Before " The Godfather ", there was, " La Madrina. " She was my sister, Susan's Godmother, and that's what we would call her. La Madrina. My mother, Delia Alvarez, and Viola were best friends. We have so, so many wonderful memories of her, Sylvia and Anna Linda. Growing up together and attending their family reunions were so much fun. All the Mascorros made us feel like we were part of the family. It was simply the best time of my life. La Madrina will be missed tremendously. Anna & Sylvia, you will forever Be in my thoughts and in my prayers. Love, Hugs, & Kisses.

The wedding picture is most memorable to me. I remember when you came all dressed as a bride with your husband to see mamma. She had just had surgery and was not able to attend. You were mom's most favorite niece. Your Cousin, Elva.
