To my mother in-law you leave us with many memories. You told me that you were sadden at the fact that you could not show the emotion of crying because of dry tear glands today manny cry for you to make up for what you could not do. I will always remember all the many happy and funny moments you gave us. I thank you for my wife named after you Aurora who in many ways is like you kind and caring and like you a good cook always making sure no one goes away hungry. Another great quality you passed to your family was to be a hard worker at home and at the work place. I thank you for being good and a kind mother in-law to me your son Ruben.
