This memorial website was created in memory of my beautiful wife, Lilia Trevino, 52, born on March 28, 1962 and passed away on October 24, 2014. We will love and miss her dearly forever. She is survived by her son Moses Ramirez and Husband Jesse Ramirez, mother Lydia Trevino, brother Joe Trevino, and sister Eva Longoria.
The music you are hearing is from a recording that my wife did in High School with her band. All the keyboard playing and the solo is Lilia. One of her many talents.
The following was read by me (Lilia's Husband) at Lilia's Vigal/Rosary. A poem from EE Cummings that she always enjoyed.
i carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart)
i am never without it (anywhere i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling)
i fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) ... i want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
It has taken me a year to visit this website. I guess because it has taken me this long to stop crying about losing my BFF so early in life. As I sit at my desk at work the tears well up in my eyes and the lump in my throat grows larger....The sadness I felt one year ago comes flooding back. It still feels like yesterday that she passed away. My name is Geneva and for those who don't know me I met Lilia back in 1988 at the University of Houston. I can still remember the day we met it was at a MASO (Mexican American Student Organization) meeting. We both were new to the organization and didnt know anyone. I remember hearing her speaking up and offering her brilliant ideas on how to raise money for the organization. It was one on many times that I heard her throughout the years speak up and share her exuberance and excitement about anything and everything. She was one of a kind human being. My most happiest moments were when we were together just laughing at silly stuff till we cried. She brought a kind of sunshine and laughter into my life that I have not been able to find with anyone else in my life. I miss her deeply. I talk to her often asking why she had to leave me so soon...But I dont ever get an answer. I find comfort and gratitude in just knowing that I was blessed with her in my life....even though our time together was cut short...Luv you Lilia!!!!! G
Lilia had all of us on Christmas2006 making pan de polvo cookies. That year we made several batches to give to family and friends. Cooking was a central point in my wife's life. Many of my fondest memories of her was in the kitchen helping her come up with a new recipe that was better than any fine restaurant that I have eaten. She had many talents as an artist in the kitchen, in her painting, in her crochet, in her knitting, in all aspects of her life.
I allways felt honored and privliged to have shared my life with such a dynamic, live loving woman. We only get a few chances in life to spend it with someone who gets you, completes you, and motivates you to be the person they see in you. If you are lucky enough to find someone like that, share them with the world and let them shine in your life as well as others.
This was a short clip of Lilia with Moses at a family get together after his baptism.
