Dear Dorothy, Mila, Michelle,
With tears, sorry and shock got this Obituary when searching for Mila, my sister whereabouts. Have been doing this for days, but could not trace her whereabouts. Suddenly, Jaime’s Obituary came to being. I am very very sad, unhappy for not tracing Jaime, Mila and Dorothy — before this happened. How I wished I was able to say goodbye and thank him personally for taking care of Lorna when Lorna was studying at Sarah Lawrence. Jaime was the strengtht, the anchor, the guide, and inspiration that encouraged me to enrol (following Lorna’s wishes too) Lorna at Sarah Lawrence and graduate from there. Miss saying goodbye to Jaime, by a few days only.
Jaime is now joining his Mom, Lola Maring and our father, Papa Ricafort. How I wish, I was able to see Jaime first before he left us.
Mila — we are all getting old, especially me, want and need to see and be with you even for a short visit only — can we do that, please. You, Michelle, Dorothy, your son may want to visit Washington — we are right here in Lansdowne — 571 236 7759; 703 618 0345. Please call. Need your number too.
Jaime — will pray for you. Know, being an excellent husband, father, brother, you are now Up there, looking down on all of us. Will never forget all the help, support and assistance you have given to Lorna when she was at SLC. Thank you very much.
Love you, as if, my own son.
Dorothy — my sincere condolences; Mila, my sister, miss you, we lost contact when Lola Maring and Papa died, but in spirit, in thought, and in heart, with you and love you —
Tessie Ricafort (formerly Rivera, Calderon, now Alarcon). My e-mail address is tulong7pj@yahoo.com
