God has given each one of us the blessed privilege of being present here to stand in agreement with each and everyone of the works of have that God and my sister, Petra have given each one of her children, to express the love and joy she inspired in her life times in each facet of her life. This is the biggest way she shows what she, through the Love of Christ, and though her children have expressed beautifully of a plan of her life fulfilled. And all I can saw is “Thank you Lord for Petra.” Matt. 7:16 “You will know them by their fruits.” Petra’s character is shown here today by the love her children are expressing for her today, and no other words will identify her better.

TO THE FAMILY OF PETRA PATINO,
MY FAVORITE MEMORY IS BEING OVER TO HER HOUSE AND SEEING HOW REAL MEXICAN TAMALES ARE MADE:) WHAT A LABOR OF LOVE FOR A FAMILY AS BIG AS THEIRS! AND LEARNING HOW TO COOK TORTILLAS OVER THE OPEN FLAME ON THE STOVE. LOL!
I ALSO HAVE A MEMORY OF HER AND BIG RAY (AS I KNEW HIM BY) HAVING FRIENDS OVER SINGING MEXICAN MUSIC AND PLAYING THEIR GUITARS ON THE PATIO IN THE BACKYARD.
SO BLESSINGS TO HER WONDERFUL KIDS AND THEIR FAMILIES BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN AND STILL ARE... A BLESSING TO ME! TAKE CARE, MY CONDOLENCES TO YOU ALL.
LOVE YA!##imported-begin##Vickie Foster##imported-end##

Our condolence to the Patino’s Family...a friend of many years to the Pena’s family...I can remember Petra y Raymundo speaking with my parents over some issue’s of the club or about Las Fiesta’s Patria’s…dancing here and there….We are profoundly glad that Petra lived. We are glad that we saw her face and felt the glow of her friendship and love. We cherish the memory of her words and deeds and character. No one person can sum up the life of another...life is too precious to be passed over with mere words which ring empty...rather it must remain as it is remembered by those who loved and watched and shared...for such memories are alive, unbounded by events of birth and death...and as living memories, we possess the greatest gift one person can give another...it’s each of us, that the living memories of Petra's life are committed...to our hearts and minds go the enduring remembrances of her life...we honor the life of Petra by living, ourselves, more nobly and loving in the days ahead just as she has. May God Bless you Petra... The Pena's Family Gustavo Pena Jr., Mirlda Pena and son Ramiro##imported-begin##Gustavo Pena Jr.##imported-end##
Hey there Mamacita,
It took 30 years but you are finally in the loving arms of Dad again. (I'm sure he hasn't had a dance partner since) Papa Simon, Mama Julie, your son Ray Jr and your grandson Ray must be so happy to see you. What a reunion and what a beautiful extra special time to meet the Lord...at Christmas season. All of his creation is yours o "see" now !! Relax and Enjoy
Love, Nel##imported-begin##Nel ##imported-end##
