"Ti Ana, I am so sorry things had been hard for you after T Manuel passed. I know you where lonely. I have good memories at grandma's and you laughing and smiling. You loved Jesus saviour church and the Holy Ghost Feast. When you two couldn't drive anymore giving you rides to the feast the ride home you both seemed so at peace.I have tons of pictures of you both when you where younger smiling and happy all together with the whole family. I will always remember the good times. I will miss your cooking also you made great meals. When I would stay with you for the feast you always made that flat meatball dish it was special of you and thoughtful. Rest at peace Ti Ana You will be home with Grandma, Grampa. ,uncle Tony, my mom and dad and T Manuel. The Holy Ghost will always be there for you. Tell them I send my love tell Father Cardosa I said hi. Love, Jean Elizabeth"
