To my dear Veronica:
You'll never be forgotten though time has been passing by memories of you are still with me. Can't fill this emptiness inside. You'll always be apart of me in all I say and do and when I do real silly things I stop and think of you (Veronica). I keep the love I have for you strong within my heart and though you are not here with me we'll never be apart because you will always be in my heart my thoughts, memories, my prayers. Missing you... Always!
Love your one and only

Since the day you left us I have realized that in grieving we never healed. We all have to live one day at a time with a heartache that becomes part of us.
We all said a prayer for you Vero..
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary! Amen.
With so much love.. Handsome, Izzy, Markus, Jenny, Dillon, Gio. Anna, Jasmine, Willie, Millie, Martin, Mother Nature, Etc.. We all miss and love you very much.

October 31st, it's Halloween, on this day my daughter would go out trick or treating with the whole family, just to be with her brothers on this special day. We would go to each home Trick or Treating for candy until we couldn't walk anymore. Since my daughter passed away things haven't been the same. It's been two years and I always wanted Vero to know that I loved her, we all did, I think about you ever day of my life. I always will remember the memories we shared with one another. In each and every memory, I try to see you smiling, I never wanted to disappoint you as a mom. I always tried my best to be there for you. I always believed in you, I always knew you could achieve your goals, I was very proud of you and always will be no matter what. I loved you more than you will ever know. It's not the same since you been gone, my heart is still aching for you, and I know it's an ache that will never go away. I know the only time I'll be able to see your face, smile and touch, is in my dreams. I'm forever greatful that your my daughter, Veronica Linda Gonzalez, Rest in Peace. Love always - Mother Nature. *P.S. Happy Halloween in Heaven*

Today marks 2 years since you've been gone. God knows all the good memories that run through my mind. I miss you Vero , not a day goes by that I find myself thinking about you and so many funny and crazy things we did. I will always cherish that. I'm trying to hold back the tears but it's hard. Isabelle knows your in heaven and many times your name comes out of her mouth she tells me "titi Veronica is in heaven and I miss her" I show baby Markus your pictures and he says that's titi. We all miss you . I love you vero, always. I wish you were here with us building more memories. You will be forever missed.

For all you were to me in life and all the joy you brought, Your memory is with me in every single thought.
The pain i felt losing you will never go away, But knowing that you're in my heart helps me through each day.
When you were here I always felt That nothing could go wrong, but you're still my inspiration and your memory keeps me strong.
And though my heart is heavy It's also full of love, and that's enough to comfort me while your're in heaven above.
Missing you always, my beautiful Verolinda you"ll always live inside of me deep inside of my heart. Love mother nature

I miss those close to me who are now in heaven as beautiful angels my Verolinda.
Though your smile is gone forever, and your hand we cannot touch still we have so many memories of the one we loved so much. Your memory is our keepsake with which we will never part God has you in his keeping we have you in our hearts.
It is sad to walk the road alone, instead of side by side. But to all there comes a moment when the ways of life divide. You gave us years of happiness then came sorrow and tears, but you left us beautiful memories, we will treasure through the years.
Happy mothers day in Heaven with much love

MY DAUGHTERS CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN
I see the countless Christmas Trees around the world below, With tiny lights, like Heavens stars, reflecting on the snow. The sight is so spectacular please wipe away that tear, for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I hear the Christmas songs that people hold so dear, but the sounds of music cant compare with the Christmas choir up here. I have no words to tell you the joy their voices bring, for its beyond description to hear the angels sing. I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your hearts. But I am not do far away, we really aren't apart. So be happy for me loved ones, you know I hold you dear, and I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year! I send you each a special gift from my Heavenly home above. I send you each a memory of my undying love. After all, "Love" is the gift more precious than pure gold. It was always most important in the stories Jesus told. Please love and keep each other, as my Father said to do. For I cant count the blessings or the love he has for you!So, have a merry Christmas, and wipe away that tear. Remember, I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year!

We all need a time to grieve quiet time for reflection to sift through memories and come to grips with what has happen. We all need a time for tears, for the one who is now at peace in heaven, but for ourselves as we realize that things will never be the same. We all need a time to just "be," when we can open ourselves to God and let the reassurance of his everlasting love start to heal our broken hearts. Dear God, I'm praying for all of us and wishing us all peace. The courage to face the days still ahead and loving memories to forever hold in our hearts.
"Always Thinking of You."
Love,

Lately I've been finding myself missing you more than ever.. Just wishing you were here sharing more experiences with us, I'm so upset that all the pictures of us are deleted from my old phone and I no longer have them but our memories still remain close to my heart. I recently had a dream with you and you were playing with my hair talking about how long it was and all I remember was hearing your laugh and voice how I longed for it to be real, I couldn't help but wake up with a smile as I teared because I know your happy up there. I love you forever Veronica and I miss you an incredible amount, and I know your still being my number one fan even from heaven ??

Vero, when I look at the woman you've become I remember the little girl you were. And I can't help but be proud of the life you've created for yourself. You grew up to be your own person a thoughtful, caring woman with a strong mind and a big heart. You were there for everyone that loved you and you loved us too. You are the daughter every mother wishes for but I had the great fortune of calling you mine. And I love you more, much more than you could possibly ever imagine. I will forever miss you, and I will always keep you safe in my heart, where you belong. Happy 35th Birthday may god and the angles keep you safe in heaven. I love you and miss you.

What made Veronica so special and different : The tears, covered by her sunshine, the sadness, covered by her beautiful smile, the pain, covered by her love. It's no wonder, why God took her from us. Her job here was done.Veronica was needed in Heaven, to teach the other angels how to glow as she did.That beautiful smile and her love for all will never be forgotten. we should all remember her and learn to glow and love as she did. REST IN PEACE IN GOD's ARMS VERONICA. Thank you for being a part of our live's. May we all have learned from you. May you shine down on us alway's. Thank You. From your Loving Family, Uncle's : Eddie, Junior, Michael, Anthony, George. Aunt: Maggie. Cousins : Chantelle, Caitlyn, Ryan, Gage, Athaniel, William Lee, Bianca, Brittany.

The way I remember her, is with a smile on her face. She always had a smile on her face. I never saw her having a bad day. She was polite, kind and caring. She was always so courteous with her patients and she was always willing to help those around her. I will continue to remember her with that happy smile she always had. Rest in peace Veronica.
