I am so grateful to have had such a strong, smart, beautiful and independent grandmother. She was a pillar in my life and showed me unconditional love. It’s surreal to think I will never get to make her laugh again or hold her hand, but I know she is at peace. Love you always Grandma Mina ❤️

Although I do not know Maria’s mom, I’m sure she is an amazing person from the way she raised such a kind and loving daughter. In turn, Maria & Charles raised smart and considerate kids. My deepest condolences to the family. Celebrate her memories.
