This was he last picture I took with the 2 San Diego couples that were very dear to my mother’s ❤️ and dear to mine.

To the Acosta’s May God bless your family with STRENGTH to get through your mom’s passing, FAITH to know that she is now home with God, and LOVE so it will make the bonds of your family stronger than ever. 

Rest in peace auntie Cora. Please give my mom a hug for me.

Cora lived her life according to her heart. It was full of an abiding love of God, church, family, friends, travel, dancing, laughter, adventure, community service and working to give back to others both here and abroad. She lived an honorable life which included a few matches with Lady Luck at the casinos. She would leave smiling and her purse full of her rewards. Her love of cruising around the world with Ernie brought them great rewards and lifetime memories (Well documented by the photos posted by her family.) She loved babysitting her beloved grandchildren. Sharing family stories, food and traditions full of love, fun and laughter. She enjoyed working and would do the best job possible to support the core values of what she was tasked to accomplish. She was a team player. She rarely complained and just got the job done in a stellar manner. Cora was my dear friend and co-worker. I will cherish our time together and how inviting she was to share family gatherings with me too. Ernie and family I am so sorry for the sudden and immeasurable loss of our dear and sweet Cora. My heart breaks for her loss. I know she is without pain and at peace with our Heavenly Father. May God's grace and healing be bestowed upon you and your family during this time of sorrow. Much love - Ceci

Sister Cora (2nd from R) at Dennis & Jo’s 35th wedding anniversary renewal of vows 2019 at St Charles Catholic Church.

Cora was a very special person.  She was part of the support staff where I worked.   As I reflect back,  her quiet presence was a reflection of her deep and intense spiritual life.  It was truly a blessing to know her and to work with her.  I am deeply sorry for her family's loss.  

Aye ya yai! Auntie Cora’s favorite expression! She loved to tell stories of her grandkids ! She would show me videos of all of them! I will always remember at the end of our conversation..she would say aye ya yai!! Until we meet again , See you Later Auntie Cora!

I’m so sorry for your loss. Cora was such a gem! I met her over 20 years ago when we worked together in San Diego, and enjoyed visiting her again over the years whenever my travels would bring me back to the area. I will always remember her beautiful smile and upbeat attitude! Much love to her family!

To the Family and friends of Corazon Acosta, sending you our heartfelt condolences and may she rest in peace. Prayers from Annie and Melissa Nazareno 

Sending our Condolence & Prayers

To Bro Ernie & family, 

Brod, we are sad. Sad is an understatement really.
When we heard, Sis Cora was  gone, my heart (Emily’s)
was so shock, numb, heavy.
I couldn’t believe it.. 

So I prayed so hard to lighten it.. Evening zoom rosary
helped me to accept that she is gone.

Now Dcn Jim & I are sending our prayers & hugs.
We’ll remember Sis Cora in our daily  evening 
rosary at home.

Sis Cora,  “Rest In Peace my good friend! May the Angels
come to greet you & bring you to the Presence of the Lord.”

O Lord, Into your hands, 
we humbly entrust our sister Cora.
embrace her Lord,  with your tender love; 
& deliver her from every evil.
Let perpetual light shine upon you Sister Cora.
May you rest in Eternal peace! Amen”

from the Aquino Family
Deacon Jim, Sis Emily & sons
