  3. I remember spending Summers as a kid at both my cousin Veraliza and Sonia’s house. She was so loving and so much fun. She welcomed you with open arms and you knew you belonged. My heart is filled with sadness but grateful that God placed her in my life. I will continue to smile every time I think of you.

    Love You!
