Bless Mrs. Rios heart - and the entire Rios family. We were next door neighbors in Thousand Oaks and I remember fondly our mothers chatting over black coffee at the mailbox. May Mrs. Rios Rest In Peace. And may her memory be a blessing. Love to Mr. Rios and the whole Rios tribe.❤

I was blessed to be one of the kids who hung out at the Rios house. I will never forget the day I crashed my mom’s car, my parents were out of town. My sister Jeanette and I were taken home to the Rios house where we got to relax in the hot tub and enjoy a wonderful meal together. I will never forget the her kindness.

I did not have the honour of meeting Mrs Rios. I know of her light from her beloved son Rob.
For a number of years, I have looked forward to tales big and small about his beloved mother's antics: some hilarious, some not so much but all with so much love and kindness that these tiny snippets of daily life were like a lovely blanket or soothing balm.

Thank you Mrs Rios for your shining light and a life so well lived. Your love crossed boundaries and later, reached many of us...

My husband and I knew Geri from St. Clair's Catholic Church in Three Rivers. When we first joined the community she immediately helped us to feel kindness and comfortable in our new parish by choice. I loved her honesty about any topic that came up. She spoke of her family with love and proudness, which we admired. God Rest Her Soul. She will be missed. Ed and Patty Carroll
