I remember when Tuna was young, she wanted to learn the words to the song  ‘How deep is your love’, by the Bee Gee’s, so there we were, with the cassette tape, hitting the rewind, forward and  pause, in order to write down all the lyrics. She learned the song and would sing “And you may not think Ina care for you”. That was her version. Anyway, I have and will always think of her when I hear that song. Tuna, Ina always care for you! Love, Aunt Polly ❤️

Family was everything to you we love and miss you so much 

Irene or "Tuna" as i knew her was one of my moms bestest friends. All my life her and her children were around and i love them. You see tuna is not my biological aunt however she and her children have become family and that will never change. I admired my tia and mom's friendship so much. They gave me the best example of what a real friendship should be. They lived through some of the toughest years together and always helped each other. My Tia was the most loyal and crazy friend my mom had. She always made me laugh and scolded me when i was being mean to my mom. She had the BIGGEST heart and loved her children greatly. I am so sad that i could not be there today to see her however i will be pouring one out and lighting one up especially for her. The last thing she said to me was that she was proud of me and that she loved me. I will never forget this, thank you tia for being so good to my mom/family for always staying close and for giving me life long friends in your children. They are great friends because they had a great example. Prayers for my dearest friend brianna and the entire reyes family. I am so sorry for your lose and i will always be here for you guys as my tia was there for us. Rest in Paradise Tia. I love you always ❤️

Sissy I have no words on what to say, I love you and have always thought of you and worried about you. I know your in a better place not suffering anymore your heart is not broken. You were my big sister I always remember as a kid when you moved in with us how fun you were and loved to sing to me and Melinda all the time. Love on a two way street by Stacy Lattisaw I use to think wow I got a cool sister that sings to me. When you left after dad pass away I was hurt cuz my sister wasn’t there anymore to make us laugh and sing to me. You told me so many times don’t ever leave me sissy and here you are you left me why we won’t ever know. But I know your in a better place with Dad, and Thomas and ruby and your mom. Your probably having a good time laughing and making up for long times. Kiss daddy, Ruby and Thomas for me. Even though I was always far from you I always wanted the best for you and the kids. I love you Tuna. 

Love your sissy Love

Two families brought together, made one big crazy loving family. How I wish we can go back to this day, everything seemed so perfect at the time. things werent always perfect but we all had eachother & now two of you are gone & life will never be the same without you guys. But you guys will forever live in our hearts. 🤍

You were so happy & proud to be a grandma to your first grand baby. I still remember the day we told you I was pregnant, you didn't want to believe us cause Brianna would mess with you all the time on april fools & tell you I was pregnant lol but when it finally came true you were so excited & always called to check on me. You can see the happiness in this pic. Once Dahlya was born you had your pair & you always gave them so much love & spoiled them to pieces. They always knew they can have it their way at your house. baby Matthew said he's going to miss holidays at your house the most, your over the top decorating & their gift bags they always looked forward to the most. I know they're gunna miss you so much & it breaks my heart that you won't be here to see them grow up, but I know you'll always be watching over them. Like baby Matthew said "I have an angel grandma now so she's always gunna protect me".. 

You were dahlyas favorite person . You knew how to make her laugh and knew everything about her . You helped me raise her since she was only a few hours born . You stepped up and never left me alone and never left her alone . You would always tell her to ignore me every damm time when she would get in trouble she knew your gonna back her up no matter what troubles she would get in . All the little purses or any little makeup, toys , clothes or especially you making her so pita Everytime she would ask you . Everytime her birthday would come you would go all out Everytime & get her everything literally . The littlest small toys at dollar tree or 99cent store you always brought it to her . In your words “ baby grandma haves something for you” you attended all her school conferences for me while I worked even went to her open house at school . Literally did everything for me . We’re gonna miss you so much mom ..

For 5 years Mom 
You spend dahlyas birthday with us every year all the time 

I’ll love you forever, and always cherish all the memories we had, I’ll miss you calling me saying “mija what are you doing” or “mija I got some bomb ass bud” if you know you know, I’ll miss doing little things for you like taking you cigarettes or a slurpee but it had to be from the certain gas station haha, i love you forever, & will miss you dearly ladyyyy ❤️

always down for any & everything. Irene forsure lived her life to the fullest & loved to have a good time 🫶🏼

family/friends , we love you forever & until we meet again Irene ladyyyy ❤️

I love you so much & will miss you forever ladyyy ❤️

Tia you loved taking pictures with Snapchat filters ❤️

The last birthday we got to spend with you.. I hadn't seen you so happy since we lost Thomas. That day you were so happy and you looked so beautiful in your bright red hair. I will never forget this day.. ❤️

You tried to be the best grandma to your grandbabies. Always spoiling Layla with oranges or ice cream pops when she would visit you, she would run straight to your kitchen & you would let her have anything she wanted lol 

Your favorite out of all your kids . Your protector who was crazy just like you my brother Thomas my other Angel you both are so complete now I’ll always miss you both 😔

The craziest funny and most caring people ever in my life 🤎

My two angels only I wish life worked to where I would’ve known you two would be the ones I lose .. 

All you ever enjoyed was a good time with your loved ones 🤎

Mom , 
You were my other half that kept me whole . 
You taught me everything I should know about life 
One important thing is how to be independent you knew everything . I want everything back. I know how much you missed your sister but especially your son . I know how comfort you are now . The craziest lady I have ever know . 

You loved your dancing you enjoyed your music only you knew from back in your days . You loved your hometown San Fernando with all your homegirls . You were the light of peoples day mom 

Tia I miss you everyday and I love you so much when my mom passed you were like my other mom , it's hard that your gone now I feel like I have no one. I miss you everyday that passes but I know your up there with  my mom celebrating I wish you never left. 

My tia was my best friend but now my guardian Angel 

Jacob misses you so much . He misses your yelling & you would be so proud to see how strong he’s being mom . You were everything to jacob your last baby . He does everything you would yell at him about hahaha 

You felt complete this day . You had all you babies with you . This was one of the Christmas you enjoyed a lot . No matter what you still felt complete having all your kids with you .. you opened your gift & loved all your gifts and cherished them a lot . When I say cherished you literally never like to open and use them hahaha 

Mom, 
You were with me throughout my whole pregnancy at my darkest and scared moments . You showed me what motherhood is . You stepped in as my daughters other parent . You helped me raise her since she was born. You stayed with me by my side in the labor and delivery room as I told you I was scared and needed you . You satisfied all my cravings . You gave me everything as I was pregnant . You showed me how to be a great and amazing mom . 

Mom, 
You stayed with me throughout my whole pregnancy. You satisfied my cravings . You comforted me with taking my fear away from giving labor . You step in as my daughters other parent your grand baby . You stayed by my side in the labor and delivery room as I told you I needed you cause I was scared … I’m so blessed and happy to know you seen me become a mom and taught me and showed me about motherhood ..
