Mama, it's been 1 year and still so hard to believe you aren't here. You were blessed to avoid Corona Virus fiasco of 2020. It still seems like you were just here yesterday. God took you quickly - I don't know why. This year Sandy and I each got 1 dozen fake purple roses and gave to homeless ladies on mother's day who couldn't be with their kids. And Auntie Patti & Uncle Tony have been faithful to visit and put flowers on your grave. We love you just as much today as if you were here. ...

Here are some "Maria-isms" things mama always used to say:
Once I give something to God I let it go and I don't take it back from him, it's in His hands
Good morning, Sunshine
Every day I wake up I thank God for this precious breath of life He's given me
Good night, sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite!
Yah, RIGHT!!
