The family would like to send a heartfelt mahalo to the Maui Memorial Medical Center PCU Team, Hospice Maui, and the extended Valdez ʻohana for all the love and support shown during this difficult time. Special mahalo to Iwa and Lily for their guidance and helping us through this difficult journey with so much care and aloha. Your kindness and presence have truly meant so much to the entire ʻohana.

Our beloved Nanay will be deeply missed, forever loved, and always remembered by all whose lives she touched through her love, strength, and aloha.
