This is Annette Baez’s Celebration of Life
on behalf of her Daughter Janice Cruz
 
She gave me the best
 
She gave me the best Siblings 
She gave me the best Wela
She gave me the best Dad
She gave me the best Aunt
She gave me the best Uncle
She gave me the best Cousins 
She gave me the best Nieces and Nephews 
She taught me how to live life to the fullest
She taught me how to work hard in life for everything I want 
She taught me how to love hard
She taught me to be grateful
She taught me to live life without regrets 
She taught me to live as peaceful as possible 
She taught me respect is vital 
She taught me how to communicate 
She taught me how to be happy
She taught me that health is the most important thing
She taught me that mental health is what alters your life
She taught me the importance of protecting myself
 
I am the woman I am today because of her also 
 
How you ask?
She taught me how breaking generational cycles is extremely important 
She taught me all these invaluable lessons by the life she led (for those that know, know)
 
They say that suffering leads to greatness 
How that applies to her is the great legacy that her children and grandchildren will continue 
 
She’s finally free with the rest of our loved ones
God and Wela knows what’s in my heart
Mom, I loved and will always love you
