Maria was my best friend in junior high. We were always back and forth at each other’s homes which were just a few blocks away from each other. She accompanied my family on several outings and camping trips, and we had the best times! What a great friend Maria was to my sister and I. We lost touch after high school, but last year she “found” my sister in Moreno Valley where we went to school, and the two of them and Kenny came over my house, and we had a WONDERFUL visit! And we were very impressed with Kenny and his excellent manners and positive outlook. This tragedy is so hard to understand because it makes absolutely no sense. I’m just thankful that after so many years apart we were able to get in one good last visit. Kenny, your Mom was so very proud of you. And she was indeed loved by all who met her. You must stay strong and persevere, and you will because you are your Mother’s son. God Bless, Annette Avila Heying & Jeannette Avila Mendoza
