Our dear Mom was a wonderful mother. She was the rock of our family. Mom had a pure heart and a deep passion for speaking about her Jesus. Mom was a prayer warrior. She loved her family, friends, life, enjoyed laughter and dancing. She loved her sisters and brothers from the church and her favorite time was sharing ministry with them. She adored spending time with our family from the valley and loved talking to family members on the phone. Mom and Oscar enjoyed traveling and seeing many beautiful places. Mom's favorite holiday was Thanksgiving, she cherished seeing our family and our extended family gathered together.
We want to thank everyone who shared a part of our mom's wonderful life. Mom will be greatly missed, but never forgotten. Our memories and love for our mother will be in our hearts forever.
