Ruth, no hay palabras que puedan consolarte en este momento de tanto dolor pero deberias de estar muy agradecida ante Dios ya que El te dio la dicha en disfrutar a Maria Cecilia por 21 años, yo en mi caso no tuve la oportunidad ni de ver nacer a mi criatura pero fue lo que Dios quizo pero estoy 100% seguro que ambas nos estan cuidando y velando por nosotros desde el mas alla. Que Dios te bendiga a ti y a Dave en este momento y siempre.
Maria Cecilia~ We have so many memories together I cant even describe what an amazing person I had the honor of knowing.From backstreet boys to all the trouble we got into over the years to boys in general to hours on the phone…its just too much to comprehend that youre gone.To love so open and completely the way you did is just unexplainable.The way you could turn any situation into something funny and just light up the room when it was dark and scary.I will miss you every minute of everyday forever.You are loved and missed by so many more people than u realized.ily 4ever.
Maria, you were a beautiful person, inside and out. I didn’t know you for very long, but I am blessed that you were in my life for the time that you were. You were really one of those rare, special people who was genuine and loving toward everyone you met. I know you are in a better place now and I pray for your family and friends who all miss you so very much.
Dear Parents of Maria,
Maria worked with and was a good friend of my daughter. We saw her often at VI and she was always so cheerful and friendly. She was a real bright spot in the world and I can’t imagine your pain at losing her. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
My dear friends, Ruth and David~
My heart is breaking with the news of your loss…’Holding you both up in prayer, with the hope that your beautiful smiling girl is now safely Home with our Lord, Jesus Christ! Love you both. s.
Dear Ruth and David,

Love to you and your family,
Debbie Bock and Jean Bock Amye’s mom and grandma.
I will always carry Maria’s memory with me. She was a big part of my life throughout high school and it feels like yesterday we were riding the bus together. Maria was an amazing person who had a great vibrancy about her that would light up a room. She was one of my first good friends when I moved to Lutz and I will never forget the first time I met her. She decided to play a silly game with me even though I had never spoken with her before. I used to joke with her about that day and how I thought she was a little strange; but her uniqueness was what I loved about her.
Maria filled her life with music and friends. I can remember her taking me to cd signings and following band members around concerts in order to get an infamous autograph from a much sought after lead singer! This of course was before we could drive and her mom would pile us girls into her car and give us rides to these different events. I will never forget those fond memories of chasing after different band members! Much of my taste in music was influenced from Maria and I am so glad that I was privileged enough to spend my teenage years hanging out with her and her family.
Maria I will miss you and I still can not believe that you are gone. I am sorry we grew apart after high school and I will always regret that. Thank you for all of the laughter and great memories that we shared. Thank you for the late night phone conversations about boys. Thank you for all of the notes you wrote to me in class. Thank you for being a wonderful friend! I will always cherish your memory. My heart goes out to your mom and dad in their time of need. You will be greatly missed MC and I will never forget you!

I did not know Maria Cecilia, but I know her cousin Marilu Vargas and this tragedy has touched my heart even thought I do not know this family. I am very sorry for your loss and I’ve prayed for your family since I found out. Now, Maria Cecilia is an angel in heaven looking out for your family here on earth. Keep your faith strong and may the Lord bless you.

We will miss you Maria, but I know you’ll be looking down on your Friends and Family and watching out for them.
My life willnever be the same without Maria. She was the angel who saveds my life and made me the person i am today. I lived and spent every waking minute with her up untill i moved. I moved beacuse she gave tme the strength to believe in myself. I will never forget her laugh her face, and most importantly the face she loved me for me and cared so much. -Katie
