I loved that Mrs. Gonzalez was so loving, whether you were family or not. She always made it a point to make you feel special and was ready to share a meal with you. She was up to date with what was going on in your life when you visited with her; she browsed Facebook and was in the know. She passed these wonderful qualities on to her children. She will be missed. Praying for the family.
