I wish I had got to know your mom, Manuel like my parents did. My mom, Pebbles, told me so many so many stories about your and my dad and your family throughout the years that some days I feel like I was there. By the way, she raised you and your friendship with my father I know she had to have the patience of a saint or was just an amazing mother wife and woman all around. (with the patience of a saint).My heart goes out to you and your family right now. You have their for mine so many times and you are part of them too. You're my dad chosen brother, so if there is anything you need please let us know. One last thing: You may not be with us here on Earth, and for that my heart is filled with joy that you are with the Lord, but I want to give my thanks in words for the kindness you showed my father when he found friendship through your son. Soledad, to your family and you, it was Manuel who led my father back to God. Valdez family I owe so much to this woman that I never truly got to thank, so I thank your family as a whole and praise God that she has found peace by His side.

Oh sweet mother in law - you were always an angel on earth and we are so blessed that you will continue to watch over us from the heavens above. Your smiling face, loving heart and kindness will be missed by us on earth - but we are happy that you are rejoicing with you husband Angel and sons Tommy, Gabriel and Michael and granddaughter Kimberly and a host of others that have passed on. I am sure there was a mariachi band playing and a celebration upon your arrival. Rest in Peace our dear mother until we meet again.
