Kina was a giving,caring,loving,kind and fun person to know.She always opened her door to me and my friends,regardless of the circumstances!!!Even in my drunken stoops,she welcomed me.In 1981 I was in a car accident,she took me in and cared for me...I'll never forget that!!I have fond memories of her through the years.I couldn't of asked for a better aunt and friend.I remember sharing laughter with her,over her chewing lettuce with no teeth!!!Kina was known for always wanting to feed you ,when you visited.The enchiladas her and cindy made for us last year were"The Bomb".Even through her illness,She was always agreat hostess!!! Her memories will live on in each of our hearts forever. Frank,Cindy,Elisa,Able,Ronald,Donald&Families May god sustain and bless ya'll through this difficult time.

Cindy, Licha, & Dutchover boys:
We were so sorry to hear about Ptricia's passing. we are also so sorry that we couoldn't be there with you all at this time of sorrow, but know that we are there in Spirit & you all are in my prayers. You know, Cindy, we go way back, & I still have many memories of "Pat" when she used to go shopping at Everybody's that I would sack her groceries & we would talk for quite awhile. That she did, leave us alot of memories. When we used to go visit when we were all kids. How time flies. I really also appreciate that you were there for us during dad's passing. That meant alot to us. Just know that "Patricia" is no longer suffering & is walkind hand in hand with our Lord & Savior. What a consoling thought. She is probably also joking with dad right now. Dad used to say things to your mom just to annoy her, especially when he would run into her at the store. "Again, Patricia? He would tell her. They have left us with many memories. Just know that you all are in my prayers & in our thoughts at this time. Once again, Sorry we were not able to be there.
