Maria Rojas July 5, 2011, 5:52 PM | Dear Matsumiya Family, Please accept our condolences for the loss of your mother, sister, grandmother. Im glad that we had the pleasure of knowing your mother and speaking to her at family functions. She was a kind and loving person. She raised a beautiful family and had many good years with all of you. Im sure that her heart was full of love knowing that her family was there to take good care of her when she was no longer able to care for herself and that her legacy will live on through her children, grandchildren and future generations. May she rest in peace as she waits to be reunited with her family again in Heaven. Love, Maria & Kevin Lyde |
