Cuando deba partir por un corto tiempo por favor no sufran ni derramen lagrimas y abracense a su tristeza a traves de los anos pero superenla valientemente con una sonrisa. Y por mi bien y en mi nombre sigan viviendo y hagan todo de la misma manera no alimente su soledad con dias vacios sino lo contrario, llenen cada hora que pasa de la mejor manera. Realicense en el regocijo y en el consuelo y yo en cambio los consolare y los mantendre cerca de mi y nunca, nunca teman morir porque yo les esperare siempre en el cielo.
Silvia will always be remembered	Siempre te recordaremos
