Aaliyah - Infant - 04-12-2012 Medina

AALIYAH MARIE MEDINA, an infant, passed away on Thursday, April 12, 2012. Little Angels, When God Calls Little Children To Dwell With Him Above, We Mortals Sometimes Question The Wisdom Of His Love. For No Heartache Compares With The Death Of A Child, Who Does So Much To Make Our World Seem So Wonderful And Mild. Perhaps God Tires Of Calling The Aged To His Fold, So He Picks A Rosebud Before It Can Grow Old. God Knows How Much We Love Them And So He Takes But Few. To Make The Land Of Heaven More Beautiful To View. Believing This Is Difficult Still Somehow We Must Try, The Saddest Word Mankind Knows Will Always Be “Goodbye”. So When A Little Child Departs, We Who Are Left Behind Must Realize God Loves Children Angels Are Hard To Find. May The Grace Of God Be With Our Angel As She Makes Her Way Home To Heaven. She was preceded in death by her great-grandfather, Vicente Atencio; great-aunt, Micalia Atencio; great-great-grandmother, Amada Medina and great-uncle, Michael Naranjo. She is survived by her parents, Nina Atencio and Kevin Medina; maternal grandparents, Vicente and Janice Atencio; paternal grandparents, Donna Naranjo and Joseph Medina; great-grandparents, Carmen Coul, Mino Abeyta, Viola Atencio, Mr. and Mrs. Mike Naranjo and Robert and Norma Evans; great-great-grandparents, Carmelita Naranjo and Pilar Archuleta; aunts, Camila Atencio, Jennifer Atencio and Desiree Medina; uncles, Vicente Atencio, Antonio Atencio and Brian Gaston; cousin, Syniyah Gaston; God-parents, Vicente Atencio and Anika Sandoval and many other relatives. Funeral service will be held on Monday, April 16, 2012 at 5:00 p.m. at the New Hope Church in El Llano. Burial to follow at La Villita Cemetery. The family would like to thank everyone for everything from the bottom of their hearts, may God bless you all, from the Atencio, Medina and Naranjo Family. An Angel in the book of life wrote down my baby’s birth and whispered as she closed the book, “Too Beautiful For Earth”. The family of Aaliyah Marie Medina has entrusted their loved one to DeVargas Funeral Home & Crematory of the Española Valley.\r\n
