My mom and my grandmother showing my mother’s students how to make ice cream.

Oh grandma how I miss you so much.. the girls bring you up every day and talk about how much they miss you too, especially my Leiyani she was the biggest grandma’s girl. Thank you for everything you did for them. Thank you for always there for me when I needed help or  had no where to turn you always had open arms and doors. You never said no or turned your back to me no matter what I did or how I’d act, you never saw me as anything less than your granddaughter that you were still proud of. I’m going to miss sitting on your bed with you just yapping your ears off and making you laugh til we were in tears from laughing so hard. Im going to miss you venting to me about anything. I’m going to miss combing your hair and doing your nails because you loved getting compliments on them and needed a new set every 2 and a half weeks. I’m going to miss you asking me to send you pictures I’d take of the kids because you were always so proud to show them off and brag about them to your friends and nurses. I’m going to miss going to hobby lobby and home goods just because we were bored. I’m going to miss even just bickering with you over the dumbest things because you swore you were always right and I just had to prove you wrong lol. I’m going to miss going back to visit and walking through the door seeing you in the living room as the kids ran to you excited. I hope you know how much we loved you and how much I appreciate every last thing you did for me. I will cherish our memories together forever ❤️

Ol’Lady, 
My dearest mother. How I miss you and how you will live forever in my heart and mind. I will miss all the times we would just sit around and laugh make jokes as you would comment on my weight and I would comment on your frailness.  All the things you sacrifice for me growing up and all the headaches I gave you. here are some things I wish I had a chance to tell you before you were gone… I love you with all my heart. I hope you are proud to call me your son as I was always proud to call you my mother. I am the man I am today because of the things you taught me and now I get to teach my children. I will miss our late night phone calls. But like you told me the last time we spoke, “ you just need some rest” now you get to rest.  mom you were always busy trying to make sure everything was ok for us, no need to worry about us we will be ok .  Until next time…

Dear Cabrera Family,
I have many fond memories of Maria during her time as an Instructional aide in the Cutler-Orosi School District.  She shared several teaching strategies that lead to students success in their classes and life.
My condolences to the entire Cabrera Family ... Maria will be greatly missed.  GOD Bless Each of You.
