Lila had the biggest heart of anyone I’ve known. I never once heard her raise her voice. More than once, she quietly cried. Not for her own sake, but when reminded of the tyranny and suffering in Cuba, of the horrors of WWII, or of the loss of her dear Sonny. While the realities of a cruel world may have seemed too much for her to bear, the core of her spirit, her unwavering sweetness, never flagged. 
Lila’s selfless and gentile love were a constant in my life, and a lifeline during my childhood. I will never forget my sweet, loving, Lila. 

Lila was the sweetest grandma - always loving and kind. I’ll remember cutting roses in the garden, baking cakes and licking the paddles, playing cards, rolling in the grass and eating oranges as we laughed watching Carol Burnette with Lila as a kid. I’m grateful for quiet Sunday afternoons in Miami with her later on. My sweet, sweet Lila, I love you. You are with the Angels now. 

Lila, as she was known to her grandchildren, was the sweetest, kindest person I have ever known. Even in her last years, when senility had claimed her memory, she was loving and beautiful both inside and out.
I will miss her dearly, but am comforted knowing she is now with her beloved Sonny and her siblings Vita, Lore, Dea, Cuca and Paco.
