Hi Vita! I can't believe how fast time flies. I still have a distinct memory in my head from when you laughed at me when I called you Vita :) I know it was from my terrible Spanish accent :) I know you're looking down on everyone and making sure everyone is safe. Miss you.

My Tia Vita was a very sweet, loving, giving, and thoughtful person. I was very blessed and very fortunate to have her as a part of my life. To have been able to experience her love growing up is indescribable for words. Even though she had a big family she found a way of making us all feel special, individually. She always gave us hugs wrote thoughtful messages in cards for birthdays, Christmas and other special days.

Her smile and presence

Her smile and presence lit up the room. She was always smiling and in good spirits. Her bubbly personality made you feel good just by being next to her. I always looked forward to seeing my Tia Vita not because I always felt good spending time with her but also because she would always laugh at my jokes and she laughed at all of my jokes, even the ones that I thought weren't that funny. She had a really good sense of humor. She didn't take things too harshly. She always had a positive attitude and a possitive outlook on life and she always saw the best in people which are some of the qualities about her that I admire most. She is one of the best role models in my life.

I am going to miss my TiaVita very much even though she is not physically present I know that she is next to me in spirit and always will be. I have comfort in knowing that she is with God and that she is praying and watching over me and all of us.

I love you very much Tia, forever.

From the bottom of my heart your niece Monica Alcala

I love you so much. I think of you everyday and miss you more than words can say. My baby girl just turned two! Which means you've been gone that long too.
