Crystal Marie Apodaca

I love you Crystal my beautiful daughter as a sunflower,tall and beautiful..I miss you like only a mother can, with empty arms and a pain so deep, but I know one day we Will all be reunited...

C, give gma a kiss

My dear, sweet, goofy friend.....CAPPACCUINO IN THE GHETTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss you terribly, yet I know you are dancing up there with Jesus and having SUCH a good time.....so much better than you did down here. You'd love this little guy down here. His smile is the best (I don't get to see him, but I see the pictures). Send mom special "somethings" when you can. She misses you a lot.
I miss "Yo face sista".....sending hugs up there to you. I love you now and always~

I love mommy very much and I trust that one day I will see here again one-day however long or short the time separateing us may be thank you all for all the support that you have given me and my sister throughout these horrific times

Crystal,
I miss you more and more every day. I miss your laugh and the places we drove through. I miss your goofiness and the things you said that made everyone crack up. You put the fun in life when it was just a boring or regular day. Your sparkle and laughter lit up a room when you walked in, and life is dull now, and not the same. It's hard to go from day to day knowing you're watching us but not with us here where we can touch you. I want to grab your arm and crack jokes with you. I miss you so much and am so mad at the circumstances, but yet I know you are in the presence of Jesus, where you always wanted to be. Save me a place at the banquet table sista. I'll see you soon. I loved you when.....

My most heartfelt and deeply felt condolences you guys .... I'm am so very sorry to hear about Chrystal's death... As well as the manner in which was the cause.... You guys are in my thoughts and my prayers today ,as well as every other day too... My only regret about this day is the fact that, due to unfortunate financial curcumstances, I am unable to be there with you all to share in the grief you will be under and trying to help shoulder the majority of wut you feel and help take away some if not most of your pain by also helping you to over come wut I am able to so that all you would have at the end of this unfortunate day should be just how much Chrystal brought you just by being in the world and being the awsome, sweet, loving human being that anyone would have loved knowing even if they didn't know her well enough and say that they were happy to be able to call her Niece, Cousin, Wife, Mother, Grandmother, but most of all Daughter, Sister, and Friend too one and all who new her best ...
I love and miss you all and wish I could be there for you all today.... But mostly wish I could be there for my Cousin/ friend Chrystal Marie Cates (as that's how I will always remember her being)
R.I.P. Cousin you will surely always be missed by me and continue to be in my heart and in my thoughts and prayer .... May finally be at peace as she is reunited with her father and her brother as they help into the gates of heaven where she belongs ....

My condolences on your loss. Although words can not fully heal the pain death brings, may the thought at Hosea 13:14, where God promises to reverse the effects of death forever, bring a measure of comfort during this difficult time.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. Crystal will be greatly missed. We love y'all

You will be greatly missed! Watch over everyone. Your a sweet angel. Love you.

May God's loving kindness and comfort help you and your family through this very sad time Psalms 29:11
