In loving memory of Maria, Mama to many, a woman whose heart overflowed with love, kindness, and laughter. She had a warm, infectious smile that lit up the room, especially when she saw her great grandchildren. Mama was a pillar of strength and a strong willed fighter, facing life’s challenges with remarkable courage. She touched the lives of many with her boundless love and was always ready to lend a helping hand.

Though she may no longer be with us physically, her spirit lives on, reminding us to see the best in others, to be brave, and to love unconditionally. This is not a goodbye, but a heartfelt "see you later." Mama, you will always have a special place in our hearts and your memory will be a source of inspiration and comfort.
