Hey moms
I remember you worked at my High school cafeteria as the “French Fries Lady”. Every one would go to your line becuz you filled our trays and had a comment everytime (pinche vatitos) lol
Who would of thought i would have married your daughter and you would be my mother in law. I miss you so much. Our home is not the same without you here.
Love, Orlando

Hey mother in law it’s your son in law. I remember the fist time we met I think it was when I took your daughter from you we were real young. Lots of memories. I don’t even know we’re to begin so many great times we all had. I don’t know maybe it was meant to be. Me being part of your family watching all of your grandchildregrow up and some great grandchildren lot of memories. It’s hurt to see you go so soon. See ya in the after life love robert

Hey “granny” hope you’re having fun up there. I’ll always drink a couple extra cold ones for you every time we celebrate! 

Hi Tia , your nephew here. I will never forget growing up with you always around.  It seems like yesterday when you would come and visit us or we would visit you guys. It was always a good time listening to oldies and playing cards with your girls. They taught me how to play and you would always let me pour your Bud Light into a glass for you, I always got a kick out of that. I will always treasure those memories Tia, you were like a mother to me and I will never forget that, I love you very much and you will be missed but you have a mission in Heaven now God called you home,  look over us Tia we know you are watching now.

Like I always say when I'd see you, HOLA NANA! It's tweety. I promise to always remember you this way. You were the greatest nana in the entire world. Only way I can accept this is knowing that you are no longer confined to the body that betrayed you in the end. As much as we all prayed for you to stay in it a little longer because you're so incredibly loved. I now know you're free, happy, dancing, laughing and reunited with Salina and family in the most beautiful place where time no longer exists. This gives me peace. You're being the literal angel you are watching over the family you lived for. And I know you'll never miss anything that comes. The happy times. The bad times. You'll be there. Giving us strength and guiding us. Or enjoying the good times with your heavenly bud light! I'll miss you forever. But I know I will see you again. Until then... you and Salina take care of us from paradise. We love you, always. 

To my beautiful "Little Rita Margarita "
Tia , Thank you for loving me and always being there for me,  I Thank God for giving me all these years with you to create beautiful memories that I will cherish forever. Tia you are the most Amazing person I have known you welcomed everyone in your home with open arms. As I was growing up I loved it when you and the girls would come and stay with us we would sit outside and talk and have drinks and laugh. Your smile was the brightest and perfect smile that showed so much happiness.  Your love for music was so great your oldies I guess that is where I get my love for the oldies is from you. I will always remember the day of my wedding when I had the honor of you helping me get dressed and I can still hear you saying  " Weina why did you choose a dress with so many buttons"..lol... But that day I got 2 blessings one from my mom and one from you. The love you have for your family is so great and you loved everyone. My most special memories are when we would leave we always got a sign of the cross on our foreheads and a blessing and you always walked us outside blessing us as we drove away.  From an Earth Angel to a Angel in the heavens now. I am sure it is one big party up there now with you and Tio Mon now finally able to do the mashed potatoes and jitter bug... Every time I hear the Electric Slide I think of you and now even more so that song will be special.  Your laughter will be forever in my heart and your love I will cherish always.  Tia you always shared memories of my dad with me and now you can share memories with him about me.  Tia I will see you when I am called home , I know you will always be with us.  I love you Tia ever so much
Weina... 


Hi Rita
It's me Mula the only name you could find for me. lol! Fits me perfectly haha.  You will be remembered as always being the life of the party!! No matter what occasion you were the core of the apple!! Always a very strong and special Lady not only to your family but to everyone!! You kept your lovely family in line and always there for them through thick and thin. You always had something to say about everyone and that made me laugh so much😂, you had special little ways about you that everyone will cherish in their own way. You obviously touched many many hearts. You were very strong that you never let anyone ever see that you were ever in pain other than you immediately family! But that's who you were. The day I went to see you and like me being so emotional I started crying and you immediately scolded me not to cry you didn't want anyone to cry for you, you wiped my tears and said I'm ok don't cry and gave me a big hug. From that day I can't cry. You are and will be tremendously missed!! Love you forever and always! You left us sad but you made Salina very Happy!!! May you both rest in peace!!

 I will always remember you and play the Duke of Earl for you.  Love Gordo. 

Hi momma,
Our time together will never be enough. I carried your name and your smile, and for that i am forever grateful. When u asked me to lay with you on that last day.. i wished so bad that i could have ... but seriously momma i wouldnt have fit lol. We laughed so much together and i will miss our special moments.... not saying good bye.. but as you would say...”Later”. I love you, be good 😘
P.S. Dont worry, Ill take care of Daddy.

I will always remember you calling me Pocahontas this photo it was the last time I partied with you And tia I will keep it with me always you where such a fun tia to hang out with. I love you and will miss you always 

I have the fondest memories of Mama Rita, she was so funny and loving. She recieved me with open arms and welcomed me when I needed it the most.  She will be dearly missed. Love you always. 

Its still unreal to me, just a couple weeks ago you were starting to feel better and came outside with us, listening to oldies and even had a drink. Im so glad we had our last "cheers" together that day! Its gonna be weird to go home and you not be there, you were the heart of the house and it already feels different. I love you and miss you alot!! Definitely will drink a beer and dance in honor of you🕊❤️

Hello my beautiful Tia, well your calling came to soon and you and all that craziness will be truly missed.  That big beautiful smile, that long sleek hair, with the famous "chongo" on point, lol.  You were one of a kind. Forever in our hearts today, tomorrow and always.....

Hey MA,
I know Salina has come for you. You can now fly together and cause havoc lol. I will cherish our time spent together. Taking drives, having a beer or just sitting together on the porch every morning having a cup of coffee. There really are no words.. you are a miracle mom sent from the heavens and they called you back. Youve done so much for us all. I will celebrate our time together. I love you ma, sooo much. You were the most Realist, Greatness, Ultimate Bella! I miss you already 🦋

HOLA ABUELITA!!!
 (my usual greeting to you I can hear you saying "Ahh Gordita! don't call me that!")
I can sit here and write a novel from all the wonderful memories I have with you and of you. Everything from playing Barbies with me for hours, building my Barbie house by lining crayons on the floor.  Polishing our nails together talking about randomness and listening to your oldies.  Laying on your bed watching you get ready and singing "Sad Movies" together in our best voices. Knowing all too well you and I had no business singing the way we did but man did we belch out some tunes! (LOL) You calling into school for me when I was "sick" just so I could stay home and drink coffee with you and watch Price is Right, Maury, People's Court, One Life to Live and General Hospital all in that order! (haha) Growing up, I remember always thinking "My nana is literally the best person and I want to be exactly like her when I'm a nana!" You always made sure you looked your best, had nail polish on, eyebrows on point, cutest little outifits and hair done up! Literally the most dazzling woman I know... who is now my very own dazzling angel. I am eternally blessed and grateful Amelia got to make some memories with her "nana-nana" Shes been talking about you more than ever lately and I know its because you're around. I also know you were the reason she bursted out "MARIPOSA!" out of no where the other night. I will miss you beyond measure, and love you forever. Until we meet again, keep dancing in paradise and send butterflies when you can.... "I La You!"
Love, Your "Gordita" aka Felicia

There isn't anyone like you.  I'm forever grateful I got to have you as my Nana. I'll always miss you, but I'll never forget the laughs we had or the memories we shared. There will always be a piece of you in my heart. I'll dance whenever I hear your music even if I dance alone. But not really alone because I know you'll be there dancing with me (; I love you Nana. Until we meet again. Rest in Paradise. 

-Angelina
aka Girlfriend (: 💜

When I think of my tia I think of music, laughter, dancing and happiness.  She was always happy. She always made the sign of the cross on our forehead when ever we were leaving she made sure we would get home ok.  Now she is home not resting but dancing you will always be missed but never forgotten. Love you
