Bracamonte Family....
I had the pleasure of meeting Jess & Clara many years ago when their daughter Geraldine became my big sister. They both were such nice, friendly people. Always a smile and always something positive to say, and they welcomed you with their kindness. Clara was such a great cook, I just loved her potato salad, macaroni salad...everything she cooked was delicious. Attending her services, it was very apparent to me when I heard Jay & Clara's grandchildren speak about her with such loving memories and sharing their special memories with everyone there, I could not help but feel their loss. It pains my heart to know the void they must feel at this time, but I hope their loving memories of their Mom, best friend, Nana, and all that she meant to everybody, will give them peace. She was truly loved by all. If anything, she is a great example of what a Nana should be and I know her beloved Jess and daughter Cecilia must have welcomed her with open arms.
With my sincere sympathy and love....Celia Mora-Gillespie

I will miss u nana. The last time I saw nana, she looked as though she remembered me. The twinkle in her eyes said it all, although she did not say my name. Then she asked where my kids were..then she looked confused again; that's when I said goodbye. I will always think of u when the academy awards are on; as u will have the best seat on the red carpet admiring the jewelry and pretty dresses on parade. To me, u could have been on the red carpet showing off all ur best or a commentator analyzing what was being worn. Always in my heart. xoxo carmen bracamonte

Thank you Nana for the fond memories. Staying at your house with cousin Robert, Andrew, and John over the summer when we were kids stands out the most. You taught us how to cook, clean, wash dishes and play gin rummy...for hours. I will miss you as will my family. Love, Marty, Carmen, Clarissa, and Gabriella Bracamonte

Our thoughts and prayers go out to you in these difficult times. May all your memories bring you serenity. Nana has a special place in my heart. The time that I knew her when I lived in her guest house, she treated me like family. I remember her inviting me when supper was ready or to just talk. We would talk about family history or just have a laugh! Nana was a strong women with a gentle heart that touched all and she sure touched my heart. She will be missed. I miss her now...Love you much, Nana!
