Mom, 

We laid you to rest June 24th, next to Dad as you always wanted to be.  It was a beautiful service.  Your great-grands blew bubbles as we walked to your grave site.  Your granddaughters sang a version of "Oh happy day", loved ones near and far came to say they final farewells.  I'm going to miss your physical presence, your "did you?" greetings, and your motherly advice.  We're all going to be ok.  Rest in Paradise, Mom.  I love you with all my heart.

"Glorita"

Dear Auntie,
I could never forget our family gatherings which will always be special to me. I remember we had plenty of food, lots of laughs, and also loved watching the big kids dancing in the living room! During these times together, I learned generosity and kindness. Thanks to you, I'll always know what this kind of love looks and feels like. I'm blessed to have had you in my life even for a short while and will always keep you dear to my heart. Until we meet again in heaven.

I am missing you so much right now Mom♥️Can’t help but cry silent tears when many things remind me of you!
I am missing your continual love for Rob Sr. & I, your Grandsons & Great Grandchildren, your great sense of humor, your laughter, how you make me laugh, the many stories you have shared with me, your FaceBook comments and shares, Messengering with you, the countless “I Love You’s,” how you have taught me in turn to be a loving Mother-in-law to my daughters, our mahjong games, sitting around the kitchen table chatting with you, coloring your hair, spending time with you at many doctor appts over many years, going out to lunch, when we lived with you in Oakland, when you lived with us in Union City & in Lathrop, how we had dinner parties for every fun thing like Mardi Gras, Valentines, St. Patrick’s Day and on and on, cooking you many meals, definitely miss your cooking, our many family parties since I was 18 yrs old, our many camping trips, day trips, our birthday cruise, our same day birthdays together (we have never missed one birthday celebration together for 40 yrs),  our holidays together...I will miss YOU as a part of everything in my life!  Mom, now comes the hard part of missing someone so special who gave so much of herself...until we meet again in heaven...You know that I miss you so much and I love you to infinity♥️ 
Forever, Deb

    Mom’s strength was always her family, she Lived for her children.  Loving everyone in her special way.  
Her memory, her articulate conversations,  her wonderful humor and her ability to bring many together, will never be forgotten.
  She enjoyed family gatherings.  Playing mahjong whenever there was an opportunity.  

She was a true social butterfly, gracing us with her smile and laughter.  Thank you Lord for Gregoria.  Love you mom.
