Sisyer Lugo was like a mother of all mothers, beautiful and very wise. I cant remember her not smiing. Thank you for sharing yourself with me and all those around you and being a bright light.
Sis Lugo,
For the short time you touched my life it was Blessed and Enriched by knowing you. The encouraging words that you always had to share with me, has left an indelible mark upon my life. I KNOW that you are FOREVER happy. You KEPT THE FAITH and now the reward is yours!!!
To the family, Owen, Michelle, Ben, Amy and the rest of the family. You have my deepest sympathy for your loss. Words seem inadequate at such a time as this. I hope you find comfort in the fact that while you all may miss her, she now has Joy beyond compare, and her journey is done. May the legacy she left behind continue to live on through each of you, and if everyone lives a life dedicated to God as she did then there is the hope that everyone can meet again.

She was such a lovely lady and always had a delightful smile, she will be missed in our neighborhood. (Her brownies too.)
Sincerely, former neighbors Nick and Trudy Neutzman.
Valeria was truly a remarkable woman of God and she blessed me in more ways then she knew. She always had a smile on her face and an encouraging word. Her sense of humor got me through many long days at work. I'm very fortunate that not only did I get to share her love of chocolate treats, she also altered a bridesmaid's dress for me, my wedding dress and my sister in law's wedding dress over the years. There is comfort in knowing that since she is absent from the body she is present with the Lord. I pray for comfort for her family and friends during this time and know that she was loved by many people.
Sincerely,
Rosa Crumpton

My tender teacher:
We met 2 or 3 times a week at Pastor Frank & Jean LaCrosse's -Tacoma United Pentecostal Church, she was my teacher...of what? You may say, of "Life"...from the nursery; learning how to take care of my children/making peanut brittle; how not to burn it/how to dress: to present myself as a Godly women.
She was my teacher, sister & friend. A tender heart to lift me up...a soft answer, to calm my anxiousness...a gentle hand to steady me....a sweet smile of assurance...a whispered prayer, when I was for direction...a scripture when I needed an answer....& a very generous heart when I lacked self esteem. She was a women of tender mercies...so full of an inner Beauty from her Savior, did she keep it all to herself......Oh no, a thousand times no! A Virtuous women, a vessel of Honor who enjoyed sharing the Love of God with everyone she touched...we are privileged women to have known her.
She has stepped into the presence of the Lord, although I will miss her dearly...my heart rejoices....because I will see her again on those streets of gold, just beyond those pearly gates.
Aloha oe....until we meet again my tender teacher...my friend.
Hugs from the shores of Maui Hawaii,

I can't say enough of what a beautiful woman she is. I love her and she will truly be missed. To all the family, my hugs, tears, prayers and love go out to you. I feel the sadness even way over here in Virginia but we cam be comforted to know that our Heavenly father gets to enjoy her even more now. I know it's silly but I can just vision her serving the angels super yummy brownies and sewing extra fluff in the curtains of heaven~ All my Love Andrea Hall
It is a great privilege to honor this remarkable lady "A Woman of Worth" and give tribute to her life. Faithful, kind, generous and devoted to her Lord Jesus, Sister Lugo (as she was known in the church) spent her energy serving others: making peanut brittle, serving suppers, visiting the sick...she excelled as only a virtuous woman of her stature could. We will miss her, and send our love and prayers of comfort to the family.
Respectfully,
Rev. and Mrs. Frank R. La Crosse
