Grandma,
Its probably something everyday that reminds me of you. Life will not be the same without you. However I would like to thank you for always being you. You stayed the fighter that you always were til the end. Its hard knowing I wont be able to hear your laugh anymore. Just know that I loved spending those summers with you and Grandpa in Ceres. Thank you for everything. <3 We love you very much.

I was blessed to have known such a very special lady not only was she my friend she was my mother in law and I loved her very much.We shared many good times together.We laughed,cried and prayed together.Thanks for the great memories.I will always love you and forever carry you in my heart.

Hello. I am really sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Love Celia Ortega-Vasquez socorro's daughter =)

Garcia Family, we are very sorry for your loss, cherish the memories of your beloved mother.  One of the best ways to honor her is to stay united as a family.

Remember that her eternal life has just begun and she is now resting in peace. 

With lots of love,

Celina V. Garcia and Family

Lorrie, Chris and Family..We are so sorry to hear about your loss. We remember meeting your mother a few times and she was always a very friendly and inviting presence to spend time around. Even though your pain continues we hope it brings you peace that hers does not and she is with the greatest and most loving of all. You are all in our thoughts and prayers in this hard time. Love to all.

Celia,
I knew little that morning, 
that God was going to call your name,
in life I loved you dearly, 
and in death I do the same.
It broke my heart to lose you; 
you did not go alone, 
for part of me went with you,
the day God called you home.
You left me beautiful memories, 
your love is still my guide,
and though we cannot see you,
you're always at my side.
Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same,but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.  I will miss you with every breath I take.  My condolence goes out to Celia's family and friends.  I pray that God will give us comfort and strength during these hard times. I love you my sister, Genoveva

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in your time of sorrow. My Gods present be a comfort a you and your family. Through him may he help ease your pain and sorrow.

God Blessed me with the opportunity to meet Celia when I was in High School. Her healing hands touched me in a time of need, and her heart helped heal mine when I was dealing with family issues. She knew God and lived His word, and it was so felt all the time! I believe she is very happy now, and at His side. I pray for all of you that loved her so much, and know that she is comforted by God, and you can be too. God bless u all! ---Lala

This is not easy news to digest.  We are so sorry for all of you.  We've been welcomed at family events and it was always such a hoot to see everyone together- there's a lot of love there.  Lorrie, Chris, Vera, Oscar, Yolanda, Junior, Priscilla, Jason, Noah... and the rest of this huge family that we love.... we are praying for you to find peace and comfort in the fact that she is truly at rest (or at least we say that... she's at the party of the year in Heaven right now!) She is in a beautiful place, free of pain and full of a love so great we can't even comprehend.  Hugs to all of you.

I wish you all the best at this time of grief and hardship. The world has lost a true inspiration within your family as her light touched a lot of lives. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

God bless you and your family.  My prayers are with you.

My prayers are with you and your family.  God bless you.

My beloved Tia, I have so many memories of you.....
As a kid I remember our yearly visits to San Jose, CA. During our family reunions I loved to be around the adults, you were the absolute funniest! You had everyone laughing with stories of your youth and reminiscing with family and friends. Growing up people would say how much I resembled you, even people I didn't know, I want you to know I always felt proud to be told I looked like you! I will always remember your words of kindness and wisdom, you always told people exactly how you felt about them. You made sure that we knew if you were in agreement of the decisions we were making over our lives. I will hold memories of you close to my heart forever... Rest in peace my beautiful Tia and watch over us from heaven. I love you Tia! To my Tio Eduardo and cousins, you're in my prayers for strength and peace in your hearts. You were blessed with an outstanding wife and mother. You have all those beautiful memories and words spoken by her, hold them close to your heart to get you through this very difficult moment and know that she watches over you from heaven.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Celia always welcomed Rick and I into her home for the holidays. I have never met a more generous giving person. I will always remember her laughter and warm spirit. We always felt so welcome in her home. She was the most amazing cook and I  will never forgot all of the amazing holiday meals she cooked for everyone. May God Bless Her....she will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with your family in your time of grief.   My all the fun memories come back to you now.   All my best.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

Dona Celia, Aunque nunca la conoci siempre escuche hermosas cosas de usted, de como siempre fue una Mama y Abuelita amorosa y excepcional, y como fue y sera querida y recordada por todos sus seres queridos. Que en paz descanse.

Dear Tia, I don't know how to put in words how I feel about you. I have so many memories of you growing up. One of my favorite things about you was hearing you laugh. I loved how you told stories & you always had everyone rolling with laughter. You always told me how much you loved me & you always showed it. I hope you knew how much I appreciated & needed your love no matter how many miles apart we were.  I will never ever forget you. I am very proud to say that you were my Tia & you will always remain in my heart. I cant wait to see you again so you can tell me all your stories about heaven & we can laugh together again. 
I love you.

Doña Celia, mi corazón se hundió cuando me enteré de su muerte. Usted fue siempre amable cuando nos conocimos en las reuniones familiares. Recuerdo con cariño cuando nos reunimos en el restaurante Firebirds mientras se celebra el cumpleaños de los gemelos hace unos años.
 
Que el Señor te bendiga y te guarde.
Que el Señor haga resplandecer su rostro sobre Ud,
y tenga misericordia de Ud.
Que el Señor te muestre su rostro sobre Ud,
y te conceda la paz.
Que su luz pertpetua brille sobre usted y
Que descanse en paz!

Dear Tia, Although I did not see you as often after you relocated to Arizona I always kept you in my thoughts. I was saddened to hear of your illness and had hope you would overcome that illness like you did so many other obstacles in your life. You were one of the strongest people I know and will always appreciate the kind words and wisdom you had for me on my wedding day 5 years ago. I know that you are now at peace and in Gods Graces. Rest in peace Tia and Thank you for all of the great memories. You are forever in my thoughts.

My Beautiful Grandma my heart is broken... How will I go on without?I'm going to miss your smile and beauty. You showed me unconditional love and you were my number one supporter. We shared stories laughs hugs and kisses together. I know it will hurtfor awhile, but I know your no longer in pain and resting in peace. I am going to miss you so much. I know you will always be 
around me.. I love you grandma your my Angel.
