I dont have a memory about your Mom bcus I didn't know her personally, but seeing you girls with her on FB made me feel like I did. You know how hard it was for me seeing my Mom go right in front of my eyes last year.....I know how you're hurting.  I'd always tell you on FB to enjoy her and to love her bcus one day may not be again.  She is resting in Paradise now and you have a beautiful Angel following you now. Love what she was, Love what she gave you and Love ALL her memories.
May God keep you all blessed and give you strength during this difficult time🙏❤

Cousins, my deepest condolences, I’m sorry I couldn’t be with you today.  I have many memories of your beautiful momma . My Tia Julia always making us laugh, she was the life of the party at all the family get togethers. Respected for being an amazing woman that never gave up. Made sure  her family got ahead, and  successfully raise all her children to be something great! Taking us in and helping our family is something I am thankful for. Growing up I remember the drives to  McDonald’s,  the gas station  and   the supermarket , always turning into an adventure full of laughs , and holding on as she zoomed in an out of  LA traffic ! There’s so  many memories and moments that I will cherish and always remember her by.  She will be  greatly missed and forever in our hearts.   Que  dios me la bendiga Tia , descanse en Paz.   

 Maria  my condolences to you and your family, You are all in my prayers may God give you the  strength to get through this difficult time. Thank you for sharing so many beautiful memories of your mom over the years,  Seems like she was a strong, amazing women who will be missed.  🙏



Ana, Thank you for sharing her story with us, knowing she lived as her smile indicates is heartwarming. Sending You and the family our deepest condolences and prayers. 

Lisa, Hailey, and Manny Haro 

Tomorrow we will lay you to Rest In Peace- please know that I love you and you will always be in my heart ❤️ 😢

What I remembered most about your mom is her smile, straight face and laugh. Her smile when she greeted me.  Her straight face because I was there almost everyday lol. And her laugh because I did not know Spanish  therefore I always had someone to translate lol.  Oh how she had a smile that could light up a room and her laugh I can still hear it when I look at her picture. 

To all of you...I send my deepest condolences and a virtual hug.  I know what you are all going through and I am here for you.
I love you all!



Our most sincere condolences to you and your family.  I can't even imagine the pain and suffering you are all going through.  May God grant you that peace and love to allow mom to rest eternally and go to the gates of heaven.  You were all great, loving and supportive family and for that she is eternally grateful.  Cherish all the beautiful memories and know that she will forever be by your side.  Your guardian angel is watching over all of you.  

Thank you for allowing me to be part of mom's  celebration of life. 

With my much love and respect, 

Lucy Lara and family 

Missing you 😔 everyday ❤️ You were the only person to understand me 😘 forever in my heart ❤️ 

I remember my grandmother always laughing. She'd joke and take jokes with my dad when we'd visit on weekends. My mom loved her so much, grandma had a good and interesting life story. She gave birth to two sets of twins! I remember my dad teasing her about going out dancing many years ago. You will be missed by many grandma. Until we meet again.. 

Momma was beautiful in her younger years as well as her older years love you! Will miss you mom ❤❤

Our deepest condolences to the Ortiz family. Many prayers of peace and comfort to you all.

I want to let you know how sorry i was to hear of your mom's death.  I think that the loss of one's mother is by far the saddest event of anyone's lifetime.  The thought are no doubt overwhelming that nothing ever will quite be the same.  I know your faith will comfort you and your family to find the peace and strength that comes in knowing that a loved one has gone to their eternal rest.  Please let me know if there's something i can do to somehow lessen the pain you feel in your heart,  I will always be there for you. 

This was the last time I saw you mother. You were so happy to see me as you always were. You always had a smile on your face no matter what you felt in your heart. You gave all of yourself to your children and to those around you. I miss you so much, but find comfort in knowing you no longer suffering. You are reunited with your brothers, sisters and parents who you had missed so much. Until I see you again, momma. I love you.

Dear Maria & Family. I am so sorry for your loss and know that I am praying for you and your family during this difficult time. All though its a time to mourn know that God is with all of you and he will give you that comfort and peace that only he can provide to continue moving forward. God Bless.

Dear Maria,

May God keep your mom in peace.  I’ve been praying to God to give you and your family strength, please know that I’m deeply sorry for your loss.  I know how painful it is to loose someone you love and loves you so much, words are never enough.
I truly hope you find comfort in all the beautiful memories and she will always live in your hearts.

I'm missing our chats momma!  What I was making for dinner and you always finished by saying what spices to use.  Not to be alone but rather have someone to help and care for me. How young I looked yet would ask my age and respond with "well how old am I?" We would always laugh at your reaction 😄 you are the strongest woman I've known mother.  RIP my lovely guardian ❤

My heart and prayers go out to the Family of Julia Ortiz, I couldn't imagine the pain in your Hearts ,my condolences to all of you! My memory of her was Every time she would see me she was always smiling at me and wondering who I was ,then I would tell her I'm with Ana , and the look on her face with this great smile just made me feel so appreciated, I'm glad to of meet your mother ,may you R .I .P Julia ! God bless you All! 


Missing you 😔 so much ❤️😢 words can’t describe the pain 😢 

Love you momma and thank you for being the best mother ever! we were truly blessed - until I see you again mommas... ❤️🙏🏼

How could I begin to thank this wonderful woman for giving me the most beautiful family.  My heart aches for the loss of her here on earth but I know she is rejoicing  with our Heavenly Father. I'll miss most of all the little phrases you often would say. "Don't put your purse on the ground or you will lose your money." "Vamos a la .99" and my favorite  " No tengo un cinco"  until we meet again may you watch over us and guide us to be our best in your honor. 

Cisco, 
My heart goes out to you and your family at this difficult time.
Sending prayers 🙏 
Patty Wynder.

My beautiful mother - always full of smiles ❤️

Momma-- your spirit will live forever thru your children, grandchildren and all whom loved you dearly.  I miss you so much but I know you are in a better place now and my love for you will never leave - until I see you again momma....I love you forever.

My wonderful mother always smiling, she was pure love and joy.  I know only strength and courage when I think of her. Mom drove everywhere and knew many  cities in LA County! She would take us to Jack in the Box every Friday when she got paid to have ham sandwiches then I landed my first job there who would have thought?! Momma asked the cashier if they were hiring and hooked me up! My wonderful mother I'm missing you every minute of the day ❤❤ Momma had her home in Mexicali and managed to drive herself there. We have fond memories of her wonderful home 🏠 my thoughtful mom always made sure she cooked our favorite foods. Caldo de res,   enchiladas rojas, pollo frito, frijoles y arros. Gosh I miss her cooking! Love you mommas pero un chingo, life here will never be the same without you in it. You are my rock forever and ever till I see you again ❤🙏

She was a beautiful women, mother .grandmother and great great grandmother.. I remember your mother as a hardworking woman always providing for her family.. May she rest in peace and always look down on her family with pride...Our deepest condolences to all of you.. The Benitez family.
