"She's At Peace, And So Are We"
Obituary: Dolores Aguilar. [Vallejo, California, CA Times Herald on 8-16-08 and verified as true.]
“Dolores had no hobbies, made no contribution to society and rarely shared a kind word or deed in her life.
“I speak for the majority of her family when I say her presence will not be missed by many, very few tears will be shed, and there will be no lamenting over her passing. Her family will remember Dolores and amongst ourselves we will remember her in our own way which were mostly sad and troubling times throughout the years.
“We may have some fond memories of her and perhaps we will think of those times, too. But I truly believe at the end of the day ALL of us will really only miss what we never had, a good and kind mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. I hope she is finally at peace with herself.
“As for the rest of us left behind, I hope this is the beginning of a time of healing and learning to be a family again. There will be no service, no prayers and no closure for the family she spent a lifetime tearing apart. We cannot come together in the end to see to it that her grandchildren and great-grandchildren can say their goodbyes. So I say here for all of us, GOOD BYE, MOM.”
[Daughter: We were kept “unfed, poorly clothed and completely terrorized.”]

Reminds me of a guy who worked at the shipyard with me, the most despicable (sp?) person in these parts, who committed suicide and the running joke was that he spent three weeks in the morgue before a family member came down ot identify him.
Another fellow who died, a mean guy with no family and no money, was exposed for two nights on the pool table of his favourite watering hole. Another running joke.
