Her Life

My Mom

October 17, 2011

My mother was the most gentle, loving and caring person I know. She suffered a lot throught her lifetime. She batlled with depression off an on but never gave up. She was a loving wife and mother and best friend to all who knew her. She was also my best friend and it left a large void when I lost her. Fortunately, I have come to know the Lord and he has gotten me through it.

She was born in Spain and came to this country in 1918 at age 3. She lived in Gary, Indiana and met my dad and fell madly in love with him. They eloped and got married at Crown Point, Indiana in 1935. They lived in Gary and started their family with my two brothers Art and Hank. In 1953 they moved to California and settled in Oakland. Low and behold she became pregant at age 40 and I was born September 30, 1955. She finally had her little girl and she did spoil me in good ways. I have so many loving memories of her i could go on for hours. God Bless you Mom, may you rest in peace!
