Mom, i will miss you. I will cherish my memories of us going to meetings and the assemblies together. I love you. You rest in peace and i will see you in paradise.
To the Saenz Family, I’m so sorry to hear of Elvira’s passing. She was such a kind sweet person. She and my Mom, Reba G. Became really close friends when she lived on Abe Lincoln in San Antonio. They would go shopping together and to the meetings together. When she moved back to McAllen, they kept in touch by phone calls. Even though we are going to miss Elvira, we know she is no longer
suffering and she has the hope of being in God’s memory, because “she is precious in his eyes” Psalms 116:15 May you find comfort in knowing that your dear one is safe in the memory of God, who will remember every detail about her and bring her back to you again. Jehovah, the God of all comfort will remove all
grief and provide permanent consolation when “all those in the memorial tombs will hear ( Jesus) voice and come out”! (John 5:28,29)
FROM THE FAMILY OF ADELINA YARRITO OUR DEEPEST CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY OF MS. ELVIRA R. SAENZ LOTS OF LOVE AND PRAYERS RIP MS SAENZ MCALLEN, TX
I loved my grandma so much. When i tell people about her i always say that she was the one who woke up every morning to make homemade tortillas for her family. She had a whole line of mexicans with butter and salt ready and would get mad when she couldnt even get a whole stack going but laughed and loved us every time… Ive learned how hard life could be without your family but those memories are what get me through this tough world everyday and those memories of who she was as a woman a mother and a grandmother is what make me as a person. Ive learned what is really important in life is cherish the things and people u do have because they can be gone in an instant. God take care of her and i know she and butchy and lorenzo warch over me. I love my family . Rest in peace now grandma. Amen
My sincere condolences to the family and friends of Elvira Saenz. My prayers are with you and yours
