I did'nt know Reyna but I do know what it is like to lose a loved one. My miracle baby past away on 2/12 and words cannot express the loss you are feeling. Just know that your loved one will always remain in your heart and that she is in the arms of the lord. May God bless the entire family. My condolences go out to you.

May your always remember her sparkle in her eye when she smiled, the way she twirled her hair when she was nervous. The spirit in her laughter and angel in heart that is now in yours. My deepest sympathy to her family and sons. May your new guardian angel guide you and keep you in her loving arms.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

I'll remember Reyna's beautiful smile. I worked with her when she was a participant in a Quad County Urban League program. She was a resilient person who set a great example of achievement despite the setbacks she experienced. I always enjoyed hearing from her, and I'll miss her.

A mothers gift is to give life. And if she truly lives, she will give real life to the world, not only in her children's bodies, but in their souls.
