1st Anniversary of our daughters death we all visited the cemetary together.
journaling reads: Veronica Villarreal
June 25, 1977 - November 11, 2001
La Vista Memorial Park - National City, CA

A year later Gilbert and I visted the cemetary to remember her. Joining us there is her Grandmother Mona, my oldest daughter Alia, Richard, and their two beautiful children: Teressa and Richard Jr.

Veronica was only 24 years old when she died. She was only with us for a short time but longer than any of her doctors ever thought she would be. She was born with renal tubular acidosis which, is a condition where the kidneys cannot filter the sodium in the blood. She left behind four children - Jazmyn, Jared, Gabrielle, and David Jr.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glint on snow
I am the sun on ripening grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awaken in the mornings hushed light,
I am the upfling of birds in flight
I am the soft star that shines at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry I am not there
I did not die
