When we lose someone we love, it seems that time stands still.
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.
Anna Ramos/Gloria's sister (Childhood friend)

Yollie's passing is much too soon.

I wish there was time to get to know her or to tell her that she was a great person. She was my mother's best friend.

My warmest condolences to the entire family who is grieving for their loss.

Although years have passed since we last visited, we have so many fond memories of Yoli and her beautiful smile. We would like to share some pictures of some very happy times. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of your family as well as ours. Yoli was a part of our family as well. May she rest in peace.
