"Happy birthday Malu! I am comforted by the thought of you being really happy in the presence of the Lord. Continue to pray for us, just as you had in the past"

"Happy Birthday Mom! :) I miss you and I love you so much... I know that celebrating your birthday wherever you are is million times happier than here on earth. Im happy knowing that you are already happy with God and with dad and abuelito,lolo,lola.."

"God took you in his loving arms
He saw you needed rest
His garden must be beautiful
For He only takes the best......

I will surely miss you my friend."

"FUNERAL BLUES by Auden
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead.
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves."

"He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;
For nothing now can ever come to any good."

"On the very few encounters I have with Malu, I am able to walk away with great hope in my heart and I get this feeling everything will be alright."

"It will never be the same without her presence.  My heart is heavy with so much sorrow and sadness.  I will forever miss her."

"They say that only the good die young and that God has some special purpose for calling you home. Your brother Bob, Wife Karen and the boys are friends of mine and so you are my friend too.  God Bless"
