Tita Pepita will always be remembered for the legacy she left behind, being all the genealogical work she did over probably decades. All of us Godinez family will be forever grateful that she shared it with us. I am so happy that I was able to finally meet her a few years ago during a trip to the States. To dear Frank and his family and his sisters and their family, please accept our condolences and know that you are in our thoughts. Love and big hugs from Rebecca (Becky Godinez) and Andrew Montague in Australia

Josie was truly a light in the world! I always appreciated her kind heart and love for her family and friends. Every time we talked she spoke of her faith. I imagine that she is dancing in heaven! I pray that God blesses you all at this sad time with many happy memories and hope for the future. love, Ellie
Georgina Orozco says
My beautiful auntie and I have something in common! We shared a passion for dance! We talked about, and shared, our many memorable experiences! I used to say that I would've loved to have been born in the 40s because I loved the 'swing' years! but, by the same token, I also loved the rock-n-roll music of the 50s. When my Tita Pepita met, fell in love with, and eventually married, my Uncle Frank, she had a wonderful dancing partner… and I didn't… made me quite jealous! I found both of them living and dancing, happily ever after! I am positive they are once again enjoying themselves in that happy dancing ground in the sky! I love you both, Tita Pepita and Uncle Frank, and will miss you for many a day. Please look down on us kindly…On behalf of the Orozco family, both here in the US and in Australia, I offer my sincerest condolences and heartfelt sympathies to JoAnna and her family, Frank and his family, and Maria Teresa and her family. If there's anything I can do to ease your sorrow, please do not hesitate to call me. Sending you lots of hugs and loads of love… Gin, Gina, Ginnie, Georgina Orozco-Zaragoza
