My sweet beautiful grandma ❤️ most of my memories of you are close to the kitchen. You were always cooking for your family. You always made sure you sent us home with tons of little plastic bowls filled with rice and beans, & empanadas. You had the softest pretties hands. 💔 Love you grandma
Cruz, my grandmother, was a very important part of my life. Her and my grandfather helped me when I was a young adult trying to find my feet. They took me in and provided a home as well as some much needed guidance which I reluctantly absorbed. I see now, in the way I have raised my children, many of the values they had instilled in me. I know that many of my current successes are in part due to her generosity and spirit. There are so many things I will miss, but one of the things that I will miss the most is her charm and her sense of humor. She had many sayings, some of which I can not mention. She made my smile and laugh all of the time. She truly cared about me and loved me and wanted me to succeed. i hope she will look down on me now and see that she has succeeded in helping me. I hope one day I will be able to thank her.
