LOPEZ, ESTHER M. PATTERSON, JODY L. Esther and daughter Jody celebrate their first year in heaven this month. Our families (Lopez & Patterson) and those who knew Esther and Jody can attest to the example they showed in being ready to meet our Savior. Yet, it is not as easy as Esther asked: "Don't mourn or weep," as she was happy to be on her way to be with God and our Blessed Virgin Mary. Jody too was full of the Holy Spirit, and well prepared to join our Savior. The vision and example of these two beautiful women lives on in our daily lives, they spread so much love and guidance to all of us. Like each of her grandkids said "I know I am grandma's favorite!"

GALLEGOS, MEDARDO JR. 7/12/42 - 4/13/13 In Loving Memory I'M FREE Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free I'm following the path God laid for me I took His hand when I heard him call I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day To laugh, to love, to work or play Tasks left undone must stay that way I found that peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void Then fill it with remembered joy A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss Ah yes, these things, I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow My life's been full, I savored much Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all to brief Don't lengthen it now with undue grief Lift up your head and share with me God wanted me now, he set me free. Your Loving Family
