We would like to send our heartfelt condolences to Minerva's family, especially Marion. We are truly saddened by your loss. My son, Mikey, always refers to Minerva and Marion as "The Grandma's across the street" because of her kind, and friendly demeanor. Minerva and her entire family will be in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless!
