To My Beloved Sister-in-law


My sister-in-law Nita, was a unique person. A person with a kind heart who always worried about others. I will miss her laughter, smiles, complaints, and calls to the house when she needed some advice or just someone to talk to. She loved her kids so much and was so proud of them. She devoted her life to her children. No matter what troubles life brought her, she always had the strength to bounce back. She carried such a heavy heart. I saw Nita change gradually after the death of her son. I didn't see that sparkle in her eyes, or feel her zest for life. I will never forget that smile and our last goodbye's as we left Rene's house to head back to Japan. She was weak, but was recovering well. I feel blessed we were able to spend time with her in the hospital and at Grandma Rosa's. Oh Nita, you were'nt suppose to go yet. We had plans for that road trip you were suppose to take with Jennifer to Tucson. I will miss you and I know you have joined your son and smiling with your arms around him as you look down upon us. May you rest in peace with our heavenly father. Goodbye Nita, you will be so dearly missed.
