I love you Mom, miss you so much!!
Love Vin

Hi Mom, it's been to long sense I last wrote you. So many things have changed in my life. Now I'm fighting to stay  alive on the way you and Dad raised me. I find it very hard to live without the both of you to be there fore me when I run in to problems I can not find the correct way out of.  Mom, I still pray every day for you, Dad and about thirty people each day.
Around  April 7, 2021, I met a Catholic women of whom now I have fallen in love with. I'm thinking about giving her a ring, but I am scared. I ask you and Dad to guide me spiritually to help me find peace of mind and make the right choices.
Love, Son Vin#8

Hi Mom, Vin here!
Hi Vin there! 
How's dad doing Mom? He is doing very well Vin.  Dad started a whole new marble Business up here in Heaven. He and the new company " Cloud Marble" are lining all the back sides of the clouds with Travertine-marble that way the clouds will pour out more rain with organic clean water for the crops down below.
Mom, that sounds really cool!
Please let Dad know that I will be coming up there soon to help him! I miss the both of you so very much😔
Mom, I am still doing what you asked of me and that was to keep the family together. Last night from 7:30 to 8:10 pm , I said a Rosary for you, Dad, Jeanne,Pat, Uncle Don, Jeremy,  Tom Breen's mother  and Gloria's mother.
So Bill, Katy, Declan, Zoe,Marie,  Tommy and Fred joined with me to say the Rosary.
I she'd tears for you Dad & Mom!
There are so many items on the ranch that make me think of the both of you every day. I know your proud of me because the both of you said it to me before you passed away.  Twice a year at Dad's passing date and your passing date, Mom. So twice a year I get the family together and we say the Rosary😔
Mom, it hurts so much in my heart not to hear you and Dad.
I love you and miss you with all my ❤️Heart!
✌️❤️🙏

Each time someone writes in and says something about my Mother, tears fall from my eyes because I am over wellmed on how many people loved my Mother and how many lives she has touched. I thank all of you from my Heart.

Hi Mom, Vin Here!  Hi Vin There!
Mom, sense you went to Heaven I cry for you every night and day. My tears are runny down my face as I write this. I love you so much Mom. I am mad at God for taking you away from me. If you were to pass away than why didn't God take you in California? You were so far away from me. Easter and Mothers Day was the last time I heard your voice say to me " I love you Vin and I am so Proud of you" Mom you are why I held on to Faith in God. You were and still are my reason to keep my Faith. Mom, you are the Greatest Mother any son could have and I love you so dearly.
Love Vin

My heartfelt sympathy to Joan's family and friends.  She was a generous and powerful spirit.  I was blessed to have known her and Fred for even such a short time through the establishment of the Dominican convent in Loomis.

Mom, I light this candle for you as a sign of my Love for you. You are the Greatest Mother in the whole world.
I miss you so much Mom.....
Love Vin.

I am very proud and blessed to have known Joan Cordova. I worked with Joan, Fred and Sr. Mary Samuel on the original designs of the Dominican Sisters' Motherhouse in Loomis, and my family and I shared a few dinners with Joan and Fred as our work progressed.
Joan's stories of Fred, her children, the sister's, and the life she made in Southern California, and here in Granite Bay, were very inspiring to me and my family. Joan is a wonderful example of how strong God's love is and how much good one person can do in our time. On behalf of the Freitas Family, please accept our condolences, prayers, and faith that Joan and Fred are with our Lord in love and peace.

We will miss you dearly, Joan.  All of the parishioners at Saint Joseph Marello, the children at the Rock and the Sisters.  We find solace that you are with our Lord whom you loved so much.

What a joy it has been knowing Joan.  She was truly one of God's treasures.  The warmth she showed to us as in-laws was unsurpassed.  We still marvel at the wonderful family she and Fred produced.  Each of you must be extremely proud of what she and your father accomplished during their stay here on earth.  I know your mother was extremely proud of each of your accomplishments.  Joan was a fine, fine lady, and it radiates through each of you.  Praise be to God for giving us the opportunity to be a small part of her life.
