Since I learned of Tati Vela's passing, I find myself thinking of Ari and the family and how much we will all miss her and specially the sunday dinners. I join you and the many others who will miss her, but I remain grateful for having known her.

Consolation à ma chère amie Arielle a l’occasion de la mort de sa tante et poto mitan

Meme quand on dit que la mort a ses rigueurs,
A travers tes souvenirs ta tante te laisse son Coeur
Rien que pour vaincre les limites de la mort ou de la vie.
Il ne faut pas te laisser emporter ni assouvie
Et si la peine te remplie , rapelle toi les beaux souvenirs.

Viens aux jours ou tu sois plus proches d’elle
Et resent encore son sourire qui la faisait si belle
Laisse ta detresse et tes lamentations a Dieu lui meme
A jamais, fait de ces souvenirs dans ta vie un embleme.

My deepest sympathies,
-Vladimir J. David - Jan 14, 2007

Tatie,
I know you're not with us physically, but the Sunday dinners will be missed when we are in Haiti. I will never forget your smile and when you used to tell me "Arie il faut mange ce pas bon de faire ce que tu fais la" Don't worry we won't ever forget you because of the person that you were here and the angel that you are right now. Miss you very much
Your grand niece
Arie.

Elle est partie notre Vela
Mais elle est encore là
Tout près de nos coeurs
Où elle dort notre soeur
Heureuse de continuer à prier
A Protéger, à conseiller et
A aimer sa famille tant adorée

Tatie,

You were my friend, my rock, my mother, my advisor. I know you are now home with God and you are free, but I just want you to know that I am going to miss you enormously, but every time I feel sad, I will remember that beautiful smile of yours. I love you very much and we will without a doubt meet again.

Your loving niece
Arielle
