    So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother Danny and Elizabeth. She was always in the neighborhood when I came to visit or take care of my nieces and nephew, Lisa, Robbie and Tracy. She and your Dad took me and my new husband Steve to the Airport the day after our wedding so we could leave for our honeymoon. (They did this because the rest of my family was in Johnstown still celebrating our wedding and we needed to be at the Pittsburgh Airport very early for our flight.) She was always friendly and helpful to me and she was a good friend to my sister and her family. We celebrated many family events with her and with your Dad. She will surely be missed. Valerie Tutokey (Lisa, Rob and Tracy's Aunt.)

    Mona, fuiste una tía que aunque pocas veces pudo estar presente físicamente, debido a la distancia, siempre nos recordaste en todos nuestros cumpleaños con tus tarjetas, que sin falta llegaban por correo año tras año durante nuestra infancia y adolescencia. Además siempre nos enviabas fotos de tu familia, para que sintiéramos que de algún modo los conocíamos, aunque en persona estuvieron en Colombia sólo una sola vez (Denny y Elizabeth), y tú y Lou un par de veces más. Fuiste muy cariñosa y me acogiste con mil atenciones cuando fui a visitarte a Pittsburgh en 1997, donde tuve la suerte de estar contigo y Lou, y compartir un poco de tu vida y de la de mis queridos primos Denny y Elizabeth, y tus dos nietas Angela y Alexa. Me entristece tu partida inesperada, pero me consuelan dos cosas: una fue que pude hablar contigo por última vez dos días antes de que Dios te llevara con Él, y la otra es que ahora estás de nuevo reunida con mis queridos abuelitos Jaime e Isabelita, y con mis tías Marta y Olga Isabel, además de toda la linda familia que te acompañó en vida y que ya no está con nosotros. Mona, siempre estarás en nuestros recuerdos y en nuestros corazones. Te amamos y nunca te olvidaremos. Descansa en paz mi querida tía Mona. Con amor, tu sobrina Luz Adriana.
