FAMILY TRIBUTE

As we mourn the passing of our Mother, Alicia, I hope we can also take comfort in the wonderful legacy she has left behind.  She was a loving Wife, Mother,  Sister, Grandmother, Great Grandmother, and Great Great Grandmother.  Family was everything to her.  We will all have our own memories of her, especially the ones during the holidays, but also her memories from her own childhood that she would often tell us about.  Mom was a very giving person, strong in her religious beliefs, and valued the importance of family. 
 
One thing is for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. Those we love don’t go away; they walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near; still loved, still missed and very dear. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love. Our mother will always be in our minds; forever in our hearts, she'll stay, until we meet again someday.
