My loving aunt, she was my second mom. I remember I could hardly wait for school to be over because I would spend my summers with her, uncle Serafin, and my three cousins. She taught me how to crusade. She said to me that crusade would keep my mind from thinking bad thoughts. Her advice and words of wisdom were priceless. Till this day I live my life just the way she told me. That's the reason I became a great women, and I hope and pray that I will be just like her. She is my aspiration and my roles model. When life was hard I could always count on her for direction and she always showed me the way to deal with life and it always worked out. You see, my aunt had the BIEGEST HAERT and the best in mind for all those people who had the privilege of knowing her. See always had a smile in her face no matter what. Her faith in God she trusts. My heart is heavy with pain I miss her so much and loved her with all of my heart. I will always remember her beautiful voice. She had a voice of an angel, her songs I will remember forever. She loved to sing. Know, she is singing with the angels in heaven songs to our Lord. I can't say goodbye, but I will see you heaven my dear Tia. Mary Lou.
