Aunt Mere, I can’t describe the loss that I feel.  I have hurt a lot when we lost Anita, my mom (within a week), Ama and Bobby.  

All of that hurt was something, but today is a complete different hurt.  You were my last thread and now you are gone.  

You became such a large figure in my life.  You leaned on me and I leaned on you more.   

We spoke regularly and made each other laugh every time.  I don’t know if I was funnier than you, but our circumstances are certainly the things that books are made of.  

I will whole heartedly miss you so much.  You became my rock and the stability that I needed after we lost my mom.   I know that I will never be able to repay that debt.   I luff you for every ounce of it. 

My heart is broken and I wish we had more time.  

With all of my heart, Velma. 

Today is not a day of Sorrow but a Day to Rejoice with Loving Hearts in a Celebration of Life for our Aunt Mary. 
Uncle Mike, our prayers are with you and the whole family for today and always. 
We are proud to have had the love and generosity  from our Aunt Mary, what a wonderful example she has shared and thought us our whole lives in loving and helping each other. 
Are hearts are filled with praise knowing you now Aunt Mary are in our Heavenly Fathers Arms.

A Prayer with Love,  
"Loving Lord, how grateful we are for the many joys in life that You in Your grace have bestowed on us in such abundance. Thank You for the simple things in life that we so often take for granted,  for the many joys that have been given to us by your Son Jesus.
 
Thank You for the joy of family and friends, for the seasons of life and the many phases of happiness and sadness that we have grow from. It brings love, warmth and healing. Thank You for the joy of singing praises to You, and thank You, Father, for the Lord Jesus, Whom is the fullness of joy. In His name we pray,
 
Amen.


I am so sorry that I didn't get to say goodby to you Mrs. Lopez, Mrs. Lopez and I worked together at M. D. Anderson for over twenty years and became very good friends.  I considered her more than just a friend more like my second mother.  It really is a great loss but I guess now you are with your loved ones. You will be greatly missed and may your memory be a blessing.
