Thank you for the call. I was very sad to hear the news. Yes her & I were close and will miss her dearly. She's an extremely SPECIAL LADY. I will not be able to get thru this message without tear filled eyes. And I'm very sorry I could not fly home for this to be with you all. But you all ready know in your hearts that I am there in spirit and in prayer with you and your family. All I could think was God now has a "GOLDEN ANGEL" and we have a "GUARDIAN ANGEL" looking out for us next to "JESUS and GOD" in "HEAVEN".. Life is to short as it is, but I am grateful to have been blessed by having her and you all in my life. She will always been in our hearts and minds as we continue to grow in learn in life. There is no doubt that she is extremely PROUD of you, your family and exspecially her grandchildren. And I know you.. you will continue to make her proud. She raised you right. You are a good man. And keep up the good work. She was a women of honesty and intrigity. She made sure you alway were provided for and was a great business women. Very active and involved. Love to be in her garden and planting things and watching them grow. She was a happy person and pleasant to be with. She loved you very much. She was adventureous and enbraced her journeys. I will miss getting post cards from her travels and pictures of your children as they are growing up. That just means you have to pick up where she left off. And continue to send me post cards of your travels now and pictures of the kids as they grow. :) hint hint.

She is the like love and understanding in all things you do, and guidance when you need it most, to see your troubles through. I asked God for good health for you all, so your future could be bright, and faith to accept life's challenges and the courage to do what's right. To bring you PEACE AND LOVE with GOD'S BLESSINGS from above. My thoughts and prayers are with you always. I look forward to getting together with you all when I return.

Con el corazón lleno de tristeza hemos tenido que decir adiós a nuestra "Tía Buena", la que nos dio cariño, apoyo, conocimiento, la que nos hizo reír y nos llevó a pasear cuando éramos niños. La esperanza que nos queda es que algún día nos volveremos a encontrar con ella en la eternidad. Eso nos reconforta y nos ayuda a pasar por este momento doloroso. Gracias Tía Keti.
