Funerals in Mexico are very different from those in the states...None of the priest in town were available to have a mass for Trini, so José stood up in front of her casket and read a Psalm and then Bill had a prayer for Trini and the family. The hearse pulled in and the mourning processional left the house were the wake had taken place to walk to the cemetery.
Because we had Trini's kids with us, we drove so we could meet the procession as they arrived. In the morning, Trini's brothers, Jesús and José had dug her grave in the cemetery.
Julisa loved her floral kleenex on the way to the cemetery.

The mourners passed the casket for one last time and then her brothers and brother-in-law mixed cement on-site to bury Trini.
Through this very difficult time, there have been moments of joy. The other night we didn't have any p.j.s that would fit Julisa, so she put on one of my tank tops, crawled into bed and just giggled and giggled. 
Thanks for all the prayers for the family and for our CVE family. God has been Good and we trust His Goodness will continue to sustain us.
