Vovo, you were the light in many peoples lives. I am so blessed that I got to spend the last 25 years with you as my GREAT grandmother. I will never forget all the times spent with you at your house while drinking 7up and eating pizza. All the countless christmases, thanksgiving, and other family gatherings you came to and blessed us all with your presence. I miss your laugh, your singing, your jingling gold bracelets, your soft hands, and your kisses. Iâll never ever forget you vovo and I can only imagine how happy you must be getting to be with Voo Voo, T Manny, & T Irene dancing away while all your doggies are right there with you. I pray that you watch over all of us and protect us too. Come visit me in my dreams. I love you so much. -Justine

" My Sister Irene where do I start, well I loved her very much, but sometimes I wanted to strangle her! She was my oldest sister and she never let me forget, all kidding aside I am happy she is with mama and papa and her awesome husband Manny, she is peaceful now, no more anxiety of the unknown! Rest in peace we love you and will keep you in our hearts forever!! "

I am so sorry. My condolences to all of you. I still remember when she came for a visit and brought me back to California for a visit. Tia Rene made it a wonderful trip. I love the way she always loved to sing. God bless all of you and may she be in peace.
