She worked many years at the Miller Hotel in downtown Brownsville, Cummings Middle School, and The Brownsville Coffee Shop. She was loved very much by her family and was always there for all of us. She had a big heart and she loved children. She was a mother, a grandmother, and an aunt to all of us. She had a wonderful sense of humor and was the coolest Nana in the whole wide world!

“We love you very much Nana, with all of our hearts, and we are very blessed to have had you in our lives. You always made us your priority and for that we are thankful. One day we will all be together again, but until then rest in peace. We will always love you, and you will forever be in our hearts. Our love, our heart, our Nanita. Love Roxanne “
