Not sure what to say?

I always felt so short next to Maria, it was nice to have someone reach for me!! I still miss her.

Still miss you and you are not forgotten.

I still think of some of the silly, funny things we did together. Like riding in my VW, it was a little cramp for Maria, we were like Mutt and Jeff. And drinking out of sippy cups. I do miss her.

For her family's sake and my own I am deeply sorry to have found that Maria has passed on, but I am happy to know as one who knew her back in college that she is no doubt with the Lord reaping the treasures she accrued in heaven through her numberless selfless works of love. When I became associated with the Baptist Student Union at USC Aiken in the mid 70's I met Maria and learned from some of the other members that she had some sort of special spiritual gift.

I was close to Maria when I was a little girl and she was always the kindest, most gentle person. She was a great example of a godly woman and I was blessed to have known her. I will always remember her great smile that could light up the room and how much fun I had with her.

I am rather at a loss for words. Maria and I were very good friends, I just found out. I had been out of town taking care my parents for some time. Maria and I did a christian weight class together. She was so willing to sign me up to read to her children, I always left crying.She had a most sweet heart, so loving. My youngest daughter loved her alot too. The family will be in my prayers. She was to young to go, but I know she is in the right place.

So sorry to hear about Maria, hate we were unaware earlier

Such sad news to hear today but what a kind, gentle, soft spoken lady. So glad she is in heaven rejoicing.
