Until we meet in Heaven, you will always be in my heart! You were the best Mom a girl could have; such a quiet spirit, but so much wisdom you had. I am successful today because you taught me that knowledge is power and encouraged me to never give up. You have earned your wings and your emerald and diamond-studded mansion. Enjoy your rest in Jesus' arms. You have certainly earned it! I love you Mommy!!

What amazing pictures of such a wonderful and beautiful person Mrs Alvarado was. Looking back on her life growing up, you could see the love inside her and when you were with her and Mr. Alvarado the love surrounded everyone they touched. They are now in Heaven together watching over their wonderful kids who loved them so much!!
