To my best friend Navia, I will you miss with all my heart. I enjoyed our friendship since we met in Wisconsin. Every year I came and stop by to visit you in Weslaco... we enjoyed the visits, always had a good time going to have a raspa. You will be dearly missed. -From Ramona Villarreal
You were never just my great aunt — you were like a grandmother to me, a second home, and one of the biggest blessings in my life. Some of my favorite childhood memories were made with you. From reading books together at the library, going to theater plays, walking downtown Weslaco, picking up pizza, swimming at the Esmilda house, playing tea parties and dress up, to making breakfast together — every moment with you was filled with love, laughter, and warmth.
You were always there cheering us on at every dance recital, always supporting us, encouraging us, and making us feel so loved. You helped build not only our childhood memories, but also the foundation of who we are today. You taught us kindness, strength, family, and most importantly, faith. Your love for God and for family shined through everything you did, and that light will stay with me forever.
Thank you for the comfort you gave, the lessons you taught, the traditions you created, and the unconditional love you showed so effortlessly. You made ordinary days feel special, and your presence brought peace and joy wherever you were.
No matter how much time passes, I will forever carry your love, your wisdom, and the beautiful memories we shared in my heart. I am so grateful God gave me you.
I love you forever and always.
My Tia Navia- your example showed me unwavering love and a caring spirit. I’ll miss sharing aguacate con tortillas, playing chalupa, or hearing you say “hello my friend!” I carry your blessings with me. Salud to you hermosa. Give mama Paula a hug for me ❤️ - Bianca
I am so, so sorry to hear about Tía’s passing.
I truly cherished every visit with her—she had a way of making everyone feel instantly welcome, no matter the time or day.
Her kindness, warmth, and gentle spirit were felt by all who knew her.
She was a beautiful soul, inside and out, always willing to open her❤️ heart and her home to others.
Those moments shared with her will always remain special and close to my heart.
May she rest in RIP

My deepest condolences to all the family. I will always remember our sweet Navia with her big beautiful smile! 😍 When we would visit her, she always had someting to offer, sweet bread, fruit, or candy, etc. At Christmas time she would give a small bag of candy. Some of the candy was the little round colorful hard Mexican candy with a tiny spicy seed in the center. Thank you, Navia for all the beautiful memories. Rest in peace and may perpetual light shine upon you! 🙏 ✝️ 🌹
