. Era una batalla que ella siempre podía superarlo. Ella luchaba fuertemente para vivir. Para no ver sus hijos llorar y sufrir. Una LUCHADORA HASTA EL FINAL!!! Dios sabia que ella estaba sufriendo. Nuestro Padre la necesitaba. Ahora va rumbo, esta llegando al cielo, entrando al Reino de Dios a lado de nuestros seres queridos. Para descansar y estar en un mundo mejor lleno de paz, salud, y alegria. Ahora podra caminar, correr, bailar, sin dolor alguno.

Nuestra Madre Querida por mucha gente. Mama era una gran mujer con un gran corazon.

Dear God thank you for giving us an amazing mother. A mother that was willing to take others as her own to love them and care for them. A mother that went above and beyond to give us what we needed. A mother that never or rarely laid one hand on us her children. Even when we might have needed a good spanking. A mother who became a miracle to us as she fought through every battle even by being paralyzed for the last 20 yrs. A mother who became a friend to many. A mother who got up every morning, riding Metro just to get to work for us. A Mother who took us out on every Friday her only day off. So that we could have some children fun. To downtown "The Parks Mall" to have pizza, to East wood park to go swimming, to the zoo or the parks. All with out a vehicle riding metro. A mother who worked for 19 yrs at St.Joseph hospital. In the cafeteria for 16 yrs, and then laundry department for 3yrs. A mother who still found time to be a team mom. For our younger brothers baseball team, and even a room mom at our school. A mother who came to all her children's school events and PTO meetings. A mother who although she had to work almost every holidays and Christmas. Due to working in a hospital. She still found a way to give us the best Christmas and holidays. A mother who did layways at Three Sisters in Downtown, Sears, Kmart to buy us her children the best always. A mother who also taught us her children how to shop at thrift stores, get handy downs, not only how to have the best. Also taught us to be humble. And to appreciate what she could give us. A mother who taught us the LOVE of GOD, to be thankful, kind, loving, caring. A mother who cooked wonderful dishes. A mother who would go above and beyond. A mother who defended us her children with her every being. A mother who never seen no wrong doing in her children. Even when others had proof that her children where doing wrong things. In our mothers eyes we where her perfect children. A mother who was caring with a simple touch of hand or hug you would feel her unconditional love. A mother who created a beyond beautiful family that will always be grateful for everything that she has done. Thank You God for giving us a beyond amazing mother. We have been truly blessed to have had her. Tus Hijos y Hijas Gracias Mami, Te queremos mucho siempre te recordaremos. Descanze en Paz Mama WE LOVE YOU!

Mexico Lindo y Querido Si muero lejos de ti. Que digan que estoy dormida. Y que me traigan aqui.
De parte de nuestra familia "Estoy muy agradecida con todas las personas que nos han demostrado su cariño en estos momentos difíciles. Sé que a todos sus hijos, familia y amistades nos ha dado muy duro el fallecimiento de nuestra madre. Enfrentar el fallecimiento de mi madre amada es muy doloroso, sin embargo sientimos consuelo por saber que ustedes están a nuestro lado. Sé que siempre le recordaremos en nuestros corazones como una gran mujer llena de alegría que nunca se daba por vencida, lucho haste el final. Una persona que siempre penso en sus hijos. Por no ver nos sufrir su partida. Agradezco mucho sus palabras de ánimo en esta dura situación. A los que han brindado su apoyo, traido comida y dar nos una sonrisa, abrazo, oh para escucharnos, en estos mometos muy dificle gracias. Dios los bendiga mucho y nos ayude aliviar la tristeza tras la pérdida de nuestra madre. Les agradesemos mucho mis hermanos, hermanas y yo Ana Luisa T.Valle

Thank you all (family and friends) for the beautiful sympathy words, words of encouragement, offering of help, and prayers. Our entire family has been devastated with the death of our beloved mother she was the rock of our family. We were united together as one beautiful family because all the hard efforts she made for each and every one of us. She loved to see us together and the more her family grew the bigger her heart grew. Making room to give us all grand love. She clearly was an amazing mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. Please forgive us if we don't answer calls or text as we grieve the passing of her death. We are reading all text, emails, & social media posts and we see how much love everyone is sending out to us and we truly appreciate it. May God give us strong courage for what we have to face in the days ahead of us. God give us strength!

My Tia Bertha
I thought I saw her face today
In the sparkle of the morning sun.
And then I heard the angel say,
"Her work on earth is done."

I thought I heard her voice today
Then laugh her hearty laugh.
And then I heard the angel say,
"There's peace little one at last."

I thought I felt her touch today
In the breeze that rustled by.
And then I heard the angel say,
"The spirit never dies."

I thought that she had left me
For the stars so far above.
And then I heard the angel say,
"She left you with her love."

I thought that I would miss her
And never find my way.
And then I heard the angel say,
"She's with you every day."

Words can never express enough, but our hearts go out to y'all, love your cousin Delores and Miguel Santos; Floresville Texas
