19 yrs later and we are still keeping your memory alive. I am now getting very close to age you were when you passed. You would be so proud of all your kids. Oh what a life I've lived with so many memories, accomplishments and blessings.
You've become the inspiration for most of the music I've made.
I've felt your music presence and your light in some of my darkest times growing up. I am so very proud of the mother you were to us, but more proud of everyone having so many great things to say about who you were to them. I hope you are resting knowing you will never be forgotten. Your impact on everyone you knew has been carried over all these years. You have changed lives and those lives changed the lives of others because of the love, kindness and words of wisdom you shared.
I promise you we will all be okay and your story will be told. You are everywhere we are and we are living.
I love you and miss you Mom.
Love always, Unique

In loving memory of a dearly cherished and undeniably remarkable individual. Though we never crossed paths, your presence touched me through your daughter's music. It's a testament to your impact that I find myself mourning someone I never met. The world feels emptier without your light. My heartfelt prayers go out to your loved ones. May they find solace in each other's embrace, and may you all reunite in joy one day.

Last Call ...
Sophia was the essence of style,
You could always count on her for a smile ...
Never a bad word to utter, even if she were angry with her sister or mother ..
A complement usually left her lips, Never a negative about my big hips... :-)
She'd give me make-up tips or lend me a dress, always schooling me on how to impress ...
She found beauty in everyone ...
& let us know she loved her daughter and son ...
She also loved music, a Power Drive and Cascabel fan ...
When I hear "ay Mamita' I can picture her jam ...
We shared love stories & stories of sorrow ... Never thinking there'd be no tomorrow ...
So let that be a lesson to everyone here, Tomorrow's not promised, hold your loved one's near ...
We all miss her & that's no doubt, I know she's reading this & is happy with the turn out ...
Like a butterfly, she fluttered in and out of our lives & is still on the minds of us all ...
We'll see her again at our Life's
Last Call ...

FiFi,
On this Memorial Day I am thinking of you and I know you are watching over us, you work OT on watching me! :-) I called your fav cousin Henry and thanked him for staying in the Navy 17 years to help make our world safe for us to live free. It takes a lot to stay in the military that long, and I am proud of him and all his accomplishments as you were, he is a Chief! Yes, this wacky Yacqui has a real Chief for a son, Chief Henry Flores. You always let him know that you loved him, no matter what, he misses you like I do. Every day I think of you, and I thank you for looking out for me and all our family. Baby Doll, you are the butterfly who has been set free and someday we will soar the skys together, watching over our Grandchildren and their's ... missing you and wishing things were different ... Tia Alicia

Hey SIS, as you can see and hear you are loved and missed by many. I bet you never thought you touched so many people. I remember you used to ask me "Lib how do you do it? You and Vince?" I would tell you it takes 2 people to share everything and make it happen.I nowthats what you always wanted and I wish you could've. But,as I read and look at this book you had more!! I know I teased and joked but, you are always going to be my FiFi,Babydoll,left on the door step lil sister. I miss you more than anyone can imagine. Always in my HEART,THOUGHT AND PRAYERS. Until our chain is connected again.
Love you SIS

My Beautiful Prima,
I love and miss you dearly.
I thank you for the wonderful memories you've given me. I treasure those memories to make me a stronger person just like you were. I miss so many things about you. We'd sit around and tell stories about growing up. Yeah,remember I'd call you 'My Gringa Cousin' you would just laugh and I could still see that ear to ear smile.
You once told me, "No regets, live your life for you and your family." I know you did as well, that's why you touched so many people.
The love you had for your children was so strong that you will continue to work from up above. Your bright smile is now shining in the sky. Until we meet again. I love you MUCHO!
Besos y Abrazos

It's just as hard today as it was the very day you were taken away from us. You were my best cousin but more like a big sister and best friend. I miss your honesty, your electric personality and most of all conversation. I'm glad to see the kids are all doing well and they posess the integrity and confidence you inflicted. Your always in my dreams, my prayers, and everyday thoughts and always will be. I love you, your cousin Veronica. Mmua

Sophia,
It's over a year now since you were taken from us and it's still so hard for me. I miss you so much. I miss your goofy jokes and your beautiful movie star smile. We had so much fun together over the years! Thank you for always being there for me; for listening to me when I needed to talk, for holding me when I needed to cry, and for never judging me when I would mess up. Thank you for being the best friend anyone could have. Thank you for believing in me and keeping me strong, especially when I couldn't do it for myself. I'm a better person and a stronger woman for having you in my life. I cherish the memories of the time we had together and keep them close in my heart. I know we will be together again some day; until then I pray for you, your kids, your family and all of us that love and miss you dearly. I can't say good bye to you Sophia, so I'm just going to say, "I'll bring the sangria!"

" Who knew that morning that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone; for part of us went with you the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, and though we cannot see you, you are always by our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again."
LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU MORE!!!

Sophia,
Where do I even begin. I have just started to read some of my daughter's Guest Book Entries. (JASMINE GALLEGOS)And as I was reading I came across the wonderful words you wrote on April 4, 2006. Thank you so much for your kind and wonderful words. The day of my daughters funeral April 10, 2006 which was my daughters birthday and mine (she was my birthday present from GOD). That day so very hard for me I had to give my Baby Girl back to God and after the services later on that evening is when I had found out what had happen to you. I was so very agry that someone could do such cruel thing. We hadnt seen each other in awhile but when ever we did you always had a beautiful smile and kind words to say. I was so sadden that your family had to go threw this and still does. It is so hard somedays when our loved ones are taken from us. I want to ask you for a favior... you said in your entry Love, prayers, and very tight hugs... could you please give my Jazzy and very tight hug and kiss her for me? I miss that so very much Sophia as I know your kids do too from you. To the Nunez family have faith in the Lord for He is the only one Who can help us all threw these time of loses. May God Bless your Family with much strength and Love from your Mother.
Thank you so much rest in paridise

Sophia,
It's been a while since you've been gone but we miss you just as much. Elizabeth always talks about you and reminesses about your adventures. Thanks to you, I now have a great life and family. I wish there were more people in the world like you. Everytime I sit on the computer I see your smiling face and laugh to myself, remembering all the good times we all shared. Elizabeth knows your still watching everyone and I think that puts her at ease. We will all be together again one day and share the good times once again. You will never be forgotten. We love and miss you very much.

OH, My Beautiful CuzN,
Our family was so blessed with so many wonderful memories with you. Your smile, laughter and wink,wink ;) were so contagious. Thanks for not being jugdemental but instead making those you came in contact with feel so special.
You're so super special to me. It was your advice that has lead me to my current happiness in life. Remember you said, "Give the poor white boy a chance" and so I did. Here we are 11 years later with beautiful children and a loving relationship. We know that we're together because of you, playing cupid. Now, you get to be an angel from above. I'm sure you'll still bring people together in your own way. I love you MUCHO, MUCHO!
Your prima, Elizabeth

I just wanted to tell you how much you are missed every day. I miss your positive attitude at work and miss telling stories about our kids. I'm still with Qwest but QA is gone now. It was just too hard to work in QA knowing you were not there! Your mom is a wonderful person so I see where you got it from. I feel this book has kept me close to you so its sad to see it go but I will always think of you. Thank you for being my friend! I only hope that we would have had more time together as well.

Hi Sophia!
I'm Here like always thinking of you and like always missing you. I laugh to myself about all the fun times we had and I get sad from the not so good times we had. I always tell myself I wish I could of made it happier for you... Now the only way I can is through our kids, I hope your proud of the way I'm parenting so far. I think about all the times I used to watch you parent our kids and I try to do the same things that you used to do. I just hope I'm at least half the parent you were. The kids are growing up so fast and even though your with us in spirit, especially them, it breaks my heart knowing your not here in body enjoying them and hugging them. They need your motherly love Sophia and thats something not even I can give them. Unique is going through a time of her life where its very emotional for her babe let her know you her with her and Gilbert too. They love you so much, we all do! I will see you at the cementary later! I love you with all my heart,

Hello Cousin,
Liz just showed me this guest book, I wish I would have written you sooner, but I hope you have heard all my prayers and helped to wipe all my tears. I have so many great memories of you, Libby, Liz, and me.

Hey Sis,
I felt you and heard you on Tuesday when we were all at the cemetery..you were like Lib stop smoking..lol At first I looked around but, everyone was off to the side and not where I was. At first I did't want to beleive it was you. But, then i felt this presence and heard you laugh and I threw my cigarette down and walked back to where evryone was. I didn't say anything but, damn you could've just said hi or I miss you!lol I miss you so much we had so, so many good times and of course we fought just like sisters do. But, that never ever changed the fact the we are sisters. You took my secrets with you and I'll forever keep yours! (You know the ones)Please visit me as much as you want...just don't scare me.(ya right)huh! we all had a good time visiting you and it was a beautiful day. Everyone did as I asked and made it a day of rejoicing instead of sorrow. I know that's what you would've wanted.
If butterflies could fly to heaven..They would bring my love to you and your right back to me...I will wish for that everyday. Keep smiling for us and watching over us.
Love you and miss you so much!!

Mija,
Father Peacock, could not open the church, he had eye surgury, the day before, and had complications, so the church part did not come about, but there was a great turn out. We all went to the cemertary, after, and alot of people, spoke, you know little stories, poems. It was a good healing process, for all. But it still does not change the fact that you'r not here, with us. I know Nikki misses you deeply. Your advise to her, & of course shopping, together. Krystal trying to be there, not take your place, just trying to do her best, and doing a great job, you would be proud of her.your GrandSon, Christian is a handful, but so beatiful, were just doing it, day by day, love you, miss you more. You are our Sorrow & our Joy, there's love in every Tear. Just know our Love goes, deep & strong..We'll forget never..Yet will have forever..
Love you forever..

Wassup MOM.... dang I cant believe its the one year anniversary of you passing no one can. Its crazy seeing how life and people go on even after your gone. Theres times when Im home alone I yell out mom just to see if you answer back and when you dont..im dissapointed and it makes me weird to say it again out loud because im so caught up in talkin to you just in my head. People say so many good things about you that I think "wow I wanna be just like you" but the fact is no one can replace you but ill do my best to make you proud. I know it sounds funny because you are my mom but I wish I would have gotten to known you better like everything. Well I hope you come visit me you must know im a chicken so dont scare me and give me a heart attack.
love you... unique
ps. Dreams that you have can be achieved when you truly believe in your heart... even in heaven.

Sophia,
I can't believe tomorrow will mark 1 year since you were taken from us. I still to this day cannot believe it. I pretend that your just busy and don't have the time. Then , I'll pick up the phone and I releaize I can't call you. So then, I pray and talk to you. Sometimes I think I hear you answer or I'll get this little feeling that your with me and that really helps. So know that.....
"If Tears Could Build A Stairway And Memories A Lane. I'd Walk Right UP To Heaven And Bring You Home Again!"
I love and miss you, so much!

Hello Beautiful Cuz'N,
I can't believe it's almost a year. I know we've gone longer not talking but when we did speak again, we always picked up from where we left off, as if we spoke everyday. Now, I do speak to you everyday only I don't get to hear your voice. I miss your laughter but most of all I miss your inspiring words of encouragement.
I will not be able to make it to the 1 yr. anniversary but know that I will be thinking of you, as I always do. I pray all the time that our family remains strong. Love Ya Lots, your PRIMA

Mom amd Grandma visited you yesterday. Did you hear them. The kiddos are getting so big. Mom and I took Nikki Prom dress shopping OMG you were not kidding when you said she was really picky.You need to find away to help us out. She's a beautiful young woman I wish that she would just understand that. It would make it a whole lot easier. For all of us. But,hey we'll manage. Well, it's so hard for me to imagine you gone, so I just tell myself that your really busy and just haven't found the time to call, and then I call one of the girls. Sometimes I get them sometimes I don't. Please come see me soon!!
Love ya and miss ya!!

Well its been a while. You know I think about you alot. I work right across the street from Qwest, and think about how many times we would have been able to have lunch together. I miss you, we all miss you, but you already know that. I remember little different things that you would tell me and I keep them close to my heart. Well I can't wait to see you again.

Hey SIS, I know it's been awhile but, just wanted to say I MISS YOU so much no word can describe. We had a fundraiser on Sunday to raise money for your head stone. we raised almost enough to cover it. It will the most beautiful bench with inscriptions from all of us and a pic of your beautiful face. I hope you love it. I also wanted to say to keep Jaime close to you and help him find comfort he's probably wondering what happened to him. Let him know we'll watch over his children as our own. Were also looking out for yours. You are so missed and it hurts so much not to see or hear your FIFI voice. I still have one of your voice mails and it really gets me. But, thats what keeps me going as well.
I Love you SIS and until we see each other again my heart will not be full.
Love you always,
your SIS!

Sophia's Family,
After hearing the news that the person responsible for taking sophia's life was caught, answered our prayers. Although the saddness in your heart will never fully be comforted know that through faith,family and friends you have a shoulder to lean on. Sophia became a big part of our lives at an early age,even though their wasn't a daily phone call she was always there for the important things. Like being my Maid of Honer,kids B-Day parties and simple catching-up phone calls. I hope she knew the important role she had in my life. Our lives get so "busy" we take for granted the simple catching-up phone calls that I wish I could have back.

Sophia,
Hey sweetie, I am so sorry that I haven't written to you. I find it hard to believe that you are really gone. I miss you so much. Hey do you remember the time when I was little and I went cruisin with you and Libby, you put a bunch of make up on me remember? When we got back home my dad was Furius! Remember? You told me that you didn't understand why he got so mad just because I went for a ride with you guys. We had fun that night huh? I wish I would have called more and talked with you more, and spent more time with you. I miss you so much. I love you and I cannot wait to see you again.

Gee, we missed you on Thanksgiving..Your gobble, gobbling in everyone ear. specially,
when our plates are too full.. Gobble Gobble.
Your Grand Ma, didn't want Ham, because you always, brought it.. She missed you too..
Lit Gil was looking sharp. Looks just like you.
And Nikki, she so beauiful, a cross, between, big Gil, & You Sophia.. She's a heart breaker, like Mondo would say..
Krystal & Michael,& Lit Christian are doing good. He's a beautful Boy.
Before I left to your Grandma's house 11/23, I had a drink, with you, like we used too. Eggnog, & Rum.. Poured a tall one, half for me, the rest, for you...miss you too much..
Till we are together again. laughing, reminiscing. My heart is so heavy just wating for that day..
But I feel you at my house, feel your warmth, & always telling me to keep my head up, chin up, Mom..
You are everone's lost, not just mine...Love you My Sophia

I have no words to describe the way I feel. You and I were truly meant to be best friends, but for reasons that I'm afraid I'll never know someone took that. Meeting you made me like Arizona! You would be so proud of your beautiful daughters, and your "little man", they are really special, esp. Nikki, I love her and feel closer to you when she's around. Daniella dreams of you all the time, you were so kind to her and she'll never forget that. Losing you was a great loss for many people. I wish I could talk to you about so many things. I will always wish you were here my friend. And remember a heart is not judged by how much it loves, but how much it is loved by others. How true that is, you will always be missed.

hey mom its me nicky wow everything has been weird. Dads doing good with us he's trying real hard to give us what we need. But unfortunatley he cant give us what we miss (you). Everyone misses you and thats all they talk about. We should try saying what they miss about you like inside memories that they just crack up at. I like hearing those. I remember one time I was in my room dancing and singing my lungs out. I had no idea you were standing there watching me the whole time cracking up!!!That was so funny....i know we wont ever forget that.
Im going to make something of myself. Maybe no one can see it yet but i know you do. I know you can see the ambition i have for my dreams. People will no you and if they dont they'll learn about you.
LOve always

HEY SIS!!
It's getting close to 180 day mark. It only seems like yesterday to me. I went by your house and it stand alone no kids no Sophia and I felt that so much. I know people say your in a better place but, I can't help but be selfish and say your better place is here. I miss you so much and wish I could ust talk to you once more. Not in my dreams or at your resting place. But to you! I seen Lil Gil this weekend he looks really good. I haven't really seen the gilrs but,we've talk and texed. They seem to be hanging in there. Mom is holdong on I know it's extremely hard for her but, she's strong. Johnny,well he's a little harder for me to read. He seems ok but, then there are times well you know. Me,well Sophia you know me.Stubborn and not giving in to anything but, you this...I miss you dearly and I really regret that I took our time for granted. Just know I love and miss our time and the way we could call each other and vent!!!
PLease save a place for me by you and will have our sister talks then.

To all of Sophia's family... I found out last night about this tragedy that has befallen your family. I worked with Sophia at Qwest in the WINBACK center for a little over a year, and have since married and moved to Florida. She was one of my favorite people there, and wonderful to work with. We would talk about everything and like me she loved SHOES! She was a beautiful, cheerful and fun person to be around. Anyone who knew her knew how dedicated she was as a Mother. I am heart sick and saddened deeply for this loss to you and her children. May God protect and keep your family in His care.
