Dora was a beautiful lady inside and out. We both graduated from Sharyland HS so I knew her from school. Later we met again when I started working at Bryan in Mission. We had daughters the same age and interacted through them. When I transferred to O´Grady I worked with Tony at that campus. Urbano, Dora´s brother was in my sister´s basement class so I knew the family and saw them through the years. I will always remember Dora´s kindness and her beautiful smile. My sincere condolences to the family. Sending prayers.

I had the pleasure of having Mrs. Pena as my prek teacher at Mims. She truly left a lasting impression on her students always with a smile on her face.
