I remember you Gregoria. I attended school with your children, and I particularly remember Margaret, Lydia, Nieves, and Fidel. I remember you Gregoria – I remember you and I were picking cotton in the hot sun in the cotton fields near Lockhart. You worked so hard and at the end of the day we were all so exhausted. Now, may you rest in peace.
