Condolence from Ehren C. Cruz on February 28th, 2014 9:13 am

When I think of Titi Miriam, I think of a truly Awakened spirit. Awakened to the beauty, bliss, and infinite happiness that can be found in the sacred experience of being alive. Her strength of character, her graceful means of being, her boundless compassion, and endless fount of love is a blessing she shared selflessly with all who knew her. She will always remain a source of wisdom and inspiration we shall all aspire to. She is a light that will always burn brightly in my heart. As she moves into this next cycle of being, I ask we never forget how she lived…and also remember how she passed on her own terms through the power of her love for us. When all said she couldn’t make it a day longer, she persevered without an inkling of doubt or fear. She now remains in a realm of bliss, yet her essence will forever be a part of our souls. As the wise Lao Tzu once said, "Music in the soul Can be heard throughout the Universe." Listen closely to the rhythms of your beating heart, it is there that the song of her love remains for all time. In love, light, and harmony we remain forever connected through your memory and righteous spirit.

Renee and Ehren Cruz

Tata, Thank you for the fond memories. You were a spiritual champion, and encourager! How I loved spending time wth you, and listening to your words of Wisdom! God was always number one in your book, and you were a true example of a follower and doer in Christ. Your joy and laughter in the Lord was contagious, and came out of a deep love for Him. I will always keep you alive in my heart, You have arrived home safely, and great is your reward! I’m comforted because I know that it’s not goodbye, and that I will see you again…….
Love, your Niece Helen.

Aunt Miriam was a Virtuous Women.
She was clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughed without fear of the future.
When she spoke her words were wise,and she gave instructions with kindness.
Her children will stand and call her blessed and her husband will always praise her.
There are many virtuous and capable women in the world, but Aunt Miriam surpassed them all.
Proverbs 31:25-29

We love you Aunt Miriam
you were a great example!!
Ivette, Sam, Brandon, Samantha and Harmony
