Nina, you will be deeply missed. You stayed in touch with me all these years and reached out to my kids to get to know them. That means so much to me. I love you and will miss you very much. Rest in peace.

Kathy, you were a wonderful person. We were blessed to have known you in this life. Michael has lots of fond memories from hanging out with Lee. I remember meeting you from hanging out with Phillip. You always were full of joy, and very welcoming. I am going to miss our facebook games together. We had some great competitions. May you rest in peace with our Loving Heavenly Father. Until we meet again!

My dearest sister,

I am sitting here reminiscing on our childhood and how you loved to play the game of life. We would sit in our room for hours at a time playing that board game and you always wanted the pink car. As we got older that pink car was now a 67 Chevy Impala SS. We would cruse the San Fernando Mall and we thought we were too cool. Even when you went up the curb a few times making a right turn into the mall… we laughed our butts off. Joy always called shotgun and so Josie and I had to sit in the back. Then you met Phillip, the love of your life. The cursing stopped and you began a new chapter in your life as God took you through a new journey in life. You had four beautiful children, two who gave you four grandbabies, the youngest being only days old when God came to call you. I guess God needed another angel. I could go on and on…but I won't. I want to say sister, that I will so miss your sense of humor, your laughter, your early in the morning birth wishes and the “I love you sister” as we would hang up the phone. Until we meet again, I love you sister.

My dearest aunt Kathy, your memory will be alive in my heart always. You were so very special to me, thank you for being there for me and my kids. I'll always remember your grilled cheese sandwiches and chicken noodle soup when I was a little girl and sick at your house in Arleta :). I will miss you tremendously I love you aunt Kathy.
