To my Mom, Tios and Tias,

Good mothers hold a special place in their hearts for their children and most children hold a special place in their hearts for their mothers. I’m sorry for the hole that you now have. The values and lessons that mom’s teach their children make mom’s immortal as they influence lives over generations. Now that she has passed, she lives on through you. I know you are hurting right now but I pray that God grants you strength at this time, and that he gives you comfort that is as good as a mother’s touch.

Tia Angelina and Tio Antonio, thank you for being there for Avo all these years, the family is so grateful for all you’ve done for her.

With Love, Susan

Love you Avo! You will be missed. Our deepest condolences to my mom, Aunt’s and Uncles. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Elsa and Greg
