Titi, You will always be remembered as a hard-working, humorous, talented and loving aunt, daughter, mother, sister and friend. Having you in my life was such a wonderful blessing; having you right upstairs made it that much better. I was able to "crash" at any time to see what was for dinner; we both know I never passed up your chuletas! From french braides (which I've never perfected) to girl scouts, we have always had our special time together. Your humorous witt kept everything the same throughout your battle. May you find peace, you will forever be missed. Until we meet again...I love you Titi

My Wonderful, sweet, funny and beautiful Aunt. You know I remember as if it was yesterday that you pulled me by my ear and sat me down in the living room because I was picking on my sister. You told me that I should respect my sister because she's the only one that I have and that the next time I bothered her or called her names that you would tell my Dad on me(and everyone in my family knows that ment a WHOOPING). I don't know if you ever knew this Tt Ana but that day changed my perspective on family values and made me realize how much I need my sister in my life and that putting family down was wrong(Even though you told him anyway & he still whooped me). We are supposed to be uplifting and caring to other's. Tt Ana, you taught me that Family comes first and I'll never forget that. I pray every day that God makes me the Man I need to be and I know now that you are with the Lord TT Ana that you will be proud of the love you see in my heart and in my life every day. The love I have for you is eternal & Tt You will be missed but until we meet again in the eternal life tt rest in paradise. love you ???

You were a wonderful Aunt and will truly be missed. From a young age you taught me a lot about resilience and strength. You were sole provider, an attentive Mom and still found time to indulge your nephews and nieces. Whether it was teaching us how to draw Garfield, braiding our hair or even making clothes for our stuffed animals. You were there to share in all our milestones and accomplishments. Even through your battle with MS, you were able to keep your feistiness and humor. You never complained and instead would comfort us with your jokes and humor. While my heart is heavy with your passing, I am grateful for the time and moments I was able to spend with you.
Until I see you again, My Beautiful Titi. ALL MY LOVE, Nidya
