To the Family of my dear friend, Della, (Aunt Della).
My heart is heavy for you. I will miss her, talking on the phone the last few years.
All the fun we used to have as neighbors and later when she would come to San Antonio.
Loved her dearly.

It was a absolute pleasure taking care of Mrs Adela behind that tough exterior was a kind and thoughtful person. She was so proud of her family especially the Aggies!! While I take pleasure in doing my best to make her last days comfortable and dignified, I will miss and always remember my dear Mrs. Adela. Prayers and Love
