Querida María Eugenia. Sirvan mis palabras para darte las gracias. Gracias por tus consejos y serenidad . Gracias por tus charlas sobre libros mientras te tomabas tu segundo café mañanero. (Gracias a ti me enteraba de todas las novedades literarias) Gracias por preguntar sin opinar y de escuchar sin juzgar. Gracias por tu paciencia ante mi falta de tiempo. Gracias por tu independencia y sinceridad . Gracias por enseñarme que el amor es libertad, comprender y respetar Y sobretodo gracias por confiar en mí, abrirme tu corazón y dejarme conocerte. La lejanía no impidió querernos. No pares de volar. Te voy a echar mucho de menos.

Gracias, Maria Eugenia, por tu amistad. Siempre recordaré tu admirable fortaleza interna, tu sinceridad, tu buen corazón, tus energías y buen sentido del humor. DEP 🙏❤️

we miss you. ❤️

we miss you. ❤️

I met Maria Eugenia when we were both teenagers, in her beautiful hometown of San Sebastian, in the Basque Country. We became friends right away. I was struck by her exuberance, her cheerfulness, her kindness, and the uprightness of her principles. We met every summer with the usual group of friends until university allowed it. She told me about her humanitarian missions in Africa with love and solidarity. She always preserved these qualities and passed them on with great patience and love to her children and granddaughters. I was sorry not to be able to meet her this year on our trip to Spain. I will miss her so much and will always be in my prayers, along with her family, to whom I send my deepest condolences. José Maria Marino - Mazara del Vallo - Sicily - Italy

Maria my friend, I can’t believe you’re not here. You became a true caring friend in such a short time. You pushed me to do those walks at Arkles & tolerated my grizzling. You cared for so many people with love and devotion. My love to Reyes Gabriel and girls. Rest now Maria

Maria was a beautiful, passionate, loving lady. She loved her kids and grandkids the most. Always had time to help make them be the best people in this world. Thank you Maria are your love rest well. Alofa atu ❤️

You will never be forgotten mum. I love you endlessly xx
