RIP Pina
A few years ago, I had the privilege of meeting Pina and Roger.
Pina was always gracious and kind in her demeanor. She often spoke lovingly about her children and later her grandchildren. She also had an enormous love for her parents and took great pride in being one of their caregivers.
This loss is truly immeasurable. My sincere condolences go out to her immediate family, her parents, her siblings, and all of her nieces and nephews.
My heartfelt condolences to Claudine and her family on the passing of her dear mother, Pina.
I had the pleasure of meeting Pina during her visits to Claudine. She was always so warm and cheerful. Those brief conversations I shared with her are something I will always remember fondly.
She will be deeply missed. Wishing the family strength and peace during this difficult time.
