Grandma, the world will not be the same without you! You showed us what it met to be a family, loving and caring for all of us. I have so many great memories of you. I remember when I went home this summer, how I could not wait to go to your house to see you, or when you told me that you did not want your picture taken; but I am glad that I did.



You raised wonderful children, and that shows in you grandchildren, and your great-grandchildren. As time went on I went out into this world to make a life for me; but always keeping the most precious thing near and dear to my heart, and that was my family. You showed us that friends will come and go, but your family will always be there.



It has been a rough week knowing that you are not here anymore. I am so grateful that I was able to see you one more time, and even more appreciative to the lord that my children will always know who you are. Our family will continue to grow, and as it does, I know the photo albums will come out and the stories will start; and they too will know you, grandpa, uncle Tim, and our cousin Linda, and what special people you all are to us.



My comfort is knowing that the physical life that we have on this earth, although, very precious is within a minuet piece of time in comparison to all eternity.



I love you very much



You’re Grandson

PS let Grandpa have the extra egg now

SORRY I COULDNOT BE WITH YOU. MY HEART&THOUGHTS WERE WITH YOU.MAY THE LORD HOLD HELP ALL AT THIS TIME.

LOVE BUD

Grandma, I love you more than words can say. We miss you and love you very much and wish that you were still here on earth with us. I know that you are in a better place. Where you suffer no more and are at peace. The loss that we feel is so great. You were such a beautiful and strong person. We are so blessed to have known you.



I thought it was so cute how you would race down the hall with your walker. I would call you my “super trooper” because you would have such a beautiful smile even though you may have been very tired or in pain. You sure had a sweet tooth. I remember one night we shared a bowl of ice cream. Just thinking about it makes me smile. I really enjoyed the times as a child when the family would gather for special occasions. The Easter egg hunts were so much fun. I remember the crochet dolls that you made for us were so beautiful. These memories along with many more will be cherished forever.



When you were in the hospital you had asked that Tammy and I sing for you when you went home. I’m sorry we never had that chance. I take comfort in believing that angels along with my dad are singing for you now.



You always made me feel loved. I am very thankful that I had the opportunity to tell you how much I loved you before you left this earth. I know that some people were not able to see you at the end of your life but I believe you could feel their love.



I am so happy and honored to be your granddaughter. I will always love you and you will always be in my heart.



Love,

Tila

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Grandma! I just cannot believe you are gone. You never got the chance to meet your new great-granddaugter. Rachel (my wife) and I wanted so badly to make it out for the Fourth of July but couldn't due to money constraints. I cannot even attend your funeral due to bad times and I feel like scum. I miss you more than life itself and I hurt. I hurt so bad not being able to say goodbye to you! You always made me feel welcome. I will always remember pulling into town and up to the house and you coming outside to greet us. You'd always have a smile and say, "Junior!" and give me the biggest hug. I cry happy tears knowing now that you're with grandpa. You're happy! Tell Linda, Uncle Tim, and Grandpa I said Hi! I love you so much and I will NEVER forget you! You were somebody I could always look forward to seeing! I will see you someday and I hope you will once again greet me with open arms and the sweet sound of "Junior!" I love you! You're grandson - Ken Mascarenas Jr.

Holly, Glen, Michael and I send our deepest sympathy in this time of loss. Mrs. Mascarenas always made me feel as if I was part of the family when I would come over with her grandson. She will be greatly missed. May God Bless and be with the family and friends who are mourning her passing.

James, Tina, girls and the whole family.. so sorry for your loss. Just find comfort in the fact that she is at peace and now with her hubby. I know the heartache she was going through without him, I see it in my own grandma. My thoughts and prayers are with you! Love you much!!!!!!
