Loretta Quintana published a tribute .

Hello mom, I woke up this morning and you weren't there. I felt very sad without seeing your beautiful, happy, smiling face. Your mind fought bravely to keep your body alive, but your body said no I am hurting too much. I can't live like this anymore. I don't care to be in it any more. It is broken down.

God came to me and said my child come with me because I have a new spiritual body for you my child that doesn't hurt or break down any more. You are my beloved child, I love you that is why you are going with me. Mom was filled with God's unfailing love and Holy Spirit. She could not refuse God's offer.
I love you mom and I will always miss talking to you, hugging you kissing you. I will miss your smiles and companionship. You were forgiving, patient and wise. I will have to wait a little longer to see you, but I can always feel your love because you are my guardian angel.

All I can say is that we don't know about tomorrow, so today tell someone that you love them.

Love you forever mom.
