To one of my best aunts, who I adored so much. You were a ray of sunshine each time I greeted you and hugged you. You were always a happy woman. I always thought that if I make it to heaven, that angels will be similar to your personality. I will miss you Tia. I love you and will miss your hugs, kisses and smiles from you. Love you.

Con gran afecto comparto la pena del vacio que deja la despedida de este ser tan querido a todos sus hijos, alentada a la vez por esa fe que nos da la seguridad de vida eterna en la union con nuestro Creador.
