Grandma, it still feels unreal, like I should still be going to the hospital to visit you. You were one of the best people I've ever known and probably will ever know in my entire life. I'm so thankful to have had you in my life for this long. We're looking after Grandpa for you. He says he misses his hunny <3 We all love you and miss you SO much! I'm just glad you're not suffering anymore, and that you're finally with mom again. RIP <3

Margie you were my big sister, best friend and our mother hen. We always look to you for guidance and advice. You inspire me by your kindness and the way you always treated others. If someone said something negative about someone you always said god bless them never talking negative about anyone. You truly walked the talk of a christian woman. I will miss your smile, laugh and all the stories you use to tell us of your youth and how you met frank and how you danced the peppermint twist by joey dee and the star lighters with frank and how you knew he was the man for you. You touch many lives by your kindness and will be sadly missed. My heart is broken and I know this is a wound that will never heal. A part of me has died when i lost you my beloved sister. Now you are wrapped in the arms of Jesus with no more pain no more suffering. Frank my beautiful brother in law my heart goes out to you and to alica,angela,carlos frankie and all your grandchildren. This is only a temporary parting as we shall all meet again with the glory of all the saints angels and our lord Jesus christ. So long margie i love you and will never stop missing you. Today was such a windy day as the angels were spreading their wings to lift you up to the golden gates of heaven. Rest in Peace our Doris Day. love you Malena your baby sister.xxoo

My aunt Margie gave me a lifetime of beautiful memories…I remember always looking forward to going over her and Uncle Franks' home. I always felt as if I was one of your own children; I would play with my cousins and stay overnight. My cousin Margarita and I would stay up late laughing and telling secrets trying not to make noise, Aunt Margie would just smile and say “OK girls”, and she would just let us just be girls and always made me feel like I was special. Remember Aunt Margie making my favorite oatmeal, spaghetti and her famous rolls and cornbread. Margie, you are in every memory I have growing up, birthday parties at grandmas, dancing to your favorite 50's music at every main event, you going to garage sales with my mom and me seeing you every week grocery shopping at TOPS with uncle Frank. You were so blessed to have Uncle Frank as your soul mate, he is a wonderful, devoted spouse, I remember you telling me that I am lucky to have the same in Ed, you never steered me in the wrong direction, God Bless you, I miss you Margie.
Margie always had a smile for us even when she was not well, her strength and hope is an inspiration. Margie would always worry about everyone even when she was going through so much pain and suffering, she would just smile through her pain asking if things were well with me and tell me she loved me. I always felt your love Aunt Margie. Thank you for being a part of my life; I am a better person because you touched my heart and soul. You are in heaven now with Margarita, grandma and grandpa and with my father as well. I am blessed to have so many angels looking after me and my family but the profound sadness still runs deep…

To Our friends the Maymi's...may you know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Your mother was a peaceful and beautiful woman who brought comfort to everyone around her. I will always remember how she stayed with our family at our dad's wake 27 years ago and supported us so kindly...her presence alone brought great comfort. She was funny and sweet and raised amazing kids...I miss Margarita all the time and often visit her at Holy Cross. I hope you find comfort in knowing that mother and daughter are together watching over you all. God Bless and thank heaven for giving us such great moms!

It's the little things, the small, everyday occurrences that you'll remember. The laughs, the stories, the smiles. And even though it seems like you can never recover from your loss, it is these very memories that will help push the pain away and bring back the smiles.

May my poem of loss
Be filled with Compassion,
Bring to your heart
Peace in some fashion.
Your loss is great,
It can't be denied,
But life unfolds
On a path less wide.
Never the same
With your loved one gone.
The pain must be faced,
The work of grieving done.
But a life can be made
Again, though a price is paid
Of a vacant chair
And an empty bed.
Keep the memories strong,
As you journey along.
You, too can help those
Struggling through woes.
Be at peace,
As life onward flows.

Frederick Lee, B.A.

To My Sweet Beautiful Mother who is now a Dancing Angel in Heaven with her dear sweet daughter who we lost 6 yrs ago, Margarita...U are the reason I am the woman I am today, you have taught us to have morals and to be kind to others and you always said no one is better than you and u are better than no one, treat people equally. I miss you SOOOO much already, I CANT EVEN BEGIN TO IMAGINE MY LIFE WITHOUT YOU, I WILL FOREVER KEEP YOUR MEMORY ALIVE, and make sure my kids know what a wonderful mother, grandmother and role model you were and I hope and pray I can only be half the mother you were to us. WE WERE ALL BLESSED to have you as our mother and there is not 1 thing I would have changed differently. Please know we are all going to look after Pop too, you were his soulmate and if I have to go over there and hold his hand while he watches Dancing With the Stars, or American Idol I will do that :) until we meet again Mom you will FOREVER be in ALL of our HEARTS!! THANK U everyone for all the prayers and kind words to get us thru this very difficult time!
