Eliane loved to write Poems, sing songs with a tremendous voice that carried out beautiful melodies and went as far as recording her own song dedicated to her Granddaughter Antonella.

Later Ingrid her daughter and David her Son in Law who she Loved so much, took her to a Recording Studio of a Famous Artist Friend of Ingrid who was part of the Band Gipsy King who Played Bamboleo the Famous song. She Was for sure on the Hands of Fame.

Eliane lived a beautiful Life together with her family and spent time in Houston, TX, Chicago, IL and Orlando, FL.

During her visits to Chicago from Houston she would spend amazing time with Ingrid and David as they always gathered all together with their children Claire, Sojie and Colin and spent beautiful time during Holidays, Birthdays and Friends Gatherings. Later mom would move to Chicago in the care of Ingrid and David and spent an amazing time there. Ingrid was the daughter that a mother could never ask for… Thank you Sister for the Love you a David gave Mom.

Now comes the part that can never be forgotten and that is the Love of a Second Daughter to my mom, who earned her Wings of Life and that stood next to her for years as she was there to help, love and care. Ana Malfi my wife was the other daughter who carried her compassion, help during health time and gave her moral support during down time. Ana spent hours having conversations with my mom, they both told stories to each other and laughed during that bonding. The Children were all part of her gatherings and visitations as Ana was very strong to keep the family together and get the children to enjoy her Grand Mom. Ana was there most of the time during the week to make sure my mother was taking care of and that she was healthy.

Our oldest brother Juan Carlos which Mom had a Special Place in her Heart for him as he was her first boy. Mom spent most of her years in Houston and had John visit her to see how both Emilio and her were doing, they would gather during Holidays and Birthdays and even traveled out of town for a Family gathering. John was always there to help even when my dad got sick, taking our mom from place to place. Mom was surrounded by His children Vanessa and Daniel who she loved her very much. Both Vanessa and Daniel would spend time with their grandmother during Holidays and special occasions.

She was the Best Grand Mother all our children could have ever had. Antonella, Claire, Sojie and Vanessa were the most beloved girls for mom who brought with their sweetness and charisma many times of joy and laughter, but never the less to say that her most precious Shining Armors were….. Colin, Stefano and Daniel who made Grand mom laugh from silly things they did, who listened to her stories and also had the chance to get grammatically corrected when a sentence was not proper for her. Our mom was a teacher of many Languages to us and taught us to follow the best path in life.

Mother had a special place in her heart and never forgot about her Beloved Husband Emilio in which they spent an eternity together, they travelled the World, had beautiful times full of stories and experiences and were in business together for a better Future.

Now she will rest in peace next to her Beloved Husband and Surrounded by her Beautiful Family who will always visit their grave site for Prayers to climb to the high heaven. Mom fly with your wings as you are the Angel who will always be with us…… We love you forever, your Children, Ingrid, TaƟ and Jacques
