On behalf of the family of Anita Blanco Subia

In honor of our dear beloved mom - the family would like to extend our most gracious thank you to all the family, friends and guests who joined us during our mom’s passing. Your kindness, love, and support were most appreciated during this very sad and surreal moment in time. To the family, it was a reminder that “no man lives to himself ”, so to know my mom touched many people and many came to support her children during her time to heaven was a blessing. All the beautiful conversations of support gave us strength during this time, so words cannot express our gratitude.
