My beloved Aunt Amparo, we are missing you, but I know you are smiling and free from pain and illness, and for that I thank God . Growing up around you allowed me to have so many great memories. Even as recent as 2 months ago when you were in the hospital you managed to make us laugh and smile with your fun wit. You were so very special to me and I can still hear your voice call me “Georgie” , which warms my heart, but brings tears to my eyes.
You are free now to walk in God’s Garden without pain or difficulty. Keep watch over your family and hold our spot until it is our time to join you.

My sweet friend Amy! Our kids all went to Crockett together and we worked together at Crockett. In our neighborhood we all knew one another and watched out for all our kids. It was the good days. I’m so sorry you lost your precious Mama. I know she had gained her way into Heaven. I love you all.M

Sending prayers, condolences, and my love to the entire family of Amparo. I know that Mackey loved his Tía Amparo very much, and enjoyed any opportunity that she was able to visit us, or that he was able to visit her. She is now resting in heavenly peace with loved ones who have gone before her.

So sorry for your loss. I loved going to her house when I was younger. I would spend the night at my Tia Yick’s house and we would visit. She always had a cheerful smile. She’s in Gods hands now, but she will continue to be with you in Spirit, your hearts, and your memories. May she Rest in Paradise. Peace be with you Nana Amy.

Even now, looking at her photograph I can feel her loving, happy and caring energy. We will all miss Aunty Paro tremendously. I have wonderful memories of times spent with her that I cherish. They even go back to her babysitting me when I was little. My heart, prayers and condolences to all of the family as we mourn the loss of such a beautiful woman.

Sonny, Bochy, Ronald, Donald, Isabell and Family,
I was saddened to hear that your mother had passed away. She was a warm, patient and loving Auntie. She always set the example by being the woman who did the right thing for all of the right reasons.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
