Celia Gurule

During the days that made the years, and years that made the decades, we always felt something loving, warm, wonderful, and understanding. It was a feeling that became familiar to us. It was a feeling that made us warm during cold days, and gave us strength in our weakest moments. Now that our mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, Celia Gurule, has left us, we know that she was the source and center of that feeling. Every room will always be a little emptier, the chile a little cooler, and our hearts a little heavier without her. No words will ever express our love and appreciation for her. She has had a profound and unimaginable effect on all of our lives and we will always be grateful to have known such an extraordinary person. Our mother. Our grandmother. Our great grandmother.
