Minerva;
Thoughts and prayers are sent to you and your family at this time. It is so very hard on the family when the good Lord calls one of his Angels home to be with him. I know the wonderful memories that you have of your mom will help you through this time of great sorrow.

Dear Father Luis and family,
we are sadden to hear of your mothers passing. My mother has some great memories of her. They both were seamstress and knew each other for many years. My mom is ill and feels sad that she can't be with you but she as well as our family want you to know that you are in our prayers and in our thoughts. God bless you may you find comfort in her memory.
