I am shocked and saddened to hear of Sra. Rojas' passing. My heart and prayers are with the entire Rojas family, especially my son Mario Rojas, who has now lossed another dear grandmother, and his father Joel who I am sure is missing his mother dearly.

Remember
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

I miss your laughter, fun, and gentleness.
I didn't get a chance to say goodbye
To you, to tell you that I loved you, to say
What now must be one long, unbroken cry
Of pain, now that at last you've gone away.
I cannot tell you what a joy it was
To be your grandchild.
I wish I could have been with you when you,
Perhaps aware, perhaps not, turned towards death.
To share your fear, your hand, your one last breath.
I wish, I wish, I wish . . . but it is done,
And now I must surrender what is gone.

A Aquellos que yo Amo
Cuando me haya ido, libérame, déjame partir Tienes tantas cosas que ver y hacer. No debes atarte a mí con lágrimas, Alégrate de que compartimos muchos años juntos. Te di mi amor, y tú sólo puedes intuir cuanta felicidad me diste. Les agradezco el amor que cada uno ha mostrado. Mas ahora debo viajar solo. Aflíjanse sólo un poco por mí, y luego confórtense a través de la confianza, Es tan sólo por un tiempo que debemos separanos, Por eso bendice los recuerdos del corazón. No estaré lejos, la vida continúa. Si me necesitas, llámame y vendré. Aunque no puedas verme o tocarme, estaré cerca. Y si escuchas con el corazón, oirás todo mi amor en torno a ti, suave y claro. Y entonces, cuando tengas que emprender el camino solo, s aldré a tu encuentro con una sonrisa y un "bienvenido a casa".

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
