For me life really hasnt gone on I think of you every minute of the day.I still work at Pinon because it helps me walk down the halls you and I walked together.I go into the classrooms you worked in I see some of the artwork you made for lst grade.I still go off campus and park where you and I use to eat lunch when you brought it for me after you retired.

Hello my love its me one of the persons who loved you more than life. Today to the day made 1 year you fell and broke your hip. This has been a very very hard week for me. You are always on my mind but this was one of the hardest.I even hated being at school and yet I feel so close to you there.I walk down the same halls you and I walked I go to the rooms that we spent so much time together.It was very very lonely for me.I miss you so much.Nobody celebrated Thanksgiving this and will probably never do it again.Family is not complete with you and Patsy Phillip Mom Dad and even little Ray. All I could think about if we had celebrated Thanksgiving here at this house you might of not fallen down and you might of been here with us this year.Next month will be a living hell for all of us.There are no more holidays for this family.You were are holiday girls with the decorations and the sweaters and shirts for every holiday you even had the earrings.I have a lot of pain when someone in the family passes but you and my dad leaving me is like a death sentence because I loved everyone in the family but you and dad made my life complete. My girls are missing you so much.You were so important to them.I dont think a day goes by that they
remember something you said that would make them say WHAT and then they would laugh.You gave my girls so much love and so much joy and they miss you so much.They find it hard to be happy and they feel so sad because there is so much they would of wanted to share with you. How you would say something or describe stuff.You always made them laugh They LOVED YOU so much I have been without you for so long my heart aches.You were so important to me and I loved you and still do more than I ever told you.I hope Richard and Bernadette will have the relationship you and I had it was amazing. I am so lonely without you. The only thing that helps me to move on is that if it was the other way around and I was gone and you were alive You would feel this pain and saddness that I wouldnt wish on anyone. There are times when I think of you and the grief is so bad I cant catch my breath.I hope you and Patsy and little Ray and mom and dad are together opps I forgot about Philllip If you are together you are so lucky I love all of you guys so much .Well I better go but I want you to know that today REALLY SUCKED Love you

Hey its me Paula oh my God I am running out of time to talk to you.I miss you so much going back to school helped but lately it isnt working.In a couple of days it will be year you broke you hip, no one wants to celebrate Thanksgivng We have nothing to be thankful for because it is only a reminder of the beginning when we started to lose you maybe you would still be here if we had done it at this house. My heart ache for you sometimes is so unbearable. The girls cant and wont celebrate any holidays anymore they miss you and Patsy so much,God cheated my babies because you and Patsy meant so much to them.I sometimes hate going to work because I miss you so Chrystal and I always talk about all the little art projects you use to do for her she has a few things you made and when she uses them she tells the kids and reminds me of how you made all the art stuff she did and the stuff you made Louie do. God has given me a huge cross to bear now that all the Sandovals are gone. I miss you so much so many things I do and think about always include you. I think the only good thing that came of this is that you will never have to feel the sadness and the lonliness I have felt .I cant even imagine how you would of done if it had been me and not you. I was so proud and happy that you were my sister .I was so blessed to have you in my life.I need to say good bye for now but I have a couple more times t write you before that take you off the website. I LOVE YOU TERRI AND MY HEART ACHES BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT WITH TO TO GROW OLD TOGETHER love you peepers , me paula

Hey sister its me sorry its been so long.Time is running out on me to talk to you like this.I can not believe its almost a year since you left me alone.I miss you and Patsy,Phillip little Ray Mom and Dad.I miss you so much when I went back to work it gave me comfort because of the years you and I walked those halls but its getting hard now because I miss you so much.My Zoe is getting bigger and older,she is so beautiful.Her and Berna cant move on either.They both miss you so much.y Berna always reminds me of the wonderful mother you were to her, a lot of times she makes decisions she thinks of what your opinion would be or how you would decide on a situation.We try to keep Louie company a lot of the time but we are a poor substitute for you. Richard is trying to find his way but keeps away from the family and I guess thats how he copes family is not enough for him he feels lost without you God knows I felt that same way when I lost my dad I felt as if my whole world had crumbled I am glad I didnt let it take over me because I wouldnt of been able to share all of the good things he gave me to share with Berna and Zoe. I had to make sure that they knew what he meant to me and how I tried to live my life that he would be proud of me.Being your sister made me feel and see how lucky I was to have the great brothers and sisters I had.Its really lonely not having brothers and sisters.Many people in this family dont realize how lucky they are to have each other. Its not a family thing ist a loving thing. I regret a lot of what I didnt do when I was lucky to have my brothers and sisters I have people who love me family that loves me but not having siblings or parents is such a void. Life feels so incomplete that all of you are gone I miss you my sister my friend my life.My life seems so incomplete with out you.Not a day goes by that I dont miss you or talk to you I keep myself going because I know you would be disapointed in me. Time to go talk to you later I love you miss you and think of you every minute of every day juts me Pauline

Hey my partner in crime sorry its been so long going back to work as kept me busy.I miss you so much walking the halls of Pinon are happy and sad I feel close to you I remember all the years we spent there together I feel you as I walk the halls and I remember all the laughter and the every moment we spend there,but I feel so alone my life has not been the same. I cant seem to quit because you are there with me Thank You for the wonderful times you gave me there. But Iam alone now my Sandoval family is all gone.The pain and loneliness I go through every day is heartbreaking some people dont understand because they say I not alone Sometimes I question myself am I alone because God was mad at me and he took my Sandoval Family away.Things really havent been the same since you left I really dont have anyone to share my happiness and my sadness with,you were my rock you made me feel worthy. Oh God I dont know what to do without you ,I have no confidence I dont have a shoulder to lean on,I feel for anynone who lost someone like I lost you we were always meant to be together and now I stand alone Yes I have family but what you and I had was so special,things are so crazy now it makes me sad becuase I dont think our children will ever have what we had they use too but it seemed to have vanished. Thats what made you and I unique no matter what would ever happen between us we always found our way back to each other.I talk to you all the time and I hope you hear me,sometimes I feel you with me when Im afraid, sad, happy and I wonder if Im doing things right,you know it was you who guided me through life not the other way around,I always thought I was the strong one but it was you . You showed me how to be the person I am you and dad were my soul mates, my helpers, the ones who always set me on the right path Im lost now really lost Lately I have really need you guys to help me to get through the day to not question myself to tell me what Iam doing is good and right. I can only hope that I can give others what you and dad gave me,the will go go on I go on but I doubt myself I worry and Iam so sad without you guys. Please please remeber always that I love you and miss you more than you will ever know Im one Sandoval all alone hoping I make a difference in the rest of the familys life that you gqve me Tell mom dad little Ray Phillip that I love them and miss them Write to you soon with love Pauline

Hey my dearest its me I really miss you today more than usual I need so badly to talk to you to seek your advice and opinions on what prays heavy on my mind. I feel the weight of the world on me. I feel so alone without you.You always kept me balanced. I feel so many things I need to get done and cant find the mind set to do it.You always found a way for me to figure things out when I was stuck. I so want to talk to you again face to face,I want so much to see your smile and even your frown when you and I did not agree on stuff. The only thing I have going for me is that you went first I would not like for you to feel the pain and the absence that I feel every day that you have been gone,I regret all the years we had our differences we had with Patsy all the, . wasted years of not being together. I have always felt like an orphan when our parents died ,I regret that Little Ray died alone in the hospital. I hate myself for not doing more for Phillip,he should have had us taking care of him like we promised my mom and dad The only relief I have is that none of you have to live not having parents or siblings.I miss all of you guys so much I wish I had been a better daughter and sister than I was but I am resolved that its me who has to live like this I wouldnt wish this on any of you, I guess God did me a favor so none of you would have to endure this emptiness. Time to go just needed to say I miss you and will always love you if you see any of the family tell them I love them and miss them every minute of the day.Think of me often as I think of you guys

I will be going back to work soon. As funny it was our place.You and I spent so much time in the Santa Fe School district,I have about 4 more years till I Hang up my school ID.You know I was really proud and happy that I had siblings that I loved very much.Being without you guys is scary, too bad people dont ever realize the heartache and the lonliness one feels when you are the only one left. I think about you and Patsy Little Ray and Phillip all the time.I find myself going back in time thinking about they years we spent together all that we did as kids growing making fun of each other being mad at each other,all I have is the good memories ,crazy memories,the not so good memories too bad oi took me so long to see how special having brothers and sisters who I loved and loved me. We had our moments all of us but you know I am lucky and grateful that I have memories of you guys to hand on too and I cant forget our parents we were very lucky to have good a good mom and a terrific dad,I really they would of been able to meet Zoe They would of seen her her as an angel of God.So many days come and go and my heart aches for you it has been nearly impossible to look at each day without you I hope that you know and remember how much I loved you you guiding light you were the person who was always there for me no matter what I hope that I did the same for you . I was so lucky to have you I miss you each and every day.I always say to myself if I only had one more day to see and talk to you at least one more time to say I love you you were my guiding light and you meant the world to me to be able to say to your face I LOVE YOU AND YOU GAVE ME PURPOSE.

Hello its me sorry again for taking so long but I have unfinished business of Phillip and coping with the fact that I am alone no more Sandovals to speak of,My dads birthday was today and then 6 days later he was gone .Some days I dont know how I hold it together, Well Iam doing as Phillip wanted no mass no rosary nothing but I feel bad because there is no card for him like the rest of the family had maybe I will have Zoe design one She is really great at art. You left her alot of fond memories, any time we talk or she sees something she always says Remember when Auntie Terri did this or said that, she really misses you more than you can imagine.She afraid now that I am the only one left that my time will come soon, I told her Terri wont let that happen she takes care of me an watches over me so that I can be with you till you graduate college and get married,now Berna is a different sorry she is in such pain and mouring she has stopped celebrating holidays, to her they dont mean or matter anything without you and Patsy.Everyday is just a day Zoe agrees and says why should we have a good time when those she loved so much are gone.My girls are really hurting and I cant do anything to ease their pain just to let them know that you guys are still with them watching over them.This family was so lucky to have you guys I have alot of memories of you Patsy mom dad Philli[ and litlle ray but i wish on my life that I habd you guys more its hard to go through life with just memories I thank God for you guys but I am angry with him too because I am alone love you my sister talk to you soon

Hey my sister,sorry its been so long but stuff hasnt been good for me in a while.Its hard to accept the fact that all the Sandovals are gone except me. It feels pretty lonely let me tell you but one thing I have come to realize is that Im glad its me and not any of you. I would never want for any of you guys to feel the horrible void I feel, being alone with no parents and siblings,lonely has a whole new meaning for me.I hang onto every memory of you and the rest of the family I miss all of you guys a lot but not as much as I miss you and my dad. You and him were my guiding lights to this world. i counted on you and dad to help me through life, to make the right choices to be strong and look at the cup of life half full not half empty. When dad died i felt and still do such a void such sadness You and dad made me feel that I could tackle the worst life could throw at me but I dont feel that strong anymore Zoe misses you Patsy and Phillip I hope that all of you know how much she loved you guys and she misses you so, I wish mom and dad would of know her she is amazing,It hasnt been easy for her and Bernadette all they seem to have is each other they live in fear that my time will come soon now that I am alone,its hard for me because I do feel alone all the Sandovals have gone God I miss you so much there have been too many days lately that I hate and fear being alone without you, work is really lonely without you everyone is so nice but there is such a void in my heart and soul not having you there You were the best sister and friend soulmate that anyone could ask for I wish I could say that God made a mistake by taking you from me but you were the best heaven ever got dont forget me and I tell myself one day we will all be together again. I think of all of you guys all the time and hope you know how much I loved you I miss you so much and lately I really needed you to be here with me because I have had a really rough time and I think it will be around for a while remember I think about you all the time I hope you think about me sometimes but I know that you and dad and mom and littleRay and Patsy and Phillip have a lot to catch up on I love you and miss you Paula Peepers Bye for now

Hey its me again I think of you everyday. Iam trying to be strong most of the time I am okay but the days I think of all of you my heart breaks and sadness fills me. I talk to you guys all the time I hope you hear me. You and I sure do have a lot of stories dont we When I start to get really sad I think of all the dumb things we use to do I tell people abour sleding Fathers Field about us ditching school and hiding behind Simona's garage.Going to the park on Saturdays to meet Louie and getting money from Albert so we could buy a coke at Woolworths.Living on the front house on Pena Place, we really did a lot together. You remember the old saying from Patsy joined at the hip,that really use to drive her crazy.It was great that the 3 of us got to spend a couple of years together before she passed on Now I need to ask you are you guys joined at the hip.I love you tell everyone hi for me and I miss and love all of you guys,talk to you soon.

Hey Terri its me Pauline,I really wish you were here.I have come to realize that Im not good with out you. You always helped me when I couldnt figure stuff out. You kept me grounded you showed me how to figure things out when I was at a roadblock. You were my ying and I was your yang We were 2 halves that made a whole.Stuff is so crazy for me lately and if you were here you could help me find my way.Im no good without you.You gave me balance you gave me reasons to find solutions to problems I feel like I cant say or do anything right.It wont be to long before Iam the last Sandoval,When dad was alive he helped me to stay grounded I followed all he taught me he made me strong he made me to think and act smart.To find reason and purpose I spent my whole life following his ways, then he died and I thought my world was over but you were here for me you helped me to regain the strength he showed me Its coming on 30 years he has been dead and I cant get over the loss of him now with the loss of you Im right back there now I have another 30 years to live with heartbreaking grief. I need you and dad more than ever I miss you so much that my heart hurts so much without you.You and dad always made me feel that I could do anything conquer any challenge I hope you and dad knew how much you gave me in my life .I talk to you guys all the time I hang on to every memory of you help me get through these dark days so I can continue honoring you Dont ever forget that I love more and more each day Maybe this will help me a little to keep going but it sure would me easier if you were here so I could give you a hug and a kiss and tell you I love you Terry bye for now talk to you soon

Sorry Terri its been a long time but not a day has gone by that you are not in my thoughts my heart and my soul.I sure do wish you were here,I need you help your advice and just you being with me. Some days I wish I could trade places with you.I find myself asking what would Terri do believe it or not you made mores sense about stuff than I did, I find myself saying Terri would have done stuff her way.Lately my stuff has not been effective. Some days I find it hard to be at work. I find myself asking what would Terri I wish I could see you walking down the hallway.When I have a a situation I can not not resolve I ask myself if Terri were here or I wish I could ask her.I miss you so much and I talk to you all the time.So many things in my little world remind me of you. I hate being without you there is such a void in my life.You use to bring me such joy and laughter when you made no sense when you would give the punch line of a joke,when you had trouble pronouncing something.You brought me a lot of joy and happiness and I thank god that I had you in my life. We were a really good pair you and I. I Love you so much and I miss you that sometimes my heart aches so much. I hope and pray that you think of me often tell my dad ,mom,Patsy and little Ray I say hey and I miss them all Good night my partner in crime Love you so much peepers.

Hey Terri its me again. It hasnt been very good for me lately.The more the days pass the more I miss you. I remember all the things we did together when we were young and all the things we did as adults and all the plans you and I had when it was going to be just you and me after the boys passed. The future only has me going it alone.I dont think a day goes by that I dont talk to somebody about you and me. Some days I can hardly breath knowing I am alone without my partner in crime.I would trade places with you if I could haveGod I miss you so much.One of the good things I have going for me is that at work I find a little peace because I remember walking down the hallways with you .We spent a whole lot of years together working with the schools and I would of not wanted it any other way.People at Pinon remember you with such love and kindness.You really were loved there everyone remembers you and how hard you worked, how good you were with the staff and what greatness you gave to the kids.I carry you in my heart every day and every night and if Im lucky I get to see you in my dreams.My heart and head are so lonely without you. I love you so much and my heart breaks not having you around Time to go remember that I love you ten fold. bye till later

Hello my Terri its me Paula (peepers) God I miss you so much.Some days its so hard for me to breath, the boys are doing ok still miss you and cant believe you are gone. We all try to help them but its hard to find the things to say to comfort them when I cant find comfort myself.I miss you so much at work walking in the school brings be so much sadness and comfort at the same time. Mr Yonker has his niece working there now and I commented how great they must have feel having a family member there with them but it makes me so sad because Im alone there now. I meant it when I told you I wanted to go with you everyone here has been great but you being gone is as painful and sad as when my dad died I never thought I would feel that sort of pain again.I hate really hate being without you,there is such a void in my life. All I have now is memories memories of the life you and I shared.I thank God every day for you. Some days when I drive to school alone I cry all the way missing you Patsy my dad and mom even little Ray after all these years.You know Philip is on his way out too and I will be the last Sandoval left and I spend a few minutes a day trying to wrap my head around that I miss you and I love you always I will write again soon I love you Terri and I miss you so much that my heart aches all the time Bye write you soon

Its me again.Sorry its been so long but yo just can not believe all that has gone on lately. Today was a bad day for me all I did was about you and Patsy and how lonely I am without you guys. Not having you in my life just isnt the same. Berna and Zoe are having a really hard time dealing with the fact you are not around.Patsy s death was so hard for them but yours has left them so hurt and sad that moving on has really kept them from moving on. Their depression worries me some days I feel they may never recover from you dying. Everyone is trying to move on but you played such an important part in all our lives that some days are hard to go forward.I miss you so much and I can not believe You are gone I hope that you know how much I loved you and how much meaning you gave to my life.Being at Pinon helps because we spent so much time together there,everyone misses you at school and always remember all your hard work and what a wonderful person you were.Most of the time I love being there because we were always together lonely when I walk down those halls by myself. I miss you and think of you all the time,you gave my life meaning I love you write you soon.

Its me again Paula,you can not imagine how much I miss you.When I first went back to school I felt okay.I knew that by being there you were with me.I could feel you all around,but lately a void has been with me.I feel so alone sometimes but when that feeling comes I have the good people from Pinon around me and I get so much comfort because they really love you and miss you. Richard and Louie are taking it day by day. They are trying to keep things going but its a house not a home think, they are trying to keep the place the same as if you were still there.I want you to know I will keep an eye on them.Zoe is really having a hard time she misses you so much remember how hard she took Patsys death will yours is ten times harder.You were her grandma too she is always asking Richard for some of your stuff.Bernadette always have you on her mind she always says remember when Terri said this or did that.Albert like always suffers quietly and worries about Louie. You will always be in my heart and mind just like Patsy,Little Ray Dad and mom are If I ever did anything to hurt you in anyway I hope you know I never meat too.You are and were my guiding light. I love you yesterday today and tomorrow and forever.always me Paula

Its a pretty hard day for me today.Thinking of you and how much I miss you.I see pictures of you in the past and pictures of you recently.We were pretty funky looking kids but we sure did love each other. If i could talk to you one more time I would remind you of how much I love you and being your big sister was the best thing that ever happened to me.Just to let you know my hip really feels light but now I have a heavy heart,the only time it stops hurting is when I think of all the wonderful times we spent together.I love you and carry you in my heart day and night awake or asleep. I love you!! Talk to you soon

Hey Terri it me Paula well it hasnt been an easy week for any of us.Our lives are such a void without you.If somehow we could turn back the clock it would be of happy times with you. Our lives were so much richer when you were here.We get through each day by remembering how much you were loved and how much we loved you.I went back to work because I feel you there.We walked down those halls .We laughed and talked and the people there knew how much we cared about each other.The day I went back all my students ran up to me and said how sorry they were that you passed away and they told me how much they loved me.I am so grateful that you convinced me to go work with you at Pinon. I feel you there with me In my head I see us walking down the hall and laughing and talking.I cherish every day that we spent together there.I love you and miss you and think of you night and day.The lose of you is as devastating as when I lost dad.I love the rest of the family but you two were the loved and important people in my life.I love you and miss and will carry you in my heart till we see each other again hopefully I will see you dad mom little Ray and Patsy.I love you and will talk to you soon Bye Paula

Terri its me Paula,I love you and miss you so much that I can hardly breath.I promise you I will take care of Louie and Richard. You were the best part of me,do you remember why my nickname was peepers its because when you were small you couldnt say Pauline it always came out Peepers.You gave me a lifetime of memories thats the only reason I am able to go on without you.I will write again soon I love you you forever.Losing you has made me so sad that when I think of you I cant catch my breath.I love you and I am grateful that I was with you when God took the most beautiful flower from earth. Some day we will be together and pick up where we left off always together Joined at the hip Love you Pauline
