Mom, it's been 7 years since you went to heaven. Not a day goes by that I don't think about you, sometimes with sadness other times with a smile.....your unrelenting love and family focus made me the woman I am today, thank you. 

I love you and miss you, I can't wait until we meet again and I can hold you. You're always in my heart.

Hi Mom , we had one of your favorite meals together tonight...Wonderful! You are always with us in our hearts and all the wonderful memories you left us with. I'm sad you are not here but you always bring a smile to my face and even laughter. I just can't help it. Thank you. I love you.

Thinking of you today Mom, missing you, your voice, your laughter your mischievous snicker when you are up to something... It makes me sad sometimes but it also warms my heart to remember all the times we had together, we're blessed with so many memories of you I can't help but feel thankful. I love you Mom, you are always in my heart... until we meet again. 💐❤️😘❤️

Mama I can't believe it's been 365 days, since you've been gone. I'm still missing you..my heart hurts when I think about it. There's nothing I wouldn't do anything to have you back but I know that you are without pain, in peace with Jesus.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
 So many things have happened since you've been gone so many changes, I turn 70, can you believe it? I'm getting ready to retire in a few weeks, we have a beautiful new great grandson James Edward, your legacy continues to grow.....🙌
We sold the house we're getting ready for our last meal there today. We'll share stories, love, tears with Ang & Darrell , maybe Dez and you, it's KFC for you and me tonight Mom. ❤️🍗
I keep you close to me and my heart you still make me smile when I see something beautiful, something way too sweet or something scary, I think of you. 
One day we'll be  together again, I am thankful that you given us the strength to get through these times and that you're with Jesus surrounded with love and peace and beautiful things. So until we're together again know that Duane and I love you and miss you. ❤️🙏🏼❤️

Always thinking of Nana Cabel💞 Hello Carmen; today is one year ago we lost you. Just about this time of the night. So much has happened this past year. James Studebaker & his bride Jackie had a baby boy a couple of weeks ago. They named him James Edward, he's beautiful, but tiny. He weighed 6lbs 12 oz, just a little more than his Grandpa James weighed when he was born
Can you believe it, your first born Grandson, is now a grandfather. I'll try & send you a picture. Bye for now.
With Lo💖e Kenny

Nana, 
It will almost be  a year since you have been gone. It has gone by so fast. I miss you. I miss your voice. I miss telling you about my day. I miss telling you about the boys and all of the other kids. They all have grown so much. I miss planning a next visit. I miss sending you cards.  I just miss you. I have seen you in my dreams. You are so close, but yet so far. I just want to be able to hug you, give you kisses and tell you how much I love you. Until we meet again, keep visiting me in my dreams💙

Hi Carmen, it's Kenny writing too say Hello, and too wish you a Very Happy 90th Birthday !!! Lots of July Birthday's in this family Now!! I remember back in the day, when it was just you & I... Times have certainly changed. All your kids met up at the cemetery yesterday! Too celebrate You on your 90th. You're very special too them, as well as, all the rest of us!! We miss you, love you, and celebrate you always. L💖ve Kenny

Good morning Mom! Yes, I can't believe it's been 6 months since you've been gone. Hardly a moment goes by that I don't think about you, I miss you so much, we all do Mom. Knowing we'll be together again one day makes it bearable but doesn't make the loss go away. Lisa's Rose Kenny gave you is beautiful, just like you, I picked some white roses, put in a vase, there were so many in the bush... I know you'll enjoy them too, since you love pretty things 🌺 It's weird to me that things just go on, it's almost June, can you believe it?  Livvy is getting ready to graduate, I know you are so proud, James and Jackie are having a baby in October, our 2nd great grand ❤️, Mom, Ray turned 21 yesterday, how crazy is that? We miss you Momma, so much... We love you Mom, you have our heart... 

Mom! The rose Kenny gave you from Lisa's garden is beautiful.The rain and wind have made the white rose bush at the house bow down with the weight of the flowers.  Gosh Mom, 6 months you moved on to your address in Heaven. Feels like yesterday and so long without you at the same time. I love and miss you Mom, we all do.

Always thinking of you Nana Cabel💖
Hello Carmen,,, was just thinking of you. Thought I would say Hello, and Happy  Mother's Day too you!!! We all miss you very very much.... Especially Cece,,, she struggles with your loss almost daily. All your girls do, as well as, everyone else in the family! Bye for now. I'll try and send you a rose from Lisa's garden. She has some real Beauty's...

Hi Mom, not a day goes by that I don't think of you and wish you were here with us. I miss you so, so much.  Never knew I was such a momma's girl. Thank you for loving me unconditionally. Oh and the precious relationship you have with our girl Olivia....I could not be more grateful that she had such a nana/bestie in you. You adored and got each other. She doesn't share much with me but I know she misses you too.  I love you.

Hi Momma, its been 3 months today since you went to heaven.   It seems like yesterday but forever since you've been gone.  Not a day goes by that I don't think about you or miss you.  I still say"Hi",  "Goodbye", "I'm home!" when I pass your door... I spread out the tablecloth Anji brought for all of us to sign with expressions of love for you. It makes me cry & smile but it is so full of love and affection it really warms my heart. I started writing things that you love or make you happy around the edges. It's made me realize Mom, how much you loved your family,  the kids/ babies, good food,  sport and dominoes, you loved the competition, Mickey D's cones,  cinnamon dolce lattes from Starbucks,  you loved to giggle and laugh, drives to Apple hill and picnics and my heart is full to know that you were happy and God blessed us with such a good life.  I wasn't ready to let you go but I look forward to the day when we're together again, to touch you, hold you and tell you,  I love you Momma....I always will ❤❤❤

....Always thinking of Nana💘!!! Happy Valentine’s Day too U Nana;
along with my Mom & Dad... My Dad Passed away 61 yrs ago today.
He was 51 & I was 10!! He actually died not too far away from where
I’m sitting right now, maybe a mile or so. I’ll never forget that fateful day💞
It was February 14th 1958...💘 We miss you all very much with each day
that passes... Maybe you’ve all met?? Lets hope so.💖 Maybe Nana can tell them stories & show them pictures of all the beautiful children we all have. Including the grandkids, the greats, & the great greats, some belonging 
too them!!! Wouldn’t that be something...💗💕 Bye for now...


I remember all those wonderful dinners that Bill and I had with Carmen. We always had such a good time and enjoyed her company so much. I am so thankful for those happy memories.

Mom, did you hide those honey nut cheerios so you could ask me for cereal the next time you came over??? Well, I found them and I'll think of you every time I have a bowl and I'll enjoy eating that bowl of cereal as much as you did.  Actually, I really like cereal and popcorn too! I was watching a program yesterday Mom, did you know  that Venus and Serena were coached by their dad starting on a court in Compton? 

I love and miss you Mom.

To Nana
The last memory I have is when I brought KFC and we sat and talked for over 2hrs. It was so nice to catch up . You shared how you loved your family and knew how much they loved and cared about you. You expressed that you wished they wouldn't worry so much about you but we both agreed they would always worry about you because they all loved you so much!  I 
Will be ever grateful for the memory!
I will leave you this scripture that to me best describes your legacy.
1st  Corinthians 13:13 
So now faith  hope and love abide, these three, but the greatest of these is love.
Love and miss you nana and look forward to seeing you again in Heaven!!

Mom...  There's so many memories I have I don't really know where to start.  One of the earliest is when I had a bad infection in the back of my right knee, I think I was around four or five years old, but I remember how you just sat with me through the night, your calming influence enabling me to sleep.  Your visitation with Angie at Fort Ord when I was stationed there for basic training.  Most of all I remember your steadfast love through my ups and downs as I grew up, and even after.  Thanks mom, I'm SO glad and blessed that you came to that point in your life of accepting our Lord Jesus the Christ as your Lord and Savior because when it's my time for eternity I pray you'll be one of the first I meet...  Take care of Autumn for us if you will,  love you, be seeing you soon...

Hi Everyone... Always thinking of Nana, I found another poem the other day on Facebook.
This one is kinda for the little one’s who are missing there Nana,
but don’t have the resources too reach out to her, like the big kids do.
So here it is... Read it out loud too someone special💖💕 Enjoy...

Mom, I am missing you...it seems like you've been gone an eternity...but like you were here a minute ago...longing to hear you call my name, "Hey Cec"....I can't wait until I hear you again...I know you are with Jesus and that is the only comfort I get, knowing you are with Him, I am so thankful that he has prepared a place for you. I love you Mom, I can't wait until I see you again...

Momma, it's been 2 months since you went to heaven and not a moment goes by that I don't miss you. No words can describe the ache in my heart. I can easily be consumed by heartache, swallowed by it... I have to stop and remember your sweet smile, the twinkle in your eye, you're cute little chuckle when you think you got away with something... Oh Mom, you were a stinker, how I miss your joy in being caught red handed. There are days I still think (hope) you're going to come around the corner,...but  I'll wait until the day comes that  I will  hug you and tell you I love you, until then Mom you are in my heart...

Hey Mom, right now it is hard to bring memories to the forefront of my mind and share because it's still hard to fathom that I (we) do not live in the physical presence with you. Here is one thing.....Thank you for allowing me to set your hair and for not complaining when I did it the way I did.  I know  I didn't put the curlers in the pattern you did and I didn't always use the same number of curlers. Secretly, I was biting my nails thinking, "oh no" but you didn't say a thing, you just let me take care of you. You were going to be beautiful no matter what.  I have a picture of my set job but I don't think you'd want me to share it. I love and miss you Mom.

How I miss talking to you Nana. I miss your laugh, your voice,  just seeing your name pop up on my phone.  You know, baseball season will start soon. Who else am I going to recap the Dodger games with?? Definitely not Livy! 😁 let's keep our fingers crossed and hope they pull it off this year. Oh, and Elijah had his braces removed yesterday.  You would be impressed on how straight they are! There is so much to tell you. So much to say. So for now, I'll just talk to you as I drive or as I lay in bed. And hope that you hear all I say to you. I love you Nana. 

Many memories of Tia Carmen, when we, my sister Peanuts and I spent part of our summer at the big house on Mott street. We had fun with our cousins
 playing most of the day. Birthdays were celebrated with pinatas filled with candy. The clay pots were covered with colorful crepe paper by aunt Carmen.
 I usually stayed with Ma in the small house on the property. Sundays Ma and the aunts would make menuado, eggs , Cabeza. They
 cooked on two large stoves in the kitchen. I loved beign around everyone its was never a dull moment. Aunt Caremen treated every one with love .
When we were older and the Cabel family lived in Santa Fe Springs, we'd babysit the kids in the summer.We weren't that much older, but we watched them anyway. Aunt Carmen taught me how to cook rice, beans etc I loved her for that. We would go on picnics to the park ,Auntie would make the best fried chicken and potatoe salad. We'd all go including uncle Pedro.  I will miss her with all my heart


🕊 💐 Hey Nana I Hope Your Happy Up In Heaven. I Want To Wish You That You Were A Awesome GrandMother (Nana). You Did Good You Were Like A Invincible Tank. We Had Loving Memories. Rest In Heaven Nana. Miss You And Love You. 🕊 💐

i miss her very much and i remember always visiting and seeing Nana in her room watching tv and she would make me sit down with her and watch the show Monk. I then went home and watched i think all of it on my own:)

I did not write this poem. It was shared by an unknown person. On the very day we laid Carmen Cabel “Nana” too rest with her husband Pedro. It was January 4th 2019 over in Rosemead... Coincidence, perhaps? I like to think it was something more? I came home from the gathering that was held after the burial ceremony. Later in the evening I went on Facebook and their it was, this beautiful poem that seemed so appropriate!!! I hope it moves you the way it moved me; enjoy.... Share if you like💞

Nana 💕🌹
I love you very much I will miss calling you and I miss you very much.


Nana 💕
I miss you so much I want to see you again soon some day. I'm glad I had a great grandma like you, you are the best ever I will miss calling you all the time. I hope your doing better in heaven. I love you very much
Love Anthony 💙


Nana, 💕
I was blessed to have had you for a great Grandma. I loved going with my Tia Jessi to visit you, you were very special to me I thank you for my angel necklace. Our last visit Elijah & I made you braclets you liked his better than mine because he put blue in it & that was the day I found out your favorite color. I will always remember you, I love you & will miss you very much. 

Mom, I sure do miss you. You were such a strong link, we didn't even know how strong.  Thanksgiving and Christmas were certainly different this year. Yes, we celebrate and give thanks for our blessings, family, our lives and loves, our salvation, the birth of Jesus.  We missed you at our house and dinner table Mom. We loved serving you and treating you like the queen that you are to us. We enjoyed watching you delight in your holiday meal and dessert. I miss checking in with you to see if there was anything you needed. It was our mission Mom to make sure you had everything you needed.  I love you.

I really miss just checking in with you to see if I can get you anything, we miss taking care of you Mom. I love you. 

Even in death and remembrance; Carmen is this indelible presence, that will remain forever. After the church service. Everyone headed over too “ Cece & Duane’s “ for a pot-luck dinner, consisting of “Nana’s” favorite foods: KFC, Taco Bell, lemon meringue pie, beef broccoli over rice “Yum” 💜 and other goodies!! Lots of fellowship throughout the house. People sitting in Nana’s room, looking at all the pictures scattered about, just trying too stay close to her. Songs being sung in the living room. People reconnecting💕 It was a Beautiful thing💞 Her spirit was everywhere ❤️ Yes, Nana’s gone, but knowing that she touched so many lives. Knowing that she is Loved by so many people, makes me Believe, she is resting peacefully 💖.
She had this proud enduring quality about her; a quiet strength...

You went home to Heaven a month ago today Mom. I miss you so much. Gathering with our family this weekend was a beautiful thing. We shared the love you instilled in us to have for one another.  I pray that we will stay in regular contact with each other in the midst of our individual daily lives. You bring a mixed bag of emotions to me daily Mom, tears, sadness, smiles, laughter, joy, comfort, and mostly love.  Talk to you later Mom. I love you. 

Nana,
Im so greatful for the time God allowed me to experience life with you!! Youve imparted so much into my life. For example, I used to get a kick out of being in the car with you and some one would cut you off or go 🐌 slow. Hahaha. Or how i could call you anytime i needed to know how to make tortillas or chili rellenos. Ill never forget your Chirones in corn tortillas 😜.  I love u so much. See you again one day 😘.

Grandma was a spunky simple lady, I have so many memories of family get togethers at her home in Huntington Park. So many aunts, uncles and kids and always good food, ice cream and cake (so many birthdays). Grandma didn’t say much but she was always smirking or smiling. She made tortillas like crazy and they were so hot but she held them in the palm of her hand like it was nothing. She ate everything on her plate and scolded us for not doing the same. She lived in our home as teens and she must have gone crazy that’s why she blasted Mexican music 🎶. She loved soap operas & game shows and kept us in the loop, and her crossword puzzles, I was amazed by her little handbook. She shuffled around the house through the years, always sounded the same, “Hi Li” she said when I called alert and direct. She smelled fresh, had great skin, rolled her hair and wore blue or purple satin tops, that’s how I’ll remeber her, with fondness for her simplicity and routine, fresh scent and many laughs. She was close to her kids, grandkids and great grandkids even from a distance. You will be missed and you were well loved 💕 Jimmy, Lisa & Emma 🙏🏻

I know her as Angela and CeCe's Mom.  Whenever I saw her such as at the annual Christmas Brunch at our church she was quiet but had a genuine smile.  I know how much Angela and CeCe loved their mother and took good care of her.  I talk with Angela and know the closeness they had.  It is a great loss but heaven's gain.  And I'm sure Angela's Mother is talking to my Mom in heaven right now.  Praying for everyone's peace at this time.

I first met Carmen in early November 1965. I was courting her daughter Cecelia, who I had met walking home from school. I was an 18 yr old street kid who worked at MacDonalds. Didn’t even have an address, lived around.
She was dubious too say the least. Probably thought this dude will be gone in a month!! But I wasn’t! She would come home every night after work, and their I was. She was always sweet and kind. Ask how my day was, and tell me about hers. Carmen like to drive fast, took a lot of grief for it. I guess she just wanted too get home quick. I was so amazed how everyone got along with each other, so much love and affection. Eight kids in that little house!! I Loved being there!!
Cece & l married in 1966. We were expecting our first child in March of 67. Carmen & Pedro we’re so excited, their very first grandchild, think about that for a moment! First one, out of how many, and all the great ones, what a legacy she had. I think she was just as excited about the last, as she was about the first. Sadly Pedro died a month before their first grand baby was born: James Pedro Studebaker born March 8 1967. Carmen was elated, she doted over that baby, she was glowing!! And then Lisa Marie came 10 mos later, then David Wade 10 mos later. David was born at home in the middle of the night. I called Carmen, she was there in 10 mins, giving orders! Then Carmen(her namesake)4 yrs after! I didn’t see her much in the later yrs, but thought of her often...
    “I thought of you, and the years and all the sadness fell away from me”.

Ma...How I Wish I Was able to get out there to see you,To Hug You, Kiss You ,Tell You I Love You ,Laugh With You again,but yet..So Thankful  Your No Longer hurting. Your Now At Peace.I Just Stop and Think of All The Memories and it makes me Smile.The 4th was Roxannes Birthday, We would of been having our yearly disagreement. You'd insist that Roxannes Birthday was Dec.5,and Mico was Nov.4th,not the 5th. Id say ,but Ma..I had them!.You'd laugh and say I was mixed up.I Will Forever Miss the lil Mischievous  and Funny  things you'd Do and Say.Thats what Made You ...You Ma.LOVE YOU More Then Words Can Ever Express.Ma,Your Forever in My Heart.MissingYou and Thinking of You Day in and Day out.I Cant Wait For That Day When I Can  Hug You Again!,Say I Love You! and Give You Kisses!Ma.

Nana...it is hard to believe that you are gone. Though we knew this day would eventually come, it seems none of us were quite prepared. The memories and emotions piqued when I think of you are many, but all leave me feeling warm, amused, and content. You had a specific and special bond with each of us and we are all better for having shared our lives with you. So many funny and poignant memories from the days in Huntington Park...whiling away the hours with cousins picking plums, taking walks, slip n’ sliding and singing in the front yard. Those Christmas Eves were the highlight of my childhood...performing songs, menudo and waiting for Santa Claus! I remember the sense of mystery and wonder your bedroom held and how I loved looking at all of your things. I felt the same when you came to live with us. You tolerated me yapping your ear off, as I sat on the counter while you cooked and let me lay in your bed while we watched the soaps or wheel of fortune. I relish the memories of you peeking out the front window of your room in the Chino house whenever I came and went with friends or when you tsk’d at me or tried to pinch me when I did anything bad. I started using Jergens pink cold cream so I could mimic your baby soft skin and that smell will forever be embedded in my mind. I can still see your face when we would realize after dinner that you left a side dish in the microwave untouched! Your aversion to the dishwasher for years, silly giggle and great sense of humor are all beloved to me. Honestly, I could go on and on, but instead I will simply say that you will always be loved, always be missed and never forgotten. Your legacy of family and love will live on and your memory cherished all the days of my life. I am grateful you are no longer in pain and that you are resting in Paradise. 

Nana,

I miss you.  I miss your giggles, your sassy humor, your waster-of-nothing attitude (plastic, paper,  food, you name it!), your listening ear when I knew you thought I talked way too much - you often told me so;) , your love of anything frightening.  The last scary movie I saw was with you!  I remember covering my eyes and looking at you as you were enjoying your popcorn.  "Nana, aren't you scared?" "Ah, it's not real."  

You're the only one that could tease me about my weight and get away with it!  I already miss taking you here or there and listening to you remind me that you could drive yourself.  Then I would find a $5 or $10 bill stashed somewhere in my car because I wouldn't take your money.  

There are so many sweet memories going back to childhood I'll always have forever in my heart. Thank you for always making me feel like I was special to you and held a place dear in your heart too.   Thank you for loving me and my family so sweetly. Thank you for being my Nana.   I love you and I'll see you again. 

Love, Dez ( or Jess or Liv) p.s. I don't know why you mixed our names up so many times.  But you thought it was funny. I can see you giggling now...Oh, Nana:)

Oh mom, I miss you so much and am grateful that you left us with so many, many memories.  Ever since I was a little girl, there were scents that connected me to you.  There was your perfume, body lotions,  Jergens 3 ladies,  Downey, coffee, to name a few.  Hanging out in your room with you always gave me a sense of mom comfort and security. I could just lay on your bed while you sat in your chair, watch TV with you or doze off.  We loved taking care of you mom. We always wanted to make sure you had what you needed. I wish we could have always given you what you wanted but that wasn't always in your best interest, if you know what I mean you little rascal.  You made us laugh mom, we looked for that twinkle of mischief in your eye and loved when we caught it (caught you) and so did you. You enjoyed being playful.  I get it mom, it was tough to bounce back this last year from any set back you may have had and darn those headaches! They just wore you out.  You were pretty tuckered.  I'll continue to look at the clock everyday around 9am and wonder if you are awake yet so I can call and check in with you and later in the day think gosh, "I wish I had my landline" because sometimes the cell phone was hard for  you to hear.  Darn hearing aide interference. I wish I could hold you again, set your hair w/mousse, pick up a grande skinny cinnamon dolce' latte (used to be decaf but lately the caffeine helped your headache a bit) and tell you that I love you but you already know that. I'll be talking to you everyday mom, so until then or we meet again...All my love, Angi

Nana, my sweet Nana I will always remember everything about you, that beautiful smile, cute Lil nose & your loving caring ways! The way you smelled oh so good, I remember you came to see me when I had Ari you slept in my bed & I could smell you for a week after you had left I wanted to hold on to that forever nobody smells like you. I will also never forget the day Jess & I were with you & you had made us ham sandwiches, you were eating yours & realized it was just lettuce you forgot the ham in yours!  You were So funny! You always made me laugh. We will miss you so very much! I love you with all my heart & thankful you are not hurting anymore. Until we meet again I will see you later.

Nana, I will miss your smile, you laughter, your love. I will miss our calls and our weekly chats, but I find comfort knowing you are in a better place. You are no longer in pain and I wish you never had to experience it to begin with.  You will never be forgotten and I will always keep you close to my heart. I love you Nana. Until we meet again. 💕💙
