From Sonny

A woman of love, understanding, patience, and faith brought me into this world. That woman was my mom, being her first born there was and believe there is still a connection that can't be broken. For no matter where I was she would find me. She knew what emotion I was going through even without seeing me. She would call me and ask me "why am I feeling sad" or "what's happened that's made you so angry." I love you mom. I know you will always be by my side. I am so happy that you're with dad in heaven with God and all his angels. I miss you but know that one day we will walk hand in hand in hand.

From Annie

As you hear about my mom you will hear how much we love mom and there could never be a better mom. That is how we all feel about our mom's. Mom was the hand that held us, took care of us when we were hurt, and made sure we ate and had clean clothes. She was the one who would say when and how we would be disciplined. I remember mom telling dad she carried us for 9 months and we were her kids so only she can give permission when he could spank us. Dad was the fear and mom was the judge, but in fact dad was the adviser and mom kept us in line. Mom made sure we were never deprived of anything on our birthdays, holidays or everyday events. That is why we loved her so much.  Mom was the strongest mother I knew.  She would make you laugh when you were sad, and would come up with the craziest of stories or jokes. There are so many songs she would sing when we were babies. Life with mom was the most wonderful life I could ever have. Always in my heart and in my life. I just wanted another year of having her here with us, but then again next year I would say the same, in fact we never want to lose our mom or dad, they are the root of our tree.

From Juanita

Mother of my life, I love you and adore you for showing me everything in life. Thank you for all your hugs and blessings. You taught me to be good and polite to every person around me. I love you and dad. Some day we will be together as a family again in our heavenly house of the Lord.

She was a great mother to all of us. My favorite childhood memories of mom are when we played games together and when it rained she would play in the rain with us. Mom, you will never suffer again because you are with our Lord. Mom, you will always be in my heart.
