To the Aguilar Gonzales family,
We are so sorry to hear this! We understand the pain you must be going through these last few days. We just did not know. We are so sorry.
Nickie, I wish I was there to hug you... but I know God's Angels have been doing that already. We prayed for God's Will to be done and if this is it... even though it is hard to accept.... we can only do that -- accept God's will in our lives.
Nickie, please remember that everything in our lives happens for a reason. God is still seating in His Throne and He has EVERY THING under control. Some things make no sense at all, but in due time, we will understand why this and that happened. Only God knows and we ought to trust God's will. Remember that God is never early nor late. He called your beautiful Mom to come home and He knows why He did it now and not later. Bless God for all He's done. Don't ask questions, Jesus will answer you in His time. He knows exactly what you and your family are going through right now. It might not seem like it at times, but I can assure you that He has all of you sheltered in His loving arms.
I am sure Mrs. Sylvia is happy to know that those of us (including my Mom and sister) that had the privilege of meeting her, talking to her, know that she was a sweet woman, and her soft voice reflected her inner tenderness. This should be a smile to your family. Your beautiful Mom left a soft fragrance in each one of our hearts. We will remember her with Carino.
I know nothing can replace the place of a mother, but God is there by your side. He will give you the strength you need to go on with your life. Nickie, you have two precious treasures to take care of, Karlynn and Jonas, and, a wonderful blessing that God gave you -- Orlando. What a wonderful blessing to have a husband like him. He is a remarkable man -- take care of him. Nickie, you are surrounded by blessings -- love them! They already love you very much! Remember that they need you very much too.
Our prayers to you and your family,
God bless you.

Dear Gonzales-Aguilar Family,
I am so deeply sorry for the loss of Doña Sylvia. She was truly an angel from above taking care of everyone. She was such a wonderful, loving, sweet, caring woman. I didn't get to meet her, but I was really looking foward to go to Houston to meet the Family. The most I ever spoke to her was about a handful of times, but every single time that her and I spoke, she was so sweet to me. I had a lot of love and cariño for her. I have only seen her in pictures, may she rest in peace. I will never forget all the times that she called me Mijito and those sweet words. I'm really not used to being called that, not even my own mother calls me that, that I was even starting to call her mom. The Gonzales-Aguilar family is a wonderful family. Mr. Gonzales, Lala, Nika, and the whole Aguilar family, please keep in mind that she is not gone, Doña Sylvia is still there with all of you. She is with the Lord, above, looking down on everyone. She is still there with all of you in spirit.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~
Señor, por favor, bendiga a esta familia. Curele todo el dolor que tienen por aver perdido a una señora tan linda como doña Sylvia. Cuidela, y que descanse en paz.
Se lo ruego porfavor.
Amen.

May the Lord bless all of you,

Joe I am at a loss for words, of course my condolences and prayers go out to you and your family. Sylvia was the first person to talk to me when I arrived at Marshall, she could see the fear in me and made me feel comforable. She will always be in my heart and in my thoughts. I will miss her smile and her advice, but I will never forget her. Love, Gloria

Dear Mr. Gonzales, Laura, and Veronica,
I consider it an honor and privilege to have known Sylvia. She was as beautiful on the inside as she was on the out! I have always loved these words of Henry Ward Beecher: "What the heart has known and loved, it shall never lose." Surely Sylvia will be with each of you forever.
Sincerely,
Lupe (Quizzy) Villegas

Joe, Lala, Nika and Orly…
Sylvia will always be in our hearts and in our thoughts. She will always be remembered by us as “Mom”. Her lectures and advice we cherish and will be missed. Please do not see this as a loss but as an addition to God’s Kingdom, from where she will be watching all of us. Her beautiful smile that warmth us, will continue to do so as we all remember the precious moments we all had a pleasure of sharing with her.
We Love you...Our Prayers are always with you....God Bless you!!
