Una gran persona que dejo su huella en nuestro corazon y por donde paso muchas gracias por estar para mi y mi familia en especial para mi sobrina
 Siempre la recordare con gran cariño.

Doña Elba, damos gracias a Dios por habernos permitido tenerla en nuestras vidas. Gracias por ser de tanta bendición para cada uno de nosotros. Ahora está en los brazos de Papá.  Siempre estará en nuestros corazones. ♥️ 
Familia Isaac Paniagua

I still can't find the words to express how I feel. You were my friend, my teacher, my helper, my second mom. You were so humble, loving, caring, and gave the biggest warmest hugs. It's going to be hard to look on the right side of me and see that empty chair. I thank God for bringing you into my life, you were truly one of a kind. I just notice we have on the same color in this picture lol which is more than words can say.  I will always hold you dear to my heart, you have gained your wings, until we meet again. I LOVE YOU! ❤️🕊🕊🕊

2 Timothy 4:7 
have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.

I will never forget the talks we had, thank you for your words of wisdom, your dedication, and love, I'm going to miss you.

Beautiful memories, the 4 Amigas. 🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️

Mujer de carácter firme,  sin duda con una sonrisa en tu rostro será la mejor forma de recordarte, recordaré los momentos que juntas atesoramos, tu amor hacia mis hijos y hacia mi, charlas acompañadas de café,  sonrisas,  abrazos, citas escogiendo el color que querías para tus uñas, historias contadas, oraciones compartidas, tantos y tantos momentos que vienen a mi mente y me permiten dar gracias a Dios por haber tenido el privilegio de conocerte.
Guardaré en mi mente aquella oportunidad de verte una última vez, de escuchar el tono de tú voz ya un poco frágil pero  con la suficiente fuerza para decir “Cada día veo el amor de Dios hacia mi”.   Mujer de Fé honraste  a  Dios con tu vida  y aunque aquí dejas un espacio vacío, ahora gozas el premio mayor,  Vida Eterna.  
Love u

My thoughts and prayers are with Elba’s family. Such a beautiful and caring person. I’m so sad to hear of her passing. Way too soon.  She brought joy to everyone. She will be greatly missed. May her memory be a blessing.  Janis Mikkelsen

As I sit here reflecting on our time together, I can't help but feel a wave of nostalgia and gratitude wash over me. Your presence in my life has been nothing short of a blessing.
Remembing those evenings before Holy Covocation filled with the aroma of your delicious cooking? The way you effortlessly prepared meals that not only filled my family and I stomachs but also our souls with joy and contentment? Those memories are etched in my heart forever.
And how can I forget the countless times you took care of the little details, like ironing my church clothes and letting me spray the Marc Jacob? Your kindness and thoughtfulness knew no bounds, and for that, I'm truly grateful.
It's funny how life works sometimes. I never imagined our cultures could blend so beautifully, but God had a plan far greater than anything I could have envisioned. You were not just an RBT you became family. Thank you foe loaning  Stephanie to me shes  became my sister in every sense of the word. But you knew that already LOL '"our Joke"
Know that you'll always have a special place in my heart. Our deep conversations, or simply your presence, you've made a significant impact on me, and I cherish every moment we've shared. Rest peacefully, and know that  i got Steph our bond is unbreakable.

Ms Elba I miss you so much. You made such a big dent in my life that was just full of love and kindness, and I will miss you for a long time. I miss that you would sit out there in the lobby by yourself, and I would come sit with you because I would get put out of class for being in trouble. You would try to get me out of it. I loved the fact that you treated me and my sister as your grandchildren. The fact that I could have somebody like you in my life is just such a big thing to me. I miss you so much, but you’ve done your duty, and you did it well. I will miss you, and I will always love you. I love you, Miss Elba. From Hezekiah

Plegarias, abrazos, besos hasta el Cielo mi querida amiga , siempre la recordare asi como usted hera , siempre con una sonrisa , alegre y noble , gracias por todos esos momentos felices.

I can’t believe I’m actually writing this right now….. ms Elba and I have the best grandma and grandson relationship I could ever ask for, she loved me soooo much, I almost started to question it lol. You were one of the most sweetest and loving people I ever met, you loved everyone and gave your last if you had to. I loved your rice and chicken, matter of fact everything you cooked for us, I’m going to miss you sooo much, I even had the pleasure of doing your eyebrows lol it really warmed my heart. You have birthed amazing kids with the same heart as yours and I’m sure they are going to carry your legacy on, thank you for all the pouring you did into me and my life. You really hold a special place in my heart and forever will, I love abba❤️

En el poco tiempo que compartimos , pude ver a una mujer llena de gozo , tu risa y personalidad era tu estandarte , fuiste una persona que dejó huella en mi vida por tu tenancidad y como amabas a Jesús.
 nos volveremos a ver❤️

Amiga,solo quiero recordar esos bellos momentos cuando en un afán de superación y ser mejores seres humanos nos concedió.Dios el conocernos estudiando por allá por el 2009 y lo logramos nos graduamos con nuestro AA, luego todo fue mágico nuestra amistad creció y fuimos cómplice en travesuras como niñas durante eso meses de estudio,fuistes responsable de muchos de mis días alegres con tus ocurrencias superamos, buenos y malos momentos como lo que éramos y seguiremos siendo unas verdaderas amigas, estar a tu lado era sinónimo de pasarla bien y chistear,me quedé con las ganas de verte y hablar cosas qué nos quedaron pendientes pero se que esto no es una despedida es un hasta luego.Vuela alto mi chama …,..

Elba … tu bella sonrisa, mirada cálida, tu disposición para amar a otros , y sobretodo tu amor por Dios fue evidente en tu vida. Tuvimos la dicha de conocerte y compartir parte de nuestra vida contigo. Nunca olvidaré como me recibías cuando llegaba a la Iglesia y los abrazos fuertes y apretados que nos dábamos. Fuiste una persona que, cuando yo no era fácil de amar, me amo y me diste aliento. Me enseñaste mucho amor… porque amabas a Dios por sobre todas las cosas. 
Antes de partir, volvimos a compartir un abrazo, besos, y palabras de aliento. Volvimos a compartir De Dios y de Su gran amor para con nosotros. 
Es un momento que nunca olvidare y que siempre le agradeceré a Dios. Fuiste una guerrera para el hasta el final. Que orgullo haberte conocido. Que orgullo para todos tus seres queridos. 
A tu familia , nuestro más sentido pésame. La esperanza que tenemos en Jesucristo nos garantiza que esto no es una despedida final sino un hasta luego. 
Estás regocijandote en los brazos de Dios. Paz y bendiciones a toda la familia de nuestra parte. 
Te quiero y NUNCA te olvidaré❤️🙏🏼

A beautiful soul has gone home to meet our Lord. My fondest memory of you is the love you had for your daughter. You always had some a bright smile and just an absolute joy to be in your presence. Please watch over your family and give them the strength to go on without you. You will be missed by all who knew and loved you.

Dios es muy bueno al permitirle a mi familia y a mi conocerla y disfrutar de su sonrisa que no faltaba, haber servido juntas en niños cada fin de semana traía una enseñanza hermana querida se que está disfrutando y descansando ya en la mejor morada que existe y este no es un adiós sino hasta pronto Le amamos en El Señor querida Elba. Besos hasta el cielo.

Siempre la recordaré con esa bella sonrisa descanse en paz doña
Elba

Nuestra relación no era como cualquier otra, usted misma me lo dijo una vez, nosotras éramos como almas gemelas, era ese amor que era tan fuerte que superaba la distancia, y que a lo mejor no hablábamos todos los días pero aquel amor y cariño nunca desvanecía y en nuestro encuentro era como si el tiempo nunca hubiera pasado. Y así será siempre mi Ara,  su lugar en mi corazón nada ni nadie lo puede cambiar❤️‍🩹

Conocerla fue lo mejor que me pasó en la vida. Cada momento que compartimos juntas era simplemente perfecto, lleno de sonrisas y mucho mucho amor. El día en que la conocí marcó un antes y un después en mi vida y agradezco a Dios porque me permitió crear muchos momentos que atesoraré en mi corazón por siempre y para siempre🩷

Awww hermosa mujer siempre recordare tu alegría esa risa que contajiaba ,te recordare con mucho cariño mi querida Elba vuela alto mujer valiente 🙏🙏❤️❤️

Que Dios la tenga en su eterna gloria mi querida Elba. Nos veremos pronto el cielo 🌹

Dear Ms. Elba You were a dear-hearted person; you were kind, funny, loving, and overall an amazing person. You were there in the hard times and the easy times; you were there for us all, and we will miss you very, very deeply. We are all going to miss you deeply with all our hearts.
From Ethan

Sintiendo mucho la perdida física de Elba, una persona muy cariñosa, paciente  y especial con todos, gracias a Dios por darnos la oportunidad de conocerla y compartir con ella y su familia en varias ocasiones. Vuela alto Elba, te recordaremos siempre con esa sonrisota sincera. Fortaleza a Stephanie y a todos sus familiares 🙏

Tia, words will never be enough to express the gratitude that I have for you, they’ll never be enough to express my love for you either. 

You were the most selfless, loving person. Words fall short to describe the incredible person you were. 

A second mother to me, who loved me and cared for me like one of your own without expecting anything in return. God knew exactly what he was doing when he led me to you.  

It’s been the honor of my life having been loved by you. 

I love you, always and forever. 

Your Beba

Gracias Dios por el privilegio de compartir momentos inolvidables al lado de esta hermosa mujer, que en todo momento reflejo tu amor y tu bondad. Te amo. 🥰 ❤️

To: Ms. Elba 

Hey Ms. Elba, we miss you and love you. You have a beautiful soul. You are in a better place now with God. You always gave us love. I’m happy that I got to know you, we had great memories with you. 
We used to sit in the lobby and spend hours talking. You’ve helped everyone with certain things, you had a positive mindset. 

Love you Ms.Elba,
Wendy

I know I just met you and all  but while I’ve been around you you have been nothing but nice to me. I don’t know everything about you but I know one thing for sure you are very nice, sweet and kind and I could always count on you to help me with  my problems when I need help. You always helped me and gave me feedback. I really liked that and I wrote this message to tell you that I really love you!…~Jelicia

Dear Mrs. Elba I hope you rest in peace. You must have had a good life because of all the good people you had around you. Even though I was here for a short amount of time, I’m happy and glad that I got to know you. But you are in a better place right now. A place where you get to see God and other angels, but may you rest in peace🕊️ From Gerarada

Dear Ms.Elba, when I first heard u was gone I was very sad but I know I gotta be strong for you and i know that you is in a better place in heaven I love you Ms.Elba and you will be missed very much but this is not a goodbye this is a see u later.I LOVE YOU❤️

Dear Mrs. Elba, I want to thank you for always being there for me and my family. I will always remember and cherish the precious moments we spent together, the good and the bad. This made me realize how quickly life can go and how short it is. I wish you and your family the very best. You were a friend, teacher, mother, and grandma. You were also a big part of Good Shepherd Academy. And we all know that the school will not be the same now that you're gone. Rest in paradise and in peace. 
Love Simeon

Dear Mrs. Elba Although we haven’t known each other for long, I saw the smiles you put on people's faces. This news hurts a lot of us. I will keep you and your family in my prayers, and I will always love you. You are now in a better place with God. It really made me think. Life is not really long, so I have to do everything I was taught so that I can live a good life. When I was told you were no longer here, I felt really bad, but I just want you and the family to know I am here for all of you. I pray you guys get stronger, and once again, I love you all. Love Angelo Eptimor

Dear abba, I want to say you were very sweet and loving. You mean a lot to me and my family. I could have never imagined life without you. You were a lovable person. The day I found out you were not feeling your best, I knew God had you. You brought so much joy and happiness into people's lives without you even knowing it. My mom would come home every day and say I loved Ms. Elba. That's my girl, and I would laugh and be like, Yesss, momma ofccc, and you made the best food. I will always remember that forever because Auntie Stephanie and Mommie's food is not as good as yours. You were the best cook. You always made sure I felt that I was loved and cared for by you, and even when I got in trouble, you were always there to let me know that I am still beautiful and smart and will be someone someday.
From Nevaeh one of your favorite Granddaughters

Miss Elba You've been the best woman to me. You were a nice lady; because you were here at GSA, it became a happier place. I wish you were here, but now you are in a better place, and we will love you for eternity. You will forever be one of the keys to GSA and our hearts. We will love you forever and ever, and I miss you very much 💙.
Love, Marlin Delva

Dear Elba I'm not sure what to say, but I hope you knew and could feel how much I cared about you. Our family—me and my sister—has grown closer because of you. We all miss you so much. I can't tell you how badly I miss you. You were a mom and a teacher. At the same time, your house (the school) is full of love, support, and joy. I'm thinking about you every day. I'm remembered. Talk to you and see your smile and kindness. I know you watch over us and always have our backs, which I'm really grateful for. I'm going to miss the way you talk, what you do, and giving everyone advice on how to behave. I always believe in you because you're a great person. I'm happy and thankful for what you do for us. I'll love you forever, and get well soon. I just wish God would explain how great you are. You've taught me so much about how to love and how to live my life. You've forever touched me, but my heart will ache. I see you on a better day. From Woodly

Gracias por todo el amor que me diste, 
Gracias por tus consejos 
Gracias por tú tiempo Por tu paciencia y  Gracias a Dios por tu vida en vida y se que ahora estás viviendo por la eternidad con Dios y eso es lo que me fuerzas a pesar de que ya no estarás con nosotros 

Te amo con todas mis fuerzas mi segunda madre 🕊️💕

Dear Ms. Elba I will always
I love you in my heart. I was only here for six months, but you were always different, and I will always love you. You are in a better place now, no matter what, and you and your family will be in my heart. I will pray for you and your family.
When I was sad, you always told me, Don’t be sad; you were just wasting your energy. Now that I know it was truly a good message, I promise I will do better. You will always be loved. You gave me a lot of food when I was hungry. You always had my back. I’m going to have your back. RIP. MS. Elba,

Hay personas que llegan a nuestra vida como un regalo  especial del cielo, que te tocan tan profundo el corazón y se quedan  ahí por siempre.

Los recuerdos en nuestra mente son la evidencia de que alguien marcó nuestras vidas, se quedan ahí guardados en nuestra memoria. Hay muchas cosas que vienen a mi mente cuando pienso en mi tía Chelly; siempre sonriendo, amando a los suyos, luchando hasta el final. Mientras Dios me permita ahí se quedará guardada en mi memoria, mi querida Tía Chelly.

Many people will miss you because you had such a noble heart🌹

Elba was always a very sweet lady upon every interaction. Her presence will be dearly missed but never forgotten. We are saddened by her passing but comforted by the fact that she in the LORD's presence.

Tia, gracias por su legacia y amor. La recordaré por su tenacia hacia la vida y por su inclusión hacia mis hermanas y a mi. Gracias por enseñarme que en realidad hay buenas personas en esta vida. Y la dicha de poder llamarla parte de mi familia será un honor propio por el resto de mi vida. Que descanse en paz. Amor por siempre 🤍

Mi primis bella, te amo y amaré por siempre.  Compartimos muchos momentos súper lindos que quedan grabados en mi mente y corazón.  Dios te ha llevado ya a su hogar celestial en donde ya descansas y sin duda que estás disfrutando de su maravillosa gloria.  Has dejado un lindo y especial legado aquí en tus hijos que se extenderá en tus nietos.  Siempre fuiste una mujer muy alegre, sincera, amorosa, genuina, servicial y sobretodo, con un corazón muy noble y todo eso mi amada prima…mi hermana, lo extrañaré siempre.  
Mi hijo y yo te amamos y te mandamos todo nuestro amor hasta tu nuevo hogar celestial.  Ya descansa mi bella que aquí en la tierra, celebramos lo maravillosa que fuiste con cada una de las personas que tuvimos la bendición de conocerte y amarte.  Sigue con esa sonrisa hermosa que siempre resaltaba en todo momento, esa sonrisa que no se borrará de mi mente.  
Te amo y extrañaré primis 🕊️
