KATHY ROBLES, 36, of Tucson, Arizona, passed away May 08, 2000.
I wonder why I wonder why
I was born to live and die,
Never seeing plain and clear
What it is I'm doing here.
The greatest times of my life is
In working towards the love of
my family and friends.
I have been challenged, but
I have met my challenge.
I have because God is always with me.
Nothing, absolutely nothing could be more
Fulfilling than to know
I am in God's presence,
And God is in the presence
of my loved ones. Our Mother, Sister, Daughter, Aunt, and Special Friend. We will always remember your bright smile and laughter you brought to many. She touched our hearts with the glow she carried with her everyday. We will miss her so very much.
Love always.
