Sending this poem to Monette's family to help in their grief especially to  Mario Villarin and their children. My thoughts and prayers to you.

Turn Again To Life

If I should die and leave you here a while,

Be not like others sore undone, Who keep long vigil by the silent dust.

For my sake turn again to life and smile,

Nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do

Something to comfort other hearts than thine.

Complete these dear unfinished tasks of mine

And I perchance may therein comfort you.

by Mary Lee Hall

My heart is shattered knowing I wont see her bright smile again. 10 years of working alongside her, sharing laughter and countless memories. Grateful for every moment we shared. Her kindness, generosity and unwavering support meant the world to me. She was more than a colleague, she was a dear friend, a sister. I'll miss our endless chats, our tsismisan. I'll never forget our last long talk on Dec 19, it still brings a smile to my face. Thank you Ramona for being there when i needed it the most. I'll always remember you forever in myheart.

To Mario, her loving children and grandchildren, my deepest condolences. May we all find comfort in the love and memories we shared with Ramona, and may she rest in peace with our Almighty.
