Our heartfelt sympathy to the family!! You raised a beautiful daughter (Maria) that I have been blessed to know!!! Over 20 years ago you opened your home and allowed some of her friends to meet at your house and enjoy some amazing fellowship at your home. We will be praying for your sweet family through this time of loss but grateful to know that you knew our Lord Jesus Christ!
