Mrs. Rivera always made me get a smile on my face when I would see her because of all of her sweet words and gestures. She always made me feel welcomed and loved when she greeted me. She will always be remembered as a sweet and extremely caring woman. She is resting in a better place and she no longer has to suffer in this harsh world we live in. 

Our deepest condolences for your lost, prayers are with you and your family. ❤️

Elvia, all our condolences for the loss of your mom. I know that there are no words to ease a grief as deep as the loss of a mother,  but please know that we pray for her eternal peace,  and that we keep you and all your family in our thoughts in this difficult time. - Ruben and Sarah

My family and I will always remember Mrs. Rivera for her vibrant personality and for how loving and caring she was for her family.  She would always have a smile on her face that lit up the room, and a presence about her that always made us feel welcome, and despite her age, she never shied away from a good time. Mrs. Rivera will be greatly missed, but her legacy continues with her family, and she will always hold a special place in our hearts.

For the short while that we knew her, she was special to us for the love she showed us every time we met.   We will miss that twinkle in her eyes. 
"He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."  Revelation 21:4
God bless you and keep you strong during this time.

Everyday I would come to the home where she was staying she would always say hello to me and was always very kind to me . I will never for get how welcome she made me feel. I am grateful to have know her. She is in a better place now and she will watch down on us and protect us and say can. 

Abuelita dejaste un bacio muy grande en nuestros corazones pero se q ya estás con papá Dios y se que ya no te duele nada fuiste una abuelita ejemplar y amorosa te llevaré siempre en mi corazón ❤️
