Background
As many of you know, our mom thought children were the best and most valuable treasures our planet had to offer. She couldn't get enough of them nor they of her. From sleepovers with
grandchildren, great-grandchildren, friends of those grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and godchildren to teaching in Children's Chapel and after-school Spanish, babysitting, nannying, and hosting parties, "Grandma Bina" would have happily spent all her waking hours with the littles among us. She listened, advised, uplifted, and above all, cherished all the young people in her life. And the laughter, so much laughter, the pee-your-pants kind of laughter was a joy to behold.
One of her dreams was to become a foster parent, but that never happened because life got so busy and full. It would please her to no end to know that with this memorial legacy her love for children will continue beyond her too few years on Earth.
Our hearts are broken, but our souls are calm because she is finally getting some good rest.
With Affection,
Tina, Erica, and Mando Contribute
