My heart felt condolences to the family. Pina was a truly beautiful person inside and out. I will never forget her kindness to my Daughter during her many health struggles. Pina always provided a caring and loving ear. In spite of the fact that she was dealing with her own life threatening issues. Heaven has gained an angel. We on earth have lost a beautiful light.

Pina was and will forever remain a beacon of kindness to those she knew and loved. She was always the first to offer you a place to stay when you needed it, she opened her heart and her home to anyone and everyone and always made you feel like you were loved unconditionally. Her deep laugh was genuine and comforting, her grin contagious. Pina was a collector of misfit teens, always giving to those who needed it the most. She holds a special place in so many hearts and will never be forgotten.
