My dearest Mother, Lila, Teonila Altagracia Martinez,

Words seem to fail me as I try to capture the essence of the incredible woman you were. A lifetime wouldn't be enough to express the depth of your love, your strength, and the immeasurable impact you had on my life and the lives of so many others.

You weren't just the best mother; you were a force of nature, a beacon of light, a woman who embodied grace, resilience, and unwavering love. Your memory will forever be etched in my heart, a constant source of inspiration and comfort.

The pain of your passing is profound. Your three grandchildren, your friends, and your family – we all feel your absence keenly. We miss your laughter, your wisdom, your comforting presence. But even amidst our sorrow, I find solace in the knowledge that you lived a life full of purpose, love, and impact. You truly were Mother of the Year, and so much more.

You've earned your place in heaven, my beautiful, gorgeous, strong mother. Until we meet again, may you rest peacefully. We love you beyond measure.

To the woman of my life, Lila, the best smile I ever seen. If I’ve forgotten anything I write in your heart my dear mother. Till we meet again the lady that was born with the flowers.
