I, too remember Friendly Car Wash, that is where I first met Nestor, and I believe you as well Nancy. I loved your mom as my own and you know I always called her Mami or Mamacita. I feel like I lost another mom. I am so saddened that you have to endure this again after such a short time. I believe she needed to be with the love of her life. They will be dancing above us and preparing a future home for when we are ready to go. She was truly a beautiful soul inside and out. I believe God's timing is perfect. From selling their home to moving to Shady Hills. Everything fell into place. She and Papi are at peace now and back together. God welcomed them with open arms to their forever home. I am sorry for your losses to you and your brothers and the rest of the family, if I try to write them all, I'd need a book. Love, peace and hope to all. Most of all my blessings and prayers to everyone suffering during this time. Love you,
Maryann (Ciani) Mignoli
I worked at Friendly Car Wash for 4 years. At that time, there were many young boys & girls who worked there--both full and part-time. Mrs. D. was "mom" to so many of us. She was funny, warm and nurturing. She made us feel that we were all part of a family. Nestor, Steven and Leo--thank you for sharing your mom with us. I know how much of a void she is leaving in your family, but we are grateful to know that she is united with her beloved in the presence of our Savior.
