  2. Maria was a special person my heart is saddened to hear that we lost another great one I always respected and admired her she will be missed dearly and knowing Daniel was there to open the magical gates and hold her hand letting her in brings me some comfort

  3. My dearest Maria Elena, words cannot express the depth of gratitude I feel for the overwhelming love you and Daniel have poured into my life over these past 30 years. You’ve welcomed me into your family with open hearts, and in doing so, you’ve filled my soul with warmth, kindness, and an unbreakable sense of belonging. I believe that my beloved mi viejito came to gently take your hand and guide you gently toward the light and eternal peace. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for granting me one last precious blessing just days before you left this world forever. Please send my love and gratitude to mi viejito Daniel—I think of him often, with love and fondness. My heart will forever hold both of you close, and now I will hold you in my prayers, hugging you with all the love I carry within me. I love you endlessly. Love always, Cholita
