I'm so sorry to learn of Cecilia's passing. We shared many laughs at Mother Aetna. Cecilia was the sweetest. God Speed, Dear Cecilia.

CC was one of the first people I met at Aetna in 1990 and she became a mentor and fiend to me right away. It was like having my mom/big sister watching out for me at work. Then we decided to car pool to work together with 2 other ladies and we laughed all the way to work and all the way home, every day. Imagine my good fortune when my brother married into the family and I got to see CC at family get togethers and holidays. She was a wonderful person, so smart and so loving and so proud of her family - she talked about them all the time. Nicky and the boys..I felt I knew them long before I met them. We will miss you so much Cecilia (we called her CC at work).
All my love to Nick and George, Michelle, Olivia and all the kids and grandkids. I am so sorry for your great loss.

Nicky and sons,
I'm remembering with fondness your wonderful Cecilia, your boys and all the Agueros of being a brief member of the family during my marriage to Modesto. The kindness and friendship that Cecelia gave me will always be remembered. Please know I am thinking of you and hope you will find comfort in all the memories. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Minha sincera simpatia para com Alfonso familia. Em tempos difíceis como esses, tirei as provas das escrituras no versículo da Bíblia, como Atos 24: 15, "e o último inimigo, a morte, deve ser trazido a nada". Essas escrituras me dão conforto sabendo que há um futuro para os nossos amados queridos perdidos na morte pode ser reconfortante.

Such a kind, generous and thoughtful person, who along with her husband Nicky raised such a beautiful family. She was the matriarch and will be missed very much, but will never be forgotten.

I am so sad. My thoughts and prayers are with the Alfonso family.

With much love,

Jennifer/Lola

Much love, Jane
