Not sure what to say?

It seems like just yesterday, Ellie & I were co-workers at Hughes Aircraft. We became very good friends through our "Golf Club". She was such a loyal & dedicated person in life's many endeavors. Being a UA "Wildcat" will always bring so many memories of our friendship & her infectious smile & laughter. I will always think of her delicious tamales she made for my family. My love and sympathy to all family & friends.

Anthony you made me cry

Dear Anthony,
By the stories and photos you've shared of your grandmother it sounds like she was a huge role model in your life. May her lessons and memories be remembered and passed on as you continue your life and even though she is gone physically, she is still with us spiritually. Your family, yourself, and close friends of Elodia Rosales Avila will be in my prayers.

I didn't know Mrs. Avila, but I went to high school with three of her grandchildren, I considered Daniel my best friend. All were strong intelligent and friendly to all. It was obvious they had excellent influences in their lives, and I am sure their grandmother was one of the biggest and best. Rest in peace Grandma Golfer

Hey Anthony,
I may not have met your grandmother, but from what you have told us about her, it appears to me that she was a wonderful woman! My condolences to you and your family! May God bless each and one of you! :)

Anthony, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Your Grandma is now watching over you from high above with a big smile and eternal love. She will always be with you through your many happy memories.

Grandma Avila, I never had the chance to meet you, but you have brought a wonderful family into this world. Rest in peace.

Just from the stories and ways the family always talked about her, I knew that Mrs. Avila was an amazing, brightly spirited person. I hope that the memories provide comfort and the friends and family, strength through this period of time, and especially today. -M

Dearest Eddie and Anthony and the Avila family, my heart aches with you as you grieve Ellie's departure from this earth. I am praying that your tender memories and the amazing comfort of our Lord Jesus will bring much peace. Praying for your family. Much love,
Laura
