Dear Compadre Arevalo and Family,

Words seem inadequate to express the sorrow felt by the loss of our beloved Comadre Santitos. The beautiful memories Mrs. Santitos created of long ago family gatherings and picnics during Easter and many summers are imprinted on our hearts. When we hear her name, we recall her beaming smile and heartwarming moments that remain vivid and unforgettable. Sending a gentle hug your way to comfort you and to let you know that you're in our thoughts and in our hearts today and always.

Peace, Prayers and Blessings,

Rolando, Claudia, Juan and Norma
