I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Cardoza's passing. My favorite memory of her was every week when I came for my accordion lessons and she would find out I was on restriction for bad grades she would tell my Mother that even the worst people in prison get out for good behavior. Always my champion and a very kind lady. Our entire family will pray for all those friends and family of hers as she will certainly be missed. Mike, Sandi, and the Molash Family
