Mom!  Words can never express the sadness and broken heart I feel.   Never in a million years did I think you would leave us so soon.  I will never forget all the times you supported and helped me out, you know what am talking about.  You took care of Desiree from the day she was born, your first grandchild and you still were very concerned for her well being.  I missed the times we would go shopping and be out all day, dad would tell us "I thought you guys forgot how to get home."  I know you wanted to be with dad, I could see the sadness in your eyes, now you are together again.  Mom, I feel your and dad's presence around me and I have been fortunate to see you in my dreams.  How I wish God had allowed both of you to spend one more Christmas holiday with us, and dad bringing his tamales.  Keeping coming to me in my dreams.  I will NEVER forget all the love, and morals you instilled in me.  I love you mom, rest easy know we are all doing as  best as we can having both our loving parents in heaven.   I thank my lucky stars I have two beautiful angels watching over us.  XXOOXX   

Grandma, I don’t even know where to began. You were my second mom. You raised me and did everything for me. You got me ready for school & ALWAYS brushed my hair. I’m sorry for always being in a bad mood in the morning. Haha I’ll always remember the bunny pancakes you would make me before school. You would ask me if I wanted to walk to school and I loved our walks to and from Cooley Elementary. You mean everything and more to me. I promise to never forget you. You have such a special place in my heart no one can replace. I still can’t believe you are gone... but I know you fought for so long and you were so tired. It isn’t fair for me to keep you forever. This isn’t a goodbye... this is I will see you later in Heaven. I love you so much Grandma. XOXO

To my dearest mother: I’m sending you and dad a great big hug and kiss. We miss you both so much!!  Thank you mom for being the best mother ever! You weren’t only my mother but my role model. I always wanted to be like you! A good daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother and god willing great-grandmother. As long as I can remember like that picture at the beach when I was like four, of me standing  behind you trying to pose like you! I’ll try to continue to make you proud to call me your daughter and cherish all the beautiful memories. Thank you for loving all your children equally.  For being a sweet mother in law to Chuy, a loving grandma to Jesus, Jessica and Jeana. A wonderful great-grandma to Matthew, Austin, Josiah, Ethan and Derek. We’ll make sure they never forget the beautiful great-grandparents you and dad were. . Till we meet again, God has you in his arms, I have you in my heart!

My Everything.....I cannot begin to express my gratitude for everything you did for me. God blessed me to be your daughter and I thank God he choose you to be my mother. I will miss calling you and dad everyday and stopping by every now and then during my lunch hour. You taught me to be patient and strong. Rebecca, Sara and Torito will be forever grateful for having such a wonderful grandmother. Every time we would FaceTime your great-grandson Urijah you would always say “Mira que chulo”.  We will always speak of you and dad to Urijah. 
Mom I will miss taking you to your doctor appointments, we would talk so much during those visits or when I introduced you to the “Pink Drink” from Starbucks. Oh and the chocolate cake pops! You loved watching Jeopardy and wheel of fortune. Couple of years back at one of your appointments you told me sign for me, I looked at you in disbelief and you said “I know you signed some teachers notes! You sign just like me! And I do. I love you and dad so much that in time you two will put my broken heart back together again. 

Grandma, there aren’t enough words to express how much I miss you and love you!  I will keep all our beautiful memories in my heart forever. You taught me so much but most importantly you taught me unconditional love. You were the foundation of our family, you and grandpa made such a beautiful close knit family and every time we get together I know you both will be there with us still!  We have two beautiful angels in heaven now that will always be watching over us.   Thank you grandma for everything you always did for us all!  Neither you nor grandpa will ever be forgotten, you both will always be in our hearts and thoughts! We love you forever! 

Grandma, I remember when I was younger my favorite days of the week were Fridays and Sundays, because those where the days we got to see you and grandpa. Thank you for everything you would do for me when I would stay the night with you and grandpa. Going to church with you and after mass buying the gorditas. Yummy!  Thank you for all the memories from you letting me play with your hair to watching a novela. 😢 Thank you for always being at my special events from birthdays, first holy communion, graduation and many other events. Thank you for giving me my nickname “guerenche”. I’m going to miss hearing that, you were the only one that Called me that. 😭 Thank you for being there the day I was having your first great grandson and for all the great advice on what to do when I was having trouble with any of my boys. Thank you for all the love you always showed us!  I wish I could’ve had more memories of you and baby Derek Cruz, but I will always cherish the ones I did get. Grandma I miss you so much! Grandma I want you to know that you were never ever a bother to help. It was an honor and I enjoyed being called to go do anything for you. Everyday I wish you were still here but I know you and grandpa were always together, I’m sad but also happy knowing that you are no longer in any pain and you are happy. I know you had to go be with your handsome soldier.  I LOVE YOU FOREVER GRANDMA!! 😘😘😘
