To my mom Delia and my Tia Lola, The two most beautiful angels up above, There isn't a day our families don't hurt for not having you both beautiful ladies here with us. We miss you both so much that many times it seems so unbearable. The only thing that keeps us going is the strength you both and our dear God gives us from above. Thank you both for watching over us and until we see you both again, May God bless you two beautiful ladies always. Love you mom and Tia Lola and miss you both so much.

Buenos Dias Madres de Nuestras Vidas! Pardon my spelling, I can speak Spanish but spelling no so much! :)
So, yesterday was Mexican Mother's Day and tomorrow is the American Mother's Day. I hope you both have and will be celebrating both, with all that are with you. Mom, Dad got his teeth and is doing good, just needs to get used to them. His Dr. is very good and very encouraging which helps alot! I was kind of worried about him last couple of weeks, because his INR levels went up and stayed up for about 3 weeks. When he went on Wednesday they had come down, so he doesn't have to go back for 3 weeks! As you both know, I will be turning 60 on Monday,can you believe it? I know that it's going to be hard for me, because I was SSSOOOO used too both of you calling me on my Birthday! Yaya, I remember the last Birthday that you called me and said that the day couldn't go by without you calling me an wishing me a Happy Birthday! I was at my Mom's and we were going out to eat and you called just before we left, I always remember that day! Where has the time gone? My Man is fixing up the backyard for me. He bought me a tree, so beautful and then I have the tree that Peter brought me from their house and it's also doing good. Sisters, Viv and Roni brought me mini roses when I had my knee surgery and I planted them in pots and they are also doing good. When I took Dad to home depot last week after his Dr appt, he also bought me a rose bush and one for you to plant at your house! Yaya, Toni and Armando helped me sssooo much before and after my surgery to the point I got spoiled! Just kidding,I was already spoiled! :) As an early birthday gift Toni bought me this beautiful plant that I had been wanting for so long, I just need to buy a pot for it, it's huge!!!! Bueno Mis Corazones, como sempre las estranio y por sempre en mi mente y mis resoes (prayers)! Feliz Dia De Las Madres!!! Con Mucho Carino Y Amor!

Buenos Dias mis Angelitas! This has been a very interesting week for me. Starting on Monday, I ended up in the ER by Ambulance no less! I had a chest freeze, not a brain freeze! They checked me out and sent me home with instructions NOT to clean out the ice maker again! Took my Dad for his INR test on Wednesday and he's doing good. He had to stop taking the cumadin on Friday though, because of the dental appt on Wednesday. On Thursday we finally met Gabe's little girl, Ariel and her Mom!! She is for sure an Yrigolla, split chin and all!!! Tina brought them over. Fred and Ceci also came and brought over Olivia! It was so awesome having the both of them here! They are such precious little angels that we have been blessed with! So, Philip from Michael got married on Friday, Dad and I went to the ceremony at the Santitos on Congress. They are working on restoring them. It was beautiful and a little sad that Donna wasn't there but I know she would have been proud of both her sons and very happy for Philip. Ok, Mom I have to tell you that at the reception Dad danced with that lady from Texas, but only cumbias! Mom, she kind of looks a little like you and Mom she was wearing those soft slipper shoes you used to wear! Yaya, Toni went with us and she too danced a couple of cumbias! I didn't dance because of my knee, but hopefully after surgery I will be able to do my moves again!!! :-) OMG! I forgot to mention that Lila had her baby! Her name is Lilee and I saw her briefly on Monday when all my drama was happening! Lila saw the fire and rescue and stopped by to see what was going on. So, I'm a Nana again!!!! As always and forever, All My Love, Me

Happy Birthday to my Beloved Mother, Dolores Yrigolla! The Mass yesterday in your honor and my Yaya's was Beautiful! The songs they sang were very emotional and I could not help but cry and give thanks that we were so blessed to have you both in our lives! One of my prayers has been answered and the boys are back home with us where they belong. Thank You and my Dear God, for seeing my pain and suffering while they were away and taking care of them and bringing them back to me. I hope you are having a celebration in Heaven with all who are with you! As always keep watch over us and know that you both are forever in our thoughts,prayers and in our hearts! Oh,and Mom after I took Dad to his Dr. appt for his feet, we went to go eat at five minutes and Dad was lucky, but I broke even! ;) All my Love to Both of You, Me

Well, my Beloved Angels a New Year has begun and yet nothing really changes. Not such a good ending to 2012 for any of us, but there is always hope that this year 2013 will be better! We still miss and cry for both of you, because we would love to have you here for just one more day, but it is not to be. We ask You and our dear God to keep watch over us and give us strength to go on without You and keep the Family bond STRONG! Although we know you live within us, at times it's just to much and we cry for you to give us guidance from above. Oh, and Mom, Dad now says he hasn't eaten in four days! Aye! :) Mom,remember back in October 20th,2012 on your 2nd year of entering eternal rest, Becky had requested a Mass for both of you but,instead it was intended for someone else! Well,this Sunday January 6th,2013 a Mass will be said for both of you at 12:30p at St Margarets Parish, a day before your birthday Mom! As we pray for you and for each other,know that you are always and forever in our thoughts and in our hearts! May God Bless Us All! With All Our Love, Yrigolla and Rodriguez Familes

Happy Thanksgiving,to the most Beloved Guardian Angels we have in heaven!I know it's the day after but,I got this new computer and it wasn't ready until late afternoon and by then I was told to take a nap!That was before I had eaten!So,Mom we had Thanksgiving here. Dad called around 7a to see if we had already prepared the turkey!It's a good thing he called because we hadn't done it yet.So,I went to the store and got what I needed.Anyway it was a huge turkey 26 pounds that Dad and I went to the tribe to get for free,because we are seniors!We also made a ham. The rest brought a different dish and pies,everything was SSSOOOOO good! Yaya,I had invited Toni over but Angelica had surgery on Monday and is staying with Toni. Angelica had already bought all the fixings and turkey so Toni made it at her house. This was a hard year for all of us, but we are very Thankful for all the Blessings and Prayers answered that Our Dear God has given us. So, Loves of our Lives, keep watching over us,as we keep you both in our thoughts,prayers and forever in our hearts! With All My Love, Me

Good Morning Angels, Mom yesterday was Halloween and I couldn't bring myself to go over to Dad's. He called me to see if we were getting kids come by, but we had only had a couple of them. I did however spend most of the day with him. I took my car in to Pep boys for tires and he went to have his INR blood count checked and it was GOOD! When, I called him he was visiting with you, so he came and picked me up. We went to go eat and afterwards we when to Big 5 and he bought me a knee brace! It really didn't help me but just the fact that he's worried about me is so thoughtful! Anyway, we went to his heart Dr. appt in the afternoon and he is also doing GOOD! Well,except for needing to lose weight, but don't we all! :-) His next appt is in six months. Yaya, I didn't see any of your family this year, but the boys saw Didi & Lily from Rosanna at the Victory church, where they had booths with games and food? Forever in my thoughts,prayers and in my heart. With All My Love, Me

Mom and Yaya, sorry about the mix-up at the church on Saturday. The Mass really was intended for both of you. None the less there were a lot of family and friends that attended. We also had a good gathering of both here at the house afterwards. How Blessed are we to have had you both in our lives and now have you both as our Guardian Angels watching over us. Yaya, today is your anniversary and I am so Thankful, that you and My Tio Pewa, came to me and prepared me for my Mom entering eternal rest. I know it was a dream, but it's a dream I will never forget and will cherish forever. Like my Tia Carmelita, said as I showed her the picture of both you together "All we have left are the memories". Always and forever in my prayers and in my heart. With All my Love, Me

To the two most beautiful women in the world, My mom Delia Rodriguez and my Tia Lola Yrigolla. Not a day goes by that your families don't think and miss you both so much.God has truly blessed our family with the best Mothers a child could ever ask for. We are so grateful for the time we were so fortunate to have you in our lives and will always treasure the memories we had with you both. What keeps us going is knowing that we have you two special angels up above to pray and to protect our families always and that we will be together again.We all love and miss you both so much that the pain at times feels so unbearable but what keeps us going is the strenght you both send your families from up above and also the memories we have of you both.May God bless you both always and may God grant us the strenght to go on.Love you Mom and Tia Lola,Rest in peace.
