Our cousin Estrella was a woman of sincere faith which was natured by her own mother Paula, my late mother’s aunt and my great-aunt. Holy Scripture in John 14:2, The Lord in whom she placed her trust during her earthly years in this life, promised this: IN MY FATHER’S HOUSE ARE MANY MANSIONS; IF IT WERE NOT SO, I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU. I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU, I WILL COME AGAIN AND RECEIVE YOU TO MYSELF; THAT WHERE I AM, THERE YOU MAY BE ALSO. On 13 January 2018, the Lord arrived to call her to Himself and took her gently by the hand and she went forth to her heavenly mansion. She was reborn to everlasting life and is with all her loved ones, both family and friends. Let us remember, that whenever we mention her name, she will be there. Whenever we think about of her, she will be close by. Whenever we recall a humorous moment shared with her, she will enjoy that with us in spirit. Rest in Peace beloved Estrella. Until we all meet again (and we shall for those who believe) and may Perpetual Light shine upon you and all of our dearly departed.

Estrella was a very special lady and neighbor for the past eight years. I fondly remember her hiding a birthday or Christmas card in one of my entry plants when I was not home. She had the gift of making me smile by the thoughtful things she did. She loved life, her family and God, and she will be missed.

Estrella was our neighbor in Deep Creek for many years. She was a beautiful person, kind, thoughtful and compassionate, a sweet treasure. The world is a lovelier place because she touched it with grace and goodness. When you look up at the sky at night, it is full of stars and there are always some that shine a little brighter, like her. We will miss her very much. May God Bless her family during this difficult time.

How can we (neighborhood kids) forget all the "after dinner walks?Dona Estrella loved to walk and without us being aware, she was helping us stay active. Living a few houses down from the Brignoni's for many years I have many fond memories. My favorite on was that ever time I went in the house I saw a beautiful painting. She loved Jesus...and she expressed this by having a mural painting of "The Lord is my Shepard". This was one of other beautiful painting in her home. I loved her. Mom, and dad loved her so much. Will meet with her in heaven one day! ❤

Titi Estrella was always so sweet and kind! She will be so greatly missed.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
