  1. My Heart is broken to hear Lolita passed away. But I know for a fact she went straight to Heaven. She was like a big sister and a friend. I remember our last visit, she whispered in my ear, remember when you eated my piece of cake I had in the fridge. She said I told her I was hungry. Anyway you don’t pay me. I laughed I don’t remember that I was only 13 years old. She always took me Galveston to see her parents. She was kind and her whole family were very loving brothers and sisters. I so sorry for you’ll loss. I you’ll were always loved by her. Alfred and Rick for your Loss.
