Mom always put others before herself and loves her family unconditionally. She lived her life to the fullest, treating everyone like a rare treasure. Her pride and joy are every single one of her grandchildren. She was our teacher. Teaching us us all how to smile, laugh, touch, talk, eat, respect and forgive but most of all how to love. She taught us by example. She loved her garden, her roses, her animals. She loved to dance, sing and whistled all the time as she made tortillas with butter for us. You could always expect your favorite foods waiting for you on the stove when you went to visit. She loved to give herself to everyone. She was a strong woman who fought a long hard battle with Leukemia. Mom will be deeply missed but we know she will be with each and every one of us because her faith in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit is so strong.
