We just got news this morning that Lorena’s Tia Mina and Grandma Conchita’s sister passed away in Monterrey after a short illness. She is the second of twelve children (Conchita was the first) with whom Conchita, who was just a year older than Mina, was very, very close to her for their entire lives. Lorena’s father, Grandpa Lauro, was a first cousin to Mina’s husband, Tio Wilo. Lauro actually introduced Wilo to Mina. Mina died two days short of exactly 30 years after Wilo. Mina is the first of her nine siblings to pass. Everyone, of course, is saddened, but she led a good life dedicated to God for which we are all grateful.
