October 28, 1927 ~ July 24, 2018
I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles
when life is done.
I’d like to leave an echo whispering
softly down the ways.
Of happy times and laughing times
and bright and sunny days.
I’d like the tears of those who grieve,
to dry before the sun.
Of happy memories that I leave
when life is done.
My deepest condolences to you and family Louis. Beautiful pictures of your mom Ida E. Martinez.
Dear Louie & Judie – so sorry we couldn’t make the services for Dear Ida. She always brightened up a party or any room she was in. She was so sweet and loving and generous. I still remember the drink she made – it was delicious and she was so thoughtful to share it with us. Mark & I enjoyed talking with her at family gatherings as she was so positive and up-beat. We will sorely miss her. We’re sending our love & God’s blessings to you at this difficult time.
