    I'm deeply sorry for your loss M. Pena, as well as for your family and friends. May your beautiful wife rest in peace. Sending prayers.

    I met Juanita with Mayito when she was just about 15 years old, and from that very first day I knew she would be a loving wife and devoted mother. I will always remember her children—so well-presented and respectful—such a true reflection of the home filled with love and values that she and Mayito built together. I deeply admire the beautiful family they created. My heartfelt condolences, and I wish her children a lifetime filled with the same love, peace, and stability their parents shared.
