Belen. Thank you so much for all you did for our family. Especially when the kids were small. For saving me when I almost burned the apartment down, getting Manuels dinner ready that night when he came home on his lunch break.  And when I was working at the telephone company. We were on strike and you brought over a bag of groceries. You and Manuel were always there for all of your family. 
God Bless You Forever 🙏 ❤️

Mom, remember the story of the White Horse that I mentioned earlier. Today is Sunday  a Day of Rest and Reflection for all of us. A Day for Belen. Breaking Bread. Tomorrow you will get on the White Horse and make that final journey to be with Dad and all the Loved Ones who have gone on ahead of us. 
Love you Mom, Manuelito, Baby ❤️ ❤️ l

My memories I have of you Grandma is always spending the night on New Years Eve. Grandpa would go to the backyard and sound off his siren that sounded like a fire engine and we all would laugh when it struck 12. There would be gun shots and fireworks in the neighborhood (hahahah) thinking about that now sounds crazy !! We would wake up to the Rose Parade and breakfast. I pray your soul is resting with the Lord and you can look after your children & and all of your Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren. Rest in peace Grandma.  Love Rachel

Nane, Thank you for always being there for me and taking care of me from childhood to now. I accomplished a lot in life, and I got to see and spend time in wonderful places that I would have never gone to if it wasn't for u and tatas support.  Even alone I know I have your both watching over me now so I'm never really by myself and I will never forget what you have done..  Rest in Peace..

With all our LOVE,
Manuel & Gloria, Frankie & Ramona, Rosemarie
and All your Grandkids.

Grandma, I will always have my child hood memories of sleeping over your house; watching you make your home made flour tortillas which were so good & enjoying your famous chocolate fudge !  But what I will truly miss is all of our conversations we would have when I would visit you; I loved all of the stories.  Now you are with Grandpa & Welita & Welito.   I love you Grandma & God Bless you always.

It's funny how the little things you get used to when you are a child and sometimes take for granted, you miss and appreciate more as you grow up. 
For Grandma, it was always having something yummy for us to eat.  Grandma, you made the best cheesecake I've ever had and thank you for the recipe that you gave me a while back.  I still haven't been able to make it as good as yours.  And we always knew when we visited there would be a fresh Jug of Orange Juice ready for everyone...straight from the tree.  Fresh baked tortillas that we could sometimes help to make, but was more fun to watch you roll them with the rolling pin before baking.  And the best re-fried beans...i remember having to help rinse them, those were great.
No matter what you always had the best smile on your face for everyone... even for me whether i was being your "Chistoso", or "Precioso".   I always thought they were the same word but was happy to be called both.
Thank You for all the happy memories and keeping an eye on us when daddy was in school, we always had fun there.  
Going to miss that smile, but it will always be in my head.
Love You,   Little Manny...your Precioso.

Mom, it was a warm sunny day that we visited Dad. We shared a cool drink with him. Now he has company and I will visit you both and share a bigger drink with both of you. Nothing too Strong.
God Bless you both, Love you forever.
Manuel & Gloria

The first time I went in her car, she was driving. We stopped at a red light. Then she sped right through it and said, “Why should I wait? Nobody is coming.” I knew then that things had to go her way. May you rest in peace and may God bless you. 

Love,

Frank, Ramona, Regina, and Rachel

Hi Grandma,   I remember when Manny  and i were little and you used to give  us  Apples and watermelon.    Manny  would always finish first.  It took me a little longer to eat my fruit because    i  ATE   ALL  MY  FRUIT  which included the Seeds, Stems and the rind.    Did you teach me that??   or did i teach you  ?

We love you very much Grandma,  We are going to miss you  very  much

Love , Shelley David and Michael

My deepest condolences to the Quintana family.   I always remember Belen as a very sweet lady.  She loved my dad.   Her name for my dad was NITO BONITO…. When she would see me she’d say oh NITO Bonito’s daughter.    May you rest in peace Belen.   ❤️🙏🏼❤️…..  Always Naomi Aguirre Medina & Victor Medina.
