A sweet and fragile soul fell more eager to depart her Nanakuli home after a long 3-month battle with stage-4 cancer throughout her mortal body. Assisted by Hospice care, her granddaughter, Kendra and daughter, Elmira sat by her side as she finally passed through the veil of this earthly life and into the spirit-world. She was comforted with countless visits by family and friends throughout her final fight of mortality. It brings her family comfort to know she is being received and met by the long-awaited reunion with her mama, brother, son-in-law, cousins, and so many more family that celebrates her return beyond our comprehension, furthermore the eternal joy we’ve been promised by the sacrifice and Atonement of the Savior and Redeemer of this world, Jesus Christ, is now with the spirit of our beloved mom, grandma, tutu, aunty, and friend.
