                                               The White Dove
Ama, 
On September 4th, 2018, this beautiful white dove came to the house every day. I would feed the dove, and on some days, it would eat and leave for a few hours, but then it would come back and sleep on top of the cage. You would always ask me, Vino la Paloma, yo le decia, si. She would go to the backyard with her walker to see it. 3 days before Thanksgiving, the white dove didn’t come back and you would ask everyday if it returned. I said no, even in her last days, when you were weak and in the hospital, you still asked me, Vino la Paloma? I said no, and you closed your eyes. I do believe that it was a messenger from God, an Angel that came to take her home to heaven. I miss you a lot Ama.

Ama,
Esta foto del arcoiris me recuerda cuando nos platicabas cuando eras niña. Subiste corriendo a la montanita cuando viste el arcoiris y tu vestido se veía radiante con todos los colores, tan maravilloso que no podías imaginar. Por eso, siempre decías, el arcoiris te dio todo su fuerza y tu salías adelante. Una dia que dios te llamará a su presencia, llovió muy fuerte, y en la tarde salió un lindo arcoiris. Le platique a la maestra de Mia, de tu historia y ella me dijo , yo le tomé una foto. Días después, ella le dio un cuadrito con la foto del arcoiris. Creo que este arcoiris fue un mensaje de dios las escalera para subir al cielo.

I will always remember my Mom’s smile and  the beautiful person she was.  Always looking out for all her children.  She dedicated her life to her family and loved  having children come to visit.  She treated everyone with affection and respect and never judged anyone.  She always blessed us when we will leave her home and asked for prayers for her.
I will forever miss my kind, beautiful Mom (Ama) her mission was completed  may she now Rest In Peace and send us her blessings from heaven where she has joined my Dad, brothers and sisters.

Ama’s Last wish was to stop in front of her home for one final time. And she earned it!

Thought I should share pictures from today's beautiful service, I know my Abuelita Victoria was smiling down at every single one of us, Very blessed  to be apart of this family.

Ama,
Gracias por ser una abuelita de Fe, carino, y amor! Gracias por compartir amor de mama y abuela hacia sus hijos al estar al lado de mi mami, mi hermano Tony, y Ramon cuando ya se iban al cielo. Para siempre sera una imagen tan bonita pintada de amor y fe en nuestros corazones! Ama...siempre estara en mis oraciones y pensamientos. La quiero mucho y la extranare!

In every life time, there is always an Angel always watching over the most important people in their lives. From what I remember the most of you, is that you had the biggest heart and whenever we would come and visit for a family gathering you would always remember my name. You were the person that made everyone come together and made my family and I feel at home. A sweet angel, indeed I am so sad to let you go but am happy to know that you are in peace and in the kingdom of God. Forever in our hearts ♥️

Esa sillita ahora ya esta vacia Ama ... pero aun asi, como la vemos en esta foto, es como siempre la vamos a recordar .... 👵🙏

Gracias Ama por todos sus consejos, sus lindos recuerdos cuando platicabamos y sus abrazos llenos de amor.  Es muy difícil haberla perdido porque sentimos mis hermanas y yo que volvimos a perder a mi mama (licha).  Ahora es un angel para todos  nosotros que desde el cielo nos va a seguir guiando y protegiendo como siempre lo hacia.  Ya la extrañamos mucho Ama pero son sus lindos recuerdos que tendremos en nuestras mentes que nos van a ser siempre sonrier al pensar en usted.  La quiero mucho Ama.  Mil gracias le doy por haber sido la abuelita mas cariñosa del mundo.  Ahora ya esta con mi mami tomándose un cafesito con pan otra vez. ☕🥧

My dear Grandma, 
     It’s so hard going home and not seeing you there. Every time I walked in the door,  I would see you sitting on your rocking chair ready to ask me how my day was. Even at your most tiresome time, you made an effort to see how I was doing and you always took the time bless me and wish me well, Thank You♥️. Grandma, you always took the time to listen and to give me advice and when things got tuff you asked me to be patient and reassured me that things will get better, Thank you♥️. Ama, you always made me feel safe and secure, Thank you♥️. Grandma, you’ve always welcomed me with open arms and an open heart and you never judged me, Thank you♥️. Ama, you took care of me when I was just 40 days old and I thank you and God that you were able to do the same for my kids, Thank you♥️ . Grandma, I am forever grateful for all you have ever done for me and my family and for loving me unconditionally. ♥️                   
     Ama, your whole life you have dedicated yourself to LOVE...to loving my grandfather to the fullest, to loving your children no matter what and to loving your grandchildren as if they were your own. Thank you so much for your kindness and support throughout my life. You are the definition of an “Amazing Person”, Im so honored and privileged to be your granddaughter. 
Te quiero mucho mi Ama

Grandma Victoria 
Where to begin.  I am very proud to be a Romero and very honored to have you as a great grandma. You are truly the definition of a good woman, very loving and soft spoken. I loved the feeling of coming to your home and sitting there talking about all the good memories. You always spoke about the good in everyone, you were very positive. I look up to you and I will forever have a place in my heart for you. I'm very grateful that my kids had the honor of meeting you and had the opportunity to know there great great grandma. Abuelita la quiero con todo mi corazon. Yo se que usted esta bien feliz con toda la familia en el cielo. Until we meet again. Con mucho amor Crystal

Ama mi corazon esta quebrado en mil pedazos. Solo se que DIOS me abrazo tan fuerte en ese momento que senti que me tocaba hasta alma.  Usted sabe lo que tengo en mi mente y corazon. Gracias por todo eso Viernes que pasamos juntas con mi tias. ME VA ASER MUCHA MUCHA FALTA. LA QUIERO MUCHO! 

My parents used to take  my sisters and I to your house every Sunday to visit you when we were kids. You were always kind and sweet with all of us. I remember you telling stories from your youth. You and grandpa were always too cute together, you always corrected his flawed memories, I think he made up stuff. He never fought you, I think he knew better. I admired how strong you have been all your life, your resilience, courage and your kindness. Till we see each other again. 

What an amazing woman! I’m so glad these last couple years we’ve gotten so close! I’ll miss u deeply and love u forever. Thank you for the wonderful memories! Forever in our thoughts and forever in our hearts

Grandma,
I have so many happy memories of you.  It's hard to accept that you are gone, but I know you're in a wonderful place.  Thank you for being kind, loving, and always there.  Thank you for taking care of me when I was young and always being a strong woman I could look up to growing up.  Thinking of all the things you overcame in your life, and all the love you had for your family is amazing.  For as many children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren you had, your love was endless.  It's comforting to know that you were greeted by loving family and friends when you left, and that you'll be there to greet us when we return home.  I love you and I miss you.  Heaven is more beautiful now that you are there.  

Grandma, el amor que tenia dentro de usted es el tesoro mas precioso que nos deja. Se que Dios esta feliz que ya ha regresado con El. La extranemos pero sabiendo que la Paz y Amor con que la reciebieron, es el mismo que nos dio usted en esta vida. Por eso, le damos las gracias por el ejemplo que nos dejo de como ser una mujer de fortaleza , una esposa de respeto y amor y una mama llena de amor y paciencia por sus hijos. Eres una mujer verdadera y el trabajo que hizo aqui muchas no pueden hacer. Gracias grandma por su carino y por los  momentos que compartimos. Por ensenarle carino a mi esposo y amor a mis babies. La quiero con todo mi corazon y espero hacerla sentir orgullosa. Espero ese dia cuando me recibe Dios y la puedo ver a usted y a mi grandpa otra vez. 

Grandma,
The love you left us in this life is one of the most treasured things anyone could have or ask for. Although we miss you, we know that that same love and the peace you were received with was just as great as the one you gave us in this life. For that, we say thank you. Thank you for the example you gave us of being a strong woman, a wife full of respect and love for your husband and a mother full of love and care for your children. You are a woman’s woman and you did an above and beyond amazing job that very few are capable of doing. Thank you for showing me what it means to be kind and for being so welcoming to my husband and loving to my babies. I hope to make you proud and I can’t wait to see you and grandpa and be home again. 
Love always,
Gracy Romero-King and family. 

Abuelita, le quiero dar las Gracias a Usted , una Gran Señora y a Diosito por habernos dado a Nuestro Padre Manuel Romero. El es un Padre ejemplar para mis hermanas y hermanos. ( Natalie, Delfina, Victor, Guadalupe, Alejandra, Noemi, Rigoberto, y  Javier Romero. ) y el Abuelito juguetón y cariñoso, el Amor de mi Madre , el Hombre con el Corazón más lleno de Amor como a nadie que hemos conocido en la vida. Este hombre que nos dio usted. La vamos a Extrañar Abuelita pero sabemos que estará con los que ya se nos adelantaron por el camino. Algún día nos reuniremos otra ves. Hasta entonces Abuelita, con mucho Amor de parte de todos sus nietos y familias. 

Grandma you were by far the strongest, kindest woman I have known! It’s a great sadness to have to say goodbye to such an amazing person. But there are nothing but beautiful memories of how you always showed your love to all of us. I remember visiting your house when I was a child and you would call me your niña and go get a bag to fill with animal cookies 😋 My favorite thing I remember is not a specific memory but how you always took the time to talk to me. You are now resting and rejoicing in heaven with all of our other love ones we’ve lost. I love you grandma and words can not describe how much we all are missing you but we will get to see you again 😘😘😘

Velacion

Rosario
