To my oldest and dearest friends..
Mom is such a beautiful person…both inside and out. I do not speak in past tense, as I believe their spirit lives on forever. There will be moments that you will have this sudden rush or vision and realize Mom is watching over you. Little signs.
She radiated love ❤️ with her smile and deepest caring for her children & familia.
What a blessed childhood we all had and I could have not wished for a better second family…
Eliana..it’s time for you to soar, live again, dance and laugh with those who waited for you😇.
Peace and prayers….xoxo
Lori
