I screamed and my girlfriend Sandy, Heather and Nina came into my office and started asking me all I could say is my Lurina is dead Sandy being my best friend took the phone, I told her I have to call her dad Sandy said Dee give me Jeff’s number, I was out side the office at Nina’s desk and she said Dee who do we have to call, Nina called our daughter in California, Nick was standing there and I was on the phone again asking what happened not understanding or hearing a word through my heart breaking and tears falling he took the call I kept saying please don’t let them touch her please tell them don’t touch her, Nick took down the information as to what happened and the address where we needed to go the girls put together all my things and they drove me home.

With tears falling and saying this is not possible, this can’t be happening please tell me this is not happening, all I could think about was I just talked to her, there is no way she is dead then I looked at my cellphone and a call was coming in and I said see Sandy she is calling me, she isn’t dead, Sandy said Dee give me your phone please, I said see they made a mistake she’s calling me I answer the phone and said Rina it’s you are you ok there was no answer back Sandy said Dee please give me the phone, I handed the phone to her and there were so many things rushing through my mind and so many calls to make to my mom, sister and her biological father. All this was going on in my mind as I stayed crying non stop all the way to my home. When we arrived Sandy, Heather and Nina all made the calls as I started calling airlines to get to Colorado, see thats where our daughter Lurina lived in Glenwood Springs Colorado, I made a call to my Auntie Marie and Uncle Benny and told them what happened and my poor Auntie Rere said deedee she was just her visiting us are you sure, I said yes crying and my heart breaking more and more.

So it was hard for me to sleep last night, since I know what today is. Today is the last day we would ever hear your voice, your laughter hear your smile through the phone as you were talking to dad and telling him about this funny thing you saw on the internet. You were on your way to the kids and you said you would skype with me and send a video. The last time we talked you were laughing with dad and then you said I love you to both of us and said you will call us later on. Then never, never came, I tried calling you multiple times and you girls know the rule of not calling past 9 PM, so I tried calling you and you never answered the phone and left you messages, I was awoke with the felling of suffocation and couldn’t breathe, your dad did as well.

I did my morning call to you and no answer, I tried all the way to work and it went to voicemail but it was full and I couldn’t leave a message, I tried again at work but still no message, the box was full, I waited to see if you were going to call me at lunch time, and that to came and went with no contact from you.

It was 4:30 when a call came in and my girlfriend Sandy answered it, she came in to my office and said Dee there is someone on the phone asking for Beanie Wickham, I looked at her puzzled because no one except my girls and husband call me that. I told her to put the call into my office and it was a detective Rusty Slater, he asked my name and I said how did you get this name my girls only know it, he said Ma’am I sorry to inform you but your daughter has pasted away, I said which one I have four, he said it’s your daughter Lurina Rios, I kindly replied no you must be mistaken I just spoke to her she’s not dead we talk yesterday she was to call us and she didn’t, he asked when was the las time we spoke and I told him it was on our way home at 6:30 PM she was talking with her dad and I. I said she’s not dead I know she’s not dead,

Mama Love you forever and ever my little love

So today is your birthday and at 12:01 I wished you Happy Birthday, you would be 36 years old today and oh how I miss you so much, I want you to know this, there will never be a first love for me ever again you are and always will me my first true love. I have no idea what you would be doing today the one thing I do know is that your kids would have pampered you and you more than likely would have stayed in bed all day, sitting there with your laptop playing game FaceTiming us then going out to dinner with the kids and just being you. Your heart was always open to everyone and everything is miss you my heart misses you every day, Rina there isnt a day that goes by that I dont think about you or miss you. I truly wish we could trade places or even turn back time, I would do anything to have you here today just so you could be with your kids, sometimes I fear they will never have to touch of what kind of mother you were, they dont have those memories that we have, since they were so young when you passed. Im so sorry my love I miss you so much spend your day with Nana and tell her I love and miss her so much, I hope to see you soon my love. HAPPY BIRTHDAY LITTLE ONE. Love always Mama

Hey My Love its Mama, I was just thinking about you and how much I love and miss you, Christmas and New Years has come and gone and the pain still doesnt get any easier. It feels prolonged more tan any pain Ive ever endured, I would rather be with you ten here. I often get upset and angry and sometime dont understand why things are so hard sometimes, I tend to over analyze things I know that I miss you and the kids really miss you so much especially Daniel, hes dealing with things the only way he knows how I just love him so much I want him to achieve every goal he has no matter what he decides to do in life I will do the same as with you girls, and say the same as I told you once upon a time, this is the phrase: You are old enough to know the difference between Right and Wrong and everything you do in life will be your choice, as long as you can live with the choices you make which I know will be Great ones I will support you no matter what you choose. Youre strong you have great values and know what honestly, integrity and compassion relate to your amazing and I love you no matter what, we do not lie, cheat or steal, we see the good in people and treat them as we wish to be treated, our kindness and compassion along with great family values over weighs everything our love for humanity and people were our strong points. We just trust until others show otherwise, We are here and We will live with our values. I love you little one I miss you so much and I wish you were hear with us now just to here you laugh one more time, just once I will see you in my dream my love, see you tomorrow, tell nana I miss her.

So my love, weve made it through the most heartache of heartaches and just one more to get through, you would be happy I celebrated Christmas and Hanukkah yet I could not stay awake until midnight yet another yet I was unable to stay awake with 22 minutes to go. It was funny dad stayed awake and then fell asleep downstairs, me on the other had fell fast asleep snuggled in my bed with my pillow and blankets. I miss you so much my love so much, the kids are so happy and their dad is home with them and they have the one thing theyve been missing which we both know is complete love of their parents, you and him they have the complete package the best Christmas and New Years present any child could wish for they have and he is so wonderful and full of spirt like no other I have ever met or come across in my lifetime, great things are to come as well as the sad which makes us who we are in this life. We are strong and spiritual with faith that spreads from coast to coast and one day my love I will be by your side and watch the wonderful things to come from what was created by GOD. Happy New year my love my first true love always.....Love Mama

Morning my love its the start of Hanukkah we miss you so much I wish you were here the kids are no longer babies, but little people Mikeys home now and its wonderful to have him back, hes spending his time with the kids and found out how they all look like you. I put together a photo book for him and kids of pictures of you and they love looking at it. I wish you were here instead of me I wish it all the time. I love you so much and miss you so much and want you to know even though you already do that my promise was kept. I want you to know that there is nothing more important to me then our family. I love you my little one love you forever.

So My love you have two guest books one is on legacy.com and the other is on Dignity.com, it is so confusing. Yesterday was Daniels 15th birthday and I called first thing thinking that I would still be the first to say happy birthday but, I wasnt his dad woke him up early in the morning and told him first. I told Daniel that how every year on our birthdays it would be a race to see who was able to say happy birthday first it would always be us we would wait to 12:01 am to say happy birthday and even with setting alarm clocks that was one of our best time and we all looked forward to it. I miss you my little love so much today is your services in Guadalupe Arizona, its gonna be a long day yet another. Love you my little one

Yesterday was sad and today it is even more your loving Nana would have been 77 years old, I think about all the ones weve lost over the year and everytime I do it just brings me to tears, we only had 26 years with you and still to this day I wish it was me, it always should have been me, when you warned me about not driving and called me franctic you made me promise not to drive not to go anywhere just to stay home. The storm we had here was really bad I was to go into work that day and dad wouldnt let me leave the house, I would have been in a 6 car pileup that day and more than likely would not have survived the accident you choose to tempt fait, why my love why did you warn me knowing the consequences, you should have just let me go, it was always to be me and not you, I cry all the time, I miss you all the time , my heart hurts everyday, everyday my love. The things you could have changed by being hear you could have watched the kids grow up love them hold them and most of all be with them, im Just so sad today I miss you I love you and my heart has a piece missing your my baby my first love my life. I miss you my love and I hope to see you soon.
Love Mama

So little one today was the first start of your life it was the start of labor and bring in a new life that grew within me and I was so excited to meet you, Nana was with me every step of the way you were tias baby, Nanas first love and we cant forget uncle you are always his favorite, but hell never admitt it. I miss you your birthday is coming in a few days and Im so sad, I wonder what you would be doing right now and all the parenting you would be doing for the kids, I cant call them babies no more, theyre young men and young ladies, I hope they realize how much you love them and hope you visit them as much as you can. I wish I could trade places with you, just so you could be here with your children, helping them with their homework and mending broken hearts. I would gladly trade places with you. I know your here I can feel you around me and Nana she is out of control, please ask her when she visits us not to smoke inside the house, its horrible yet I would give anything to have both of you back just to hug and kiss your forehead and Nanas too. Well we went to the cancer center in NY and they did some test on me and we thought that everything was good the doctor said that he didnt see anything and that I should be fine and the pancreatic cancer should never come back, it sucks cause all my friends that are doctors said he should not have said anything.......Well I received the Bone Marrow MRI results and it doesnt look good I have Lytic Lesions behind my knees on my femerol heads within the the marrow as well as T10-L2, not looking good, I just pray that I go quickly no chemo no medications just close my eyes and float away quitely and peacefully I miss you so much I love you so much, please take care of Nana I love you my little love always

Today may just another day but today was the most wonderful day of my life, today is the day god gave you to me, not to keep but to show the most beautiful gift of the gift of unconditional love not a vein love or selfish love but yet one that that is whole heartedly, 32 years rina 32 years I loved, laughted, cried, and still my heart misses you so. I will see you soon my love, just not yet, dad said he's not ready to let me go as I to am not ready to let you go...love you rina always love mama

December 2, 2015

It has been a year yet to be passed, to love to laugh to cry to hope and to keep our faith. A person once told me a log time ago you can never laugh to much and you can love and be loved, this is what it is to be human. We laugh we cry we love and be loved, why is it that people must have a loss in order to feel. My heart has an empty space within it, as I hope to have that spaced filled when I see you again, until then I will meet you when the stars shine with the bright moon and when I wake to the crisp air and as the sun shines down upon me it's the warmth that surrounds me with your arms and ever lasting love. My heart misses you so my little love...Love me

Tis a fearful thing
to love what death can touch.

A fearful thing
to love, to hope, to dream, to be

to be,
And oh, to lose.

A thing for fools, this,

And a holy thing,

a holy thing
to love.

For your life has lived in me,
your laugh once lifted me,
your word was gift to me.

To remember this brings painful joy.

Tis a human thing, love,
a holy thing, to love
what death has touched.

Today is another day that still haunts me it is the day I found out that your bay had past away. I will never forget the look on you face when you got off the bus with mickenzie and mickeila. You were so happy to see us on Christmas morning. After telling you the News and watching the life drain from a beautiful happy smile to tears of sadness tears I cound take away. As you say between York sister and at that time I told you I don't know what to say. Yet now that I know what you we're geeky I now fully understand what heartache filled your heart and have to live that day over and over again. I miss you so much there is a hole in my heart miss you yet I al and forevermore carry both you and Trent with my heart and soul.
Love you every day mama

Lurina you always wanted our family back together, and we are the only thing we are missing is you. Hollween came and went and again I missed you so much dad stills says hollween is not a holiday but for us it is and always will be.

Well my little one tomorrow is your Birthday and by now I would have had your list of things you want. I wish I could just hold you in my arms again just one more time to smell that baby smell upon your little bald head. I sold my diamond earing for you just so I could get your balloons for your birthday. Daniel has put in a very special request for you, by the way we owe him 90 dollars yeah not only has the quite game gone up, but for every A he get in school is 5.00 dollars and yeah he gets it from both of us. Let me tell you as soon as he got his report card, he said hey Grandma Dee guess what? I said what he said you owe my 45 dollars! I got all A's oh and by the way Grandpa Jeff owe's me money too. I started laughing I said do you know how much we owe you, with a quickness that boy replied 90 dollars 10 dollars less than a 100. OMG that kid is just like you. I asked if he takes I.O.U's he did'nt know what that was. So at Sea world we carried on the Family Tradition on the Pearls. It was funny Sara and Tina still have there's and it was Trinity, Anaya and Lexis's first time. Even Little Mary got one it was great. Nana is looking forward to Easter and the kids trying to find the eggs in the grass. I will be sure to do the money eggs just like last year. Again Daniel collected the most in eggs. As soon as the site is able to upload video's I will be sure to upload them. I was looking at Mikey's first hair cut it was halarious. More boogers than anything. Oh they made a remake of FootLoose yeah. It is official the creativity is no longer there during this electronic age. Thank goo though the KIDS DO NOT HAVE THAT OPTION, nope outside and play....:)I really miss you so much I will be sending your ballons in the morning let me know that you got them ok. I love you with all my HEART FOREVER MY LOVE. LOVE MAMA

Well Rina it is 3 am and I want to tell you how excited the babies are about today Santa has come and left them so many presents, and then they are so excited to go to San Diego for Christmas, We will be sure to post the pictures of Shammu Splashing them :) Everyone one will be there Nana, Tia Missa, Tina, Sara, Dad, Cousin Andy and his babies our family together for christmas. Back home in San Diego. I really miss you dad and I were looking at pictures last night and he got so sad. We love you so much every day we think about you. The kids are getting bigger and bigger every day and boy let me tell you... The Quiet Game Now cost 5 dollars, I guess you can call it inflation from when you guys used to play the quiet game. But I bet you would never guess who always talks first. Michael he is the fist one to talk oh and let me tell you he doesn't stop LOL...:) Even Trinity does very well I ended up paying out 15 dollars for the quite game in the car twice in one week. All three were quick to collect their money too. LOL Mikey he got a dollar just for trying. We will see how well it works this time.:) I love you so much and miss you every day. The babies miss you too. Keep an eye on us and I will see you soon visit every now and then ok. Just to popin and say hello. Love you forever with all my heart Love Mamma Beaine Baby

My dearest little one, I wrote you a very long letter yesterday letting you know how everyone was doing. We all miss you so much everyday. The babies are so big and getting bigger everyday. Daniel misses you and makes wishes everyday for you, he is a straight A student. Anaya is the social butterfly and only attends school to make new friends. Trinity is a chatterbox non stop...and everyday her and Michael whom she bosses around he just takes it from her. Michael still does not like the texture of meat, he is strickly a vegatarian. Tina misses her big sister, Sara misses you too. Drea is still the little mother... Dad really misses you so much... We love you... Love mama

Ok my love we sent your balloons to heaven with a pink rose attached for you. I spoke to Mikey and he wants to let you know that everything is alright and will be fine so don't worry. He knows you are watching over us all. The babies miss you, we miss you so much. It is not the loss in which is upsetting me most, please don't get me wrong. It's the thought of the babies no longer feeling your arms around them, it's the plays that I know they are wishing you there. The stars and wishes D makes every day to wish you back here with us all. Everyday Mikey looks more and more like you. every day Trinity gives him hell, and Anaya is still the lovely little princess she has always been. Trinity loves to play in the dirt and fills everything up with dirt. Michael doesn't get too dirty and loves to be a pain in the backside, he diffently did not get your appreciation for food. He is by far the pickest eater ever. Trinity is a garbage can, and can finish her food and then finsh Michaels, Anaya's and Daniels. Daniel got all A's and his teachers love him, he has been such a good boy and loves sicence and math go figure Sicence from you and the love of Math and numbers from Grandma. Anaya is going to take participation again in Kindergarden. It seems she loves school, but only to socialize with everyone in the class. Her home work holds no value to her, but boy she is the social butterfly.

So my 46th birthday past by and the race between you and tina never came. You always beat her to wish me a happy birthday between you calling me and saying happy birthday beaine baby and your sister calling me and telling happy birthday beaner..While I didn't have the heart to tell her that you told me happy birthday in my dream. The babies are getting so big, Anaya's first day of school is on August 13th I am sure you will see her on her first day. The twins are getting so big they miss you so much I love you so much and miss you every day.
Love mamma

Rina,
Today is your birthday and I remember as though it was yesterday. My water broke on January 18, 1984 at 6:00 AM and I didn't have you until today at 11:26 AM. Nana was there the whole time holding my hand as I had every contraction. She was there every second and finially when I had you, how wonderful that was, just to see your little face and your light hair on your little bald head. You were so quite and such a good baby. I had my own room at Memorial hospital where I had you, and Grandpa brought me food my favoriate two jack in the box toco's an order of onion rings and a Dr. Pepper. I remember when he first saw me after I had you. The first words out of his mouth was what the hell happened to you, you look like you just got out of a boxing match. Of course my little love my eyes were sallowen from the labor pains, but when I first got to hold you in my arms everything faded away the moment I first saw you and held you in my arms. I still remember when the nurse brought my little girl into the room, oh and by the way it wasn't a girl they brought me it was a little boy. The nurse kept insisting that I had a boy and I kept telling her no I had a little girl. Finally I won she went a brought me you. I think about things and I am so happy and proud to have been your MaMa for the first 26 years of your life and will always love you forever in my heart. I just can not belive that you are not here, I just want to hear your voice I want to tell you I love you. I want so much for you and not I want you to know that I am ok. I will keep my promise to you always please just keeping watching over us, and I will see you when I get there it won't be for awhile but, I'm in no hurry, I want to enjoy the time I have with the babies and your sisters. I love you so much and miss you so much. Mikie called me three times to make sure that I was ok, He told me to tell you how much he loves and misses you every day of his life. As I mess you everyday of mine. The babies are all doing really good and getting bigger everyday. Daniel misses you so much Rina they all miss you so much. Everyone misses you so much. I love you with all my heart and soul and I will never ever forget the love and hope you have given to all of us. Thank you for making us a family again.............Love always MaMa

Rina,

You would be so happy Christmas was wonderful just like Thanksgiving. The kids picked out the Christmas Tree and when you guys were little I used to tell you to pick out the one that talked to you. I know you were there the kids walked around and around the trees with their ears to them it was Daniel then Anaya, Michael and finally Trinity. They all followed Daniel around the trees and listen to see which one ws going to talk to the to take it home with them. While they were walking I was on the other side walking listening to the tree's finally the tree said pick me pick me Daniel take me Ayana take me Michael and Trin Trin pick me. Daniel was so excited that he yelled grandma dee did you hear it did you hear it, it talked to me it said to pick me. So I gave D the money to pay for the tree they were so excited. After that we went home to decorate it I caught it all on video so when Mikey comes home he can see it. They were so good they took turns hanging the bulbs on the Tree and Dad was laughing he said look at all the bulbs at the bottom of the tree. I took lots of pictures and will post them for everyone soon. We love and miss you so much my love but don't worry everyone is ok we all miss you so much. xoxoxoxoxxo mamma

Rina,

Today I am really missing you and I am sad, beyond beleif. We are getting ready for Christmas and soon the lights will be up on the tree and the babies will be decorating their stockings. Everyone is feeling the loss lately tina is so sad and dad is getting upset. I am really missing you I want you back home with us. Mikey misses so much and anaya still thinks your coming home. Daniel wishes everyday for you to come back and I keep telling him oh we can wish for is happiness and that you are with Trent right now. Daniel is so smart and he said you know grandma dee God needed my mom their to takecare Trent so he wouldn't be alone in heaven thats why she is there. Grandma Dee thats why God took her so soon. We set loose a rainbow of baloons and every sent them to heaven for you Daniel picked them out and we let them loose in the Spring. Now when D sees a rainbow he would tell me look grandma dee my mom got her balloons we sent her. My heart misses you so much and they say everyday will get eaisier, but it's not easy to want to pick up the phone and wnt to talk to you and I can't I hate it. I miss you so much I will love you for all of my life.

Love Always Mamma
