Love and sweet memories of a caring, loving friend from many years ago. Rest peacefully Sarita. You are a very special soul.

So sorry to hear we  have lost this soul and far too early in life.  You  were a beautiful woman and I have many found memories of you and our gatherings at Amma and Afi's.... my dearest thoughts and prayers to your  children and those you loved and loved you. ... your cousin Laura xxoo

Saritas love for her children and family was infinite. She was one charming soul who could make you feel at home and welcomed with every visit. My heart is breaking for her family and her beautiful children. See you on the other side.

Although we spoke only a few times, Sarita had an on-going presence in the Ojeda family she had married into.  My husband Jed shared many funny stories of his time with Sarita, and how she encouraged him to develop his musical talent.  Once, by passing on a guitar to Jed that was originally given to Lance, but went unused.  Thank you for that Sarita!  I'd also like to thank her for blessing the world with her beautiful children; Loren has been a special part of our lives and you can see Sarita in that beautiful face of his son, Julian.  My condolences to her immediate and extended family.  Wishing you new horizons Sarita.

In the beginning, Sarita was my friend, both of us graduating high school in the class of 1974.  She then became family when she married my brother, Lance... to this day, she will always remain family.  Her influence on me and my family go without measure. Everything from music, art, literature, style...you name it, she was there.  I have a fond memory of going to rock concerts with her, when some how or other, we would end up backstage with the artists.  What charm !!! You could throw her into a room full of strangers, and, after a few minutes, have them all eating from her hand.   She was a beacon of light for so many people who were lucky enough to have known her.  She will truly be missed... To Loren, Noah, Stasia, Celina, and the rest of her extended family, we send you our sincerest condolences and all our love...Godspeed Sarita.

I Love you Meep Meep. 
I love you Loren, Noah, Stasia. Forever and ever and ever.

OUR LOVE TO LOREN,ANASTASIA, NOAH, CELINA AND ALL THE REST OF HER FAMILY... I ALWAYS LOVE YOU...

Sympathy  to Jesse, Loren, Noah, Anastasia and family for the loss of Sarita.  Arlon says 'good-bye' Meep Meep...
love from her dad.

Recollection

The flowers we sent are a small token of my memory of Sarita who could brighten any room not only with her sparkling personality but also by her ability to create fabulous floral bouquets from flowers she would pick on an afternoon stroll around the neighbourhood.

My love and deepest condolences to Loren, Noah,  Anastasia, Celina,Jesse, and the rest of the family. I have wonderful memories of Sarita, and spending some of my formative teenage years with her. It's difficult to express in words  - but what I can say is that she touched my life in a very positive way, and she will be missed.

Our love and sympathy to Loren, Noah, Anastasia, Jesse, Celina and all of Sarita's extended family. We send you our deepest condolences.

Our deepest sympathy for Jesse, Celina, Loren, Noah and Anastasia during this difficulty time, words can't express the sadness we feel for your family dealing with the death of Sarita. Saying goodbye to somebody we love is heartbreaking. Al and I will always remember the time we had with Sarita. 
Look back on all the good memories you had with your sister and mom and smile remembering she loved you and her children.  Keep hold of the happy memories of her gentle soul.  May she Rest in Peace.

She was always my dear little niece.  I loved her all her life and I always will.  She is always in my thoughts.  I'm so glad she phoned me as often as she did and usually had a cute little joke to tell me.  Here's one:  she said, "I was born at 2:30 in the morning, you know, tooth hurty, time to go to the dentist". I wish I could remember more of them. She also gave me so much excellent medical advice.  She was interested in so many things.  She's the one that got us started on McCoy pottery and all those beautiful collectibles.  I've still got some of that stuff, it's very hard to let go of.  She had very good taste in clothes and dressed very cleverly.  She'd just stick a pink rose at her waist or throw on a fabulous scarf.  She was artistic.  I'm very sad she's gone.  I miss you MeepMeep.

Remember when i was 6/7 years old living in Burbank California guess it was 1968/69 when she would come and visit Meep Meep and I use to go to a small shop just up the road, corner of North Naomi St. to buy some candy, we use to talk a lot, and i still have this vivid video in my head of her giving me a peace of her bubble gum stick and being so happy....last time a saw her was in 79 in Manhattan New York at the hight of her carrier her and her husband took me sight seeing around the city.......She was the sweetest girl in the world...yes she really was. RIP Meep.

My beautiful cousin Sarita, you and I were not only family we were friends. Although I had not spoken in many years I found my self searching for you . What I would give for an afternoon with me listening to your stories and situations. You Sarita were an inspiration to me you always will be. Until we meet again , I love you cousin.  Your journey has just begun.

It is with great sadness to hear about Sarita's passing. Though I have not seen her in a long while, I remember the day she was born. She was Mor-Mor's first grand-child and how proud and excited we all were. She was a little doll, and she grew up to be a beautiful woman. I will keep her in my heart always. Jesse, Celina, Loren, Noah and Anastasia, I feel your sadness and your loss. 
God bless you all.

                      Aunt Karin
