I am so honored and blessed to have been your granddaughter. To bless you with 2 great grandchildren who got to grow up knowing you just as I did brought me so much joy.

Abuela Ofelia was a Saint at heart. She would give the shirt off her back to strangers, she always had a hug to give and a warm meal for your belly and she wouldn't dare go to sleep knowing her loved ones needed a roof over them or pillow under their head. She was full of life and had so many fond memories to share over her Spaghetti Sundays. Thank you Abuela for the best life possible and for all the memories and all the love in this life. I am going to miss you Nico & Nana were blessed with the best Abuelita & Abuelito tell abuelo how missed he has been and that Nico still remembers him by his fuzzy mustache xoxoxo yours truly Angela

Ofie, as we knew her was a loving and kind person. All our family thought she was awesome. Ofie’s brother Henry (Pete) was married to my Aunt Nena (Emily). Ofie knew no strangers and I will always remember her with love.

"Offie" was 13 or 14 yrs. old when I met her. We were neighbors on Howard and Green St, in West Tampa. Our families were friends and I remember that I always thought she was so pretty, and sweet, and that I wanted to be just like her when I grew up. Over the years we kept in touch, but not enough. As a student at Jefferson High School (the old Jefferson) I had an outstanding Algebra teacher, Mr, Rosete, and was told that he was MARRIED to Offie! Years later, we would meet at Jefferson High School events at which they were always together. When we saw each other it was like living back on Howard Avenue because we would reminisce and try to keep up with each other's families. I think that we both enjoyed "catching up". In August, 2019, We attended her 90th birthday party.
She looked beautiful, and was as sweet and gracious as ever. We talked a little, about the "old days", which she remembered clearly, but she was in her glory, talking and laughing with family and friends. That's the way I remember her now, and all the many stories and reminiscences will be in my heart always.

We hope you will have moments of peace to warm you in the coming days. We hope that you find some solace in kind words of friends and family. Most of all we hope that you feel comforted by just knowing we're thinking of you. So sorry for your loss.
