Love and miss you so much grandma. I couldn’t bring myself to write anything at first because it didn’t seem real, and although your physically not here anymore I can still feel your strong spirit all around us. I’m so grateful for our time together, and for all the consejos you gave me. You never judged me, no matter my choices and always said “be yourself, & don’t ever back down”. The best part is My kids got to experience the love of their great grandma, they looked forward to seeing “Old Yaya” every weekend and that’s priceless, something I’ll never truly forget. I wish we could just go back in time for a little bit, just to relive so many great memories grandma. Heaven is so lucky to have another angel up there ♥️
-Natalia/Nelly [in your words]

It's bittersweet that you are gone, I still can't believe it. The only solace I have is  that you are now with Papo,  Theresa, and Jovany. You lived such a long life Grandma and you'll continue to live in our hearts and in our memories.  I  love you Juana!!!!!
