To the Family:
I am so sorry for your loss. For as long as I can remember, I have nothing but good memories of Tita Didding. She was always so kind and caring towards me from the time I was a little child and into adulthood. I had last spoke to her recently to let her know about the death of my parents. It was not an easy call. She was one of my Mom's Best Friends and Majong Buddies. I was so grateful for all the times she allowed me to sleep over and hang out with Joji and Joanne when we were still young kids. She was a beautiful woman inside and out with a Huge Heart.

With Love,
Julie Lawsin
