My mom was a sweet and gentile but patient person that was always willing to be able to be a mother whenever possible. She always wanted all of us to succeed in all aspects of education and also life itself. She was a daughter, a friend, a parent, who always taught all of us to work hard at whatever we were interested in such as a job to stick with it because it will prosper in the end and help us economically, also continuing our academic education without that we are going to progress socially, and lastly she was a Patriarch of our Family by leading us to the Promised Land of Opportunity in Life. For example: our son Eddie graduated from Harvard University with a Bachelors' degree in Chemistry which he always has excelled in Academics as a child. As for each one of us we all excel in other things such as being a Cook, or working in the Educational field helping students with their academic needs. So this why our Mom exceled in her Promise as been a Mom. She was a devoted parent and grandparent 100 % of the time.
Love You Mom, Always.
