Vives en el corazón y memoria de todos aquellos que te conocimos, con tu gran calidad humana, tu inteligencia innata, y tu valentía para enfrentar las injusticias. Amiga, pensando en ti en este y todos los días.

Esmeralda
Ya pasaronn 7 anos desde que no estas con nosotros. Es un dia triste hoy en tu aniversario. Espero no para ti. Espero haya una vida despies de esta y que Estes Feliz.  Aun asi. Pienso en lo injusta que fue la vida para ti. Amastes mucho, y no fuistes correspondida por aquellos en quienes dedicated tu vida. Pocos saben lo que sufristes en tus ultimos dias..no solo fisicamente dolor pero moral y emocionalmente. Aquellos que mas amabas fueron Los que mas te lastimaron. Pero ya no estas aqui. Ya no lo podran hacer. Tus Amigas que te apreciabamos te extranamis mucho y vibes por siempre en nuestros pensamientos.

Esmeralda, 
Casa dia se the extrana, 5 anos. Las personas Como tu siempre de recordaran y extranaran.  Duele recordar que no estas con nosotros para escuchar tu Risa contagiosa. Tu ingenio. Y tu Valentina defendiendo buenas causas. Deseo deveras tu espiritu see encuentre en un buen Lugar y que sea una Nueva Aventura para ti
Tu Amiga por siempre..Linda M

Ya pasaron anos, y te extrano cada dia, mi amiga

We are sorry to hear about the passing of Esmeralda.  We never got to meet her but only glimpse as she slowly walked with you on her infrequent strolls in the evening down Villa Avenue.  May she rest in peace.

I am so blessed to have known and worked with Esmee.  She devoted so much of her time and effort for others.  She worked so hard for the families that we deal with and made such a huge impact on those families.  And to her work family, she added so much life and laughter.  She was a beautiful person and I am going to miss her dearly.  To Jim, Michelle and Patrick even though I just recently met you I feel like I have known you guys for a long time.  Esmee always shared so many wonderful stories about you guys.

I had the privilege of being a close friend to Esmeralda, Accompanied Esmeralda in critical times after hearing news about medical results, I fell on my feet while she kept standing up, comforting me instead of me comforting her, I told Esmeralda "I feel embarrassed of walking by your side" she laughed and asked why, I said because I realize how distant I am from being the Great, giving, compassionate, wonderful human being that you are" she laughed and gave me a hug.Jim comforted me by saying, "There s no lost in Glory" his words made me realize that our beautiful Esmeralda is where she belongs now, with the almighty, full of light, w no pain, and surrounded by jesus's love,  till we meet again, beloved Friend.

Jim & family, I am so sorry to hear of Esmeralda's passing, i had only been around her a few times but she was exactly as written here. May God rest her soul.

Jaime, I am so sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of meeting Esmeralda about 6 years ago. My prayers are with you and your family.

Esme was a loving, giving, and delightful person. She loved her husband, her family, and life. She gave her best to her job and the people she served. I feel honored to have known her.

Tengo muy buenos recuerdos de Esmeralda muy luchadora, ella me dio animo y esperanza. Jim te acompano en tu duelo. Siempre la recordare.

Jim, I am so sorry to hear of your great loss.  God needs alot of angels.  May he comfort you during this most difficult time.

Esmeralda,
You made informed and conscientious choices about your treatment and never took anything for granted;  for that, I applaud you.
Your participation on the board of the Cancer Resource Center  will ceremoniously remain "your seat and your voice forever."
Love,
