To the family of Ramon and Margaret Ledesma.
I was saddened to hear about the passing of your Mom. I used to help your Mom and Dad at GECU. Your parents would always bring Buddy when they came to the credit union. I remember Buddy liked to bowl. Your Mom and Dad would tell me about their family and how proud they were of their children and grandchildren.
At Christmas, your Mom would bring me Christmas cookies and a pineapple upside down cake. She was such a good baker. She was so sweet and loving. I always enjoyed visiting with her. I hope and pray Buddy is
happy and doing well. Your Mom is with the angels now and reunited with your Dad. God Bless The Ledesma family.

Margaret, you were so good to me, I was heartbroken to learn of your passing I have offered my masses and holy communions for you. You will always be in my heart. I know that God will be merciful and take you straight to heaven as you deserve. You were the best wife and mother.
Of course my aunt.

Love you with all my heart,
