Love you for always, Tia! Thank you for always keeping an open welcoming door to your home for all my life.

My dear Tia & Tio welcoming me into the world with so much love.

No more pain, tears, or sorrow for our dear Sarah. I envision my precious Aunt as a rare, beautiful rose who sprouted, blossomed and flourished more admirably as she journeyed through this world. Rejoicing and trusting daily in her Divine Creator and most gentle Gardener. As a young rosebud, Sarah was a stunning natural beauty to behold, yet her true inner beauty was displayed even more profoundly as time progressed. Thinking on her latter years, I remember her smile appearing softer, and with each visit, her eyes twinkling even kinder and wiser. I always admired her deep rooted confidence in who she was and what she believed. Naturally, her outer form began to fade, yet her innermost being became stronger with each passing day. During our last conversation in November of 2023, I saw that youthful spark emitted once again as she spoke of past cherished memories & life experiences… even describing the different hairstyles and clothing she enjoyed. Loved her styles! I was so happy that my beloved elderly Tia and I could still enjoy a “girl chat”! What a blessed final gift she unknowingly gave me. Beyond grateful I was able to visit her on Christmas Eve and pray over her one last time. The outer may have been fading away, yet her inner spirit was fully blooming and prosperous as her faith was being renewed daily with compassion, grace and abounding love. I can only imagine the beautiful crown of life 👑 our Darling Sarah has received for fighting & enduring til the end. She will surely shine brilliantly forever in her finest personal style of all ! More than a “Queen” conqueror through her personal Savior & Lord Jesus. May she rest peacefully in a Heavenly Garden of gardens and in our Hearts of continual gratitude of loving and being loved by Sarah Cruz ~ Ferreira ~ Valenzuela 🌹

“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. “ -James 1:12
