Juan and Willy, I'm so sorry about Alice. It hurts me not to have been able to be there for you when you were hurting both so much. I hold nothing but good memories about Alice and know she's with our Lord in Heaven. May God relieve some of your pain and help you through this. God Bless you and your brother and Father. Love you both your Tia Irma.

To my tio and cousins,

I am sorry about your loss. Even though its been some time since I last spoke with my tia Alice, I remember the last word of advice she gave me was to continue with my education. I remember only good things about her and I remember her smile.

Especially the times she would pop up at our house with a lil surprise in her pocket, that of course would end up being a baby chihuahua. Thanks Tia Alice so much for that, may u Rest in Peace. love you
