To my sister-in-law Ofelia who I loved so much. She was a wonderful wife, mother and had so many caring friends. She loved her family deeply and had a truly outgoing personalities and was so much fun to be around and she loved all of God’s creatures especially her dog Annie who was her faithful companion for the last few years.
I and everyone who knew her will truly miss her but I know she is now resting in peace in God’s Heavenly Kingdom.
God Bless you and all your family and friends who were blessed to have you in their lives.
