Momma lived a happy and vibrant life through good times and bad times. She was a prankster, loved to fish, loved to play bingo, fed many friends her fabulous Mexican dinners and above all, she loved to dance, it was her favorite passion. Momma and Daddy made many sacrifices to make sure we were raised to the best of their abilities and their efforts paid off well, they were proud of us. She will be remembered by many. I love you momma, keep dance’n.
