“Es difícil para mi escribir estas letras. Difícil porque me acuesto y me levantando empapada en lágrimas, sin terminar de asimilar que ya no estas a mi lado, que ya no te volveré a ver más, al menos no en esta vida. Hoy veo hacia el cielo deseando poder sentirte, pero no logro encontrarte. Solo logro ver las estrellas, porque en el fondo de mi ser se que tu estas entre ellas. Eres la constelación mas bonita y mas brillante de todo el universo, y creo que precisamente por eso te fuiste. Alla en el firmamento, necesitaban una sonrisa mágica como la tuya para alumbrar el mundo que últimamente esta demasiado apagado sin ti. La vida es muy injusta, muchas veces hablamos sobre la muerte, decíamos disfrutemos, amemos, pero se nos acabo el tiempo. Ahora estas más viva que nunca en mi pensamiento pues te paseas por ella como si nada pasara, en forma de recuerdos y anécdotas que vivimos juntas. Recuerdos que duelen, pero que a su vez me hacen sonreír sin percatarme.  Ojalá y estuvieras aquí, para secar mis lagrimas y darme esa paz que siempre me diste al calmarme y decirme que todo estará bien. Gracias por ser como fuiste; alegre, cariñosa, siempre dando lo mejor de ti en todos los aspectos. Conseguiste todo lo que te propusiste y también lo que no, por eso te admiro. No te voy a mentir, vivir es muy complicado, pero vivir sin ti se me es casi asfixiante. Solo te pido una cosa; Espérame, algún día te alcanzare. Mientras tanto, Siempre estarás en mi corazón.â€

A Holy Rosary will be held at 4:00pm and a Memorial Mass will follow at 5:00pm at St. Mary’s Catholic Church. A second Memorial Mass will be held Sunday, April 28,2019 at 6:00pm at St. Luke Catholic Church, and your presence is greatly appreciated. Services will conclude.

Funeral Services have been entrusted to Sunset Memorial Funeral Home and Crematory. 657 Springmart Blvd. 956- 350-8485
