Family Quiroz
On behalf of Benito Quiroz and Children we would like to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers.
Our Mother; Ellen R Quiroz, was a devoted catholic as was her family before her.
Our Mother had many titles;
Elena, Ellen, Boss, George, BIG MOM, Mama Grande, Big Momma, Lena, Helen, Ve'ja and MOM, and Tia.
God has returned her to her heavily father and family.
Our Mother was an amazing person, supportive, strong leader, she was the foundation of our family, she was solid, she was a mother figure to more than just our immediate family, she was a teacher, she taught us to love one another and others, she nurtured us as siblings and as individuals.
Our Mother always called our dad the'' LOVE OF HER LIFE", AND THAT HE WAS FOR 54-1/2 YEARS.
Our Mother and father told us how they sat on a bench after they were married...They didn't have any money; they were poor and unknown to them at that time, their love and marriage would be blessed with 5 children, a job, a wonderful home, grandchildren, many great grand children and many more wonderful family members and friends. They were rich in life that God provided them with. what a wonderful journey from THEN TO NOW.
As we say goodbye to our Mother in the physical world we promise to you, that we will stand together as one, Love one another, be there for each other and we will always remember that you loved us.
Mom you have done you're job, its time for you to get a much deserved rest.
You have gone above and beyond what your soul and heart could have ever have been asked of. So in this we promise to always take care of our Father. We know you will also be watching over him. You will be proud of all of us. We will continue our lives for our family because that's what you taught us.
Until we meet again, we love you Mom!!!!
The Quiroz family would like to THANK YOU for being a part of our Mother's life. Thank you for your continued prayers and thoughts. Thank you for loving us and mostly thank you for loving our Mother.
TODAY OUR MOTHER HAS GAINED HER BUTTERFLY WINGS.
