I shall miss her and her smile. My Mom (Aunt Dutchie) and Aunt Anna, I’m sure were waiting for her. She was an amazing and intelligent woman. Condolences and Blessings to her familia, my cousins. I love you .
Cecilia (the one & only)
She & her husband, my Mom & Dad, especially would be very hurt & disappointed , due to the fact that Theresa Leyvas spent all of Daddy’s money on herself & sold their home which my Dad always said “the house goes to Jill”, which although gave birth to her my Mom & Dad were her parents, she was their last child that left their home. Terry chose to ignore what were my Dad’s wishes, and her greedy hateful self gave her brother & sister nothing, and ignored the fact that Jill was my parents daughter. Too bad for her it didn’t fix her crooked eyes , her obesity, & jealousy which my Grama bought that fact to me shortly before she went to heaven.
CECILIA S ENCINAS
My Mom & Dad would both be very disappointed, hurt and especially my Dad would be mad. Theresa Leyvas treated their daughter Jill who was the last of their children to leave home as if she didn’t matter. Jill took the place of her & Cissy, my Dad always said “THE HOUSE GOES TO JILL” , but Theresa being the greedy person that she is sold their home, never giving her brother and sister a dime. She spent all of their money as if she were Manuel’s & Isabel’s only child. Too bad for her didn’t fix her crooked eyes or her obesity.
