May the peace of God be with her family, knowing that Nana is forever without pain, hurt or sorrow and in the presence of our Lord.

"May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be Adored, Glorified, Loved & Preserved throughout the world, now & forever.  Sacred Heart of Jesus, please pray for me.  Saint Jude, Worker of Miracles, please pray for me.  Saint Jude, Helper of the Hopeless, please pray for me.  Amen."

Andy you will be missed you were a good grandma to my niece Natalia and nephews Bobo & Damian.  They lost both their Grandmas the last two months grandma Mary & Andy.  Cathy you  & your family took good care of your Mom.

Nana I am going to miss you so much more than these words could ever express.  The memories I hold, I will cherish forever.  It is very hard knowing that I will never be able to come to you for advice, guidance and most importantly to feel the love you always made me feel.  My world will not be the same, but I know that you are in Heaven looking down on all of us.  Nana may you rest in peace with our Heavenly Father and one day Nana I will need you there to greet me.  I love you now and forever.  Your Granddaughter Natalia

Andre (Andi) was a lifelong friend of our mother Minnie and all the Gonzales Family. We send our love and condolences to all of her family.  We've known her all our lives, enough so that she referred to my brothers and I as "mijo". First encounter was on Newton Ave during her family's front yard celebration.  As a nine year old riding my bike I thought I could ride with no hands eyes closed. As they opened I was crashing into the picket fence in her side yard. Andi and some other ladies took care of my injuries.  Years later, we knew she had our family over for a great dinner of tamale pie when she lived in Sherman and several years later came to our home in Bonita to do the same.  Andi was with us at Minnie's rosary 5 yrs and 4 mos ago...now they are together and we will honor Andi this week.  As Minnie would say, "God Bless Andrea".

Mom,  I am going to miss you and our visits. Even though it was a long stay at the Hospital, I still wasn't prepared for you to leave us. I want you to know that I am so grateful to be a part of our loving family. I imagine you in heaven with the crew and it makes me smile. Give Nana and Thatha a hug, and please don't fight with Aunts Carmen and Romie. Please don't pull our toes like you threatened to do for so many years!!! Aunt Dora and my Nina Gloria, Uncle Mandy and the brat, Auntie Sylvia are all thinking of you too. My mother loved her dance partners Uncle Wally and Uncle Joe. You both were so good to her. Your Nieces, Judi, Sandy, Barbara, Robbie, Debbie, Petey, and the baby Kayley are helping Lynda, Richard and I, with whatever we need at this time. Goddaughters, Pammie and Kimberly have been such a great source of comfort and support to me the last few years.  I also need to mention the nephews, who my mother always loved and had something good to say about all of them. Joey, Mark, Wally, Armand, Jimmy, Tony and Brian. Mom you were so beautiful in this picture. I will see you and the crew some day and hope you have found peace. You will truly be missed.
