Hortensia Baez Boutross

I was given my middle of Hortensia because of her. As a young girl I always thought my aunt was a movie star because she was so beautiful. She was kind, sweet and I remember very soft spoken. One of my memory of her was when we arrived from Cuba. I was 6 years old and didn’t know what Halloween was. She took me to her closet and let me pick earrings and a necklace to wear, alone with a skirt she found for me. I was in heaven. Tia you are missed along with my father, your brother Jorge. He...

My Aunt Hortensia was a very kind and sweet aunt to me and my siblings , When we would travel with my parents, “ Her Brother JORGE” And my Mom Nelsa we would stay at her house while I was growing I remember her always giving up her master bedroom to my parents insisting they sleep there and feel comfortable, We always felt welcomed and cared by her when we visited As well as by her husband Uncle Farris And my cousins Mary, Anne and Joseph. She will always be remembered by her kind nature...

I will always have fond memories of being Hortenses next door neighbor and friend for many years. We both spent a lot of time working in our big, beautiful and peaceful backyards, as well as loving and caring for all the cats and other wild critters in our lives. Hortense was always so kind and motherly towards me, and we both helped and looked out for one another. My prayers go out to the whole family with the loss of your mother/grandmother.

Dear Annemarie and Mary, I was so sorry to see the notice of your mother's passing. She had a very long life on this earth and we know she overjoyed at being reunited with your father again. God bless you, Joseph and your families at this time of separation. Love to you all,
