Billie Jean, Ruben, David, and many cherished great grandchildren.

Indeed, Mom was an exceptional cook, talented gardener, and excelled at word searches. In her leisure time, she very rarely missed an episode of Jeopardy or Wheel of Fortune! Her red time-worn, Bible was a testament to her unwavering devotion to God, and keen understanding of its teachings, and she spent her entire life to being a faithful servant. 

Mom, was every good word in the dictionary: kind, loving, and unconditional, who will be deeply missed by her family and friends. She was the beautiful melody in the rhythm of our lives. 

Rest in peace, Mom. Your memory is forever etched in the hearts of those who loved you.
