Maria was such a compassionate person, always thinking of others. She recently told me how she had been praying for me about my sleepless nights. She couldnt stop talking about all the good things of you Marv, and her love for you. You were truly her strenghth,her light, her source. May you be comforted in your time of need.

Please accept my condolences. Maria and I have known each other for over 40 yrs. I considered her a good friend. She was an amazing woman and a wonderful nurse. Her patients always loved her. She will be sadly missed. God bless all of you during this difficult time.##imported-begin##Lois VanDyke##imported-end##
My prayers and thought are with the family. I new Maria just a short time. Since the first time I had met her I knew that she was a special lady and had a heart of gold. We will miss her deeply but God has chosen someone so caring and loving she will be a special angel for him..... God bless to all the family. May your heart be filled with all special moments spent with Maria, and may God help you through all the hurt and emptiness.
