Titi Manny,
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord.
Your Niece, Gloria

Titi Manny,
May you rest eternally in peace. Now you are among the rest of the family who have gone before us. We all will walk down this path and onto a more glorious afterlife. God bless you always. Your nephew - Ruben Hernandez
