Primos,
Please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of your mother and I wish I was close enough to pay my respects to all the family. Victoria was always the best aunt a girl could have had. She was always smiling and joking; she was a joy to have around whenever you guys came to visit us in Brownsville. In the past few years, it was comforting to me to have been able to visit with her whenever I was in Brownsville and I will certainly miss those visits.
Mary, you were an exceptional model for me and my family on how to care for an aging mother. We can all emulate the wonderful manner in which you cared for Victoria up until the end. Kudos to you for putting your own life on hold to care for your Mom.
Jr., Mary, and Albino, you guys had a great Mom who loved you very much. Now all we can do to honor Victoria is to follow in her footsteps and love our own children with as much gusto and zeal. I will miss her terribly. We can all rejoice that the good Lord has finally called her home and we can take comfort that her suffering is no more.
