GARCIA -- Tonnie Antonia Garcia December 1921 - October 5, 2002 Dear Mom, one year has come and gone since you left us. I often wondered why you made the decisions that you did. Little did I realize you were trying to open my eyes, due to my own blindness. Not one day goes by that I don't think of you. I can still close my eyes and see you and will never forget your last words you spoke to me telling me, "you loved me". More than anything I will always know deep in my heart that was always the truth; and knowing that my life will always be complete. I was truly blessed to have you for my mother. May you and Arthur rest in peace. God bless! Love, miss you deeply. Your daughters, Darlene and Debbie
