Condolences for the family of “Irene Pena Torres”
Thank you so much for your kind words.
May she Rest In Peace

Thank you Tio
Rest In Peace
Thank you
My Tia will always be remembered.
Thank you Cousin.
I remember the weekends we would spend at Tio Robert’s and Tia Irene’s home when we were younger. We always had a wonderful time.
It’s comforting to me to know that one day she will be brought back to a healthy life when she answers the resurrection call. Tia Irene will echo the words of Job found at Job 14:15 that say: “You will call and I will answer you….”
We all long for that day.

Many good memories were made when Robert and Irene would invite us to their home to enjoy a meal together or visit us for a cookout. Vacation to Mexico or skiing in the winter, there was always plenty of laughter and good times. Our family is saddened at your families loss but look forward to the time mentioned at Revelation 21:4-“…death will be no more”.
