Lourdes Leticia "Letty" Davison-Rios

Another year without you. It’s been two years, and I still catch myself reaching for the phone to call you, only to realize in that split second that I never can again.

Nana recently joined you in heaven this June, and while it’s been hard, there’s some comfort knowing you’re together now, both of you looking down on me.

I still struggle with the bitterness of seeing others celebrate milestones with their moms, knowing they get more time while mine was cut short. But...

Dear Mom,
Today marks one year since you’ve been gone. I wasn’t sure how I would make it to this day, but somehow I have. I hate that you’ve missed so much. Some days it feels like I’m losing you all over again. At times, I sense signs that you’re nearby, while other moments I convince myself you’re still here—I imagine coming home to find you in the car when Dad picks me up at the airport or seeing you in your bedroom with your morning coffee.

It hasn’t been easy for any of...

Rest in peace, Letty. My heart and prayers go out to you Eddie.

LETTY WAS CO-WORKER AT THE CITY OF SOUTH TUCSON IN THE LATE 70'S. SHE WAS A VERY CONSCIENCE PERSON WITH A VERY PROFESSIONAL AND CARING ATTITUDE TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE THAT SHE CAME INTO CONTACT. MAY THE ALMIGHTY GOD GREET HER WITH OPEN AS HE WELCOMES HER INTO HIS KINGDOM. REST IN ETERNAL PEACE MY DEAR FRIEND.

Dear Eddie and family, please accept my sincere condolences on the loss of your wife, mother and grandmother. May God Bless you all with many wonderful memories of her to give you strength and courage to face each day without her. My heartfelt sympathies to you all.

I have not seen Letty since I retired from T.U.S.D high school administration nine years ago, but have thought of her often. I will never forget our Monday morning curriculum meetings at Tucson High when we would not only plan for creative and meaningful programs and events, but had lots of fun and laughs together as well. Letty was awesome at everything she did. She took the reigns of Magnet Coordinator at Tucson High and literally ran with it. She was dedicated, creative, caring, and...

We are so sorry for your family's loss. Sending your family hugs and prayers during a difficult time. Love, Tran Family

Nelson Mandela said, "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others." Letty made a positive difference in the lives of hundreds of Tucson High students, both in Exceptional Education as Job Developer and Transition Specialist and in regular education as Tucson High´s Magnet Coordinator. Her influence on the Tucson High community and Tucson in general spans decades. Her place in the Tucson High Hall of Fame is well...

Dear Eddie, Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God Bless and carry you through this most difficult time. Bob and Terri Gastellum
