As an everlasting memorial to their mom each of the six children remaining would like for everyone to concentrate on these words when you think of Eleanor Flores:

She is Gone

You can shed tears that she is gone

Or you can smile because she has lived

You can close your eyes and pray that she will come back

Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left

Your heart can be empty because you can't see her

Or you can be full of the love that you shared

You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday

Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday

You can remember her and only that she is gone

Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on

You can cry and close your mind,

be empty and turn your back

Or you can do what she would want:

smile, open your eyes, love and go on.

Mother, Grandmother, Great Grandmother, Aunt, Sister, and Friend you are gone but you will never be forgotten!!!
