It is with great sadness that we learned of your Mother's death. She was a dear friend to my Mother, Matilde Rodriguez and remember fondly our visits with your family in Fresno when we were younger and would go in from San Joaquin. I'm Maria Rodriguez, one of Matilde's daughter's and would very much like to attend Raquel's Life Celebration. Where will it be held? Please send an email to [email protected].

May your Mother forever rest in peace. She was very close to my Mother but unfortunately we cannot share her passing because of her present condition. My Mom turned 91 on March 13th and I believe she and Raquel shared the same birth date.

With all our sympathy and love,

The Rodriguez Family.
