Walking each generation through old family photos was a treasured event she shared. She was such a giving soul and had many friends and neighbors all around Waco and Texas that cherished her. Consuelo loved the Lord and was her family's strong and constant prayer warrior. It was a beautiful thing to hear her sing praise hymns and to hear her read from her bible. Consuelo always loved looking at, smelling and admiring God's creation of flowers and plants. She could spend hours walking around a nursery studying each bloom and its colors and textures and telling you how to care for them. Her family and friends remember she was always ready to share her time, her home, her cooking and love with everyone. She truly lit up any room with her humble, quiet, yet playful spirit that we all adored and enjoyed. She w1ll be deeply, deeply missed. Consuelo was also a strong and intelligent woman with unending endurance and patience. She is in heaven with her Lord and Savior so we praise the name of Jesus and are thankful He gave us the most amazing mother, grandmother and friend.
