Aunt Chris I remember the first day I met you you welcomed me in with both arms and loved me when I told you I had a infant at home you didn't judge me. Sometimes us moms have to take a break. Was your words. Aunt Chris rest in paradise with my Angel anaiya
Such a Sad Loss. I was shocked when I found out of your passing. It upsets me that I did not keep in touch more for whatever reason You were amazing friend to me and I dearly miss those good oldie but goodie days. Your laugh your smile the joking.Love you like a sister Chris.
Hugs until we met again on the other side.
Love to you
Darlene
I called the other night to talk to you and Ben and he told me of your passing. I could not and still do not believe it. You are a sister to me and took such good care of Mother and Daddy when they were alive. Now, you are sitting there visiting with Mom like you used to do. Oh how I wish I had stayed in touch with you more and will make sure I stay in touch with the family. Needless to say, you are and always will be so very dear to my heart. I love you my sister and always will. You were an awesome person and I am so proud to have known you. Love and miss you always. Mary Bowman

22years ago, Magno family was so kind to a poor stranger asian boy like me. me and John enjoyed papasan's nice dish and joke everyday and i liked to hear mamasan told story of her and papa ben. i thought what a wonderful family they are. still now i recall days and people of pinellas so often. i wonder if Ben Jr found Oriental Express Record. i wonder if a baby ,named Laz ,'s ashma was better. and I wonder if mama still enjoy Bingo game. but just right now, searching Magno family with google and knew mama's death. shocked . i am sorry for no writing, mama Christine. please forgive me. and i care papasan. i want him cheer up tho it may be difficult now. i respect him, moved from phillipin , worked in coast guard and made nice family in states.
i love him and his family forever. R.I.P mama Christine junku nishimura Ben jr, if you find this, please give me mail. [email protected]

AS U CAN SEE, ME AND BIG DAVID ARE NO LONGER TOGETHER AND HE IS SOMEWHAT OUT OF CONTROL. WE ALL ARE AT TIMES AND ONE THING I CAN SAY IS THANKS FOR HELPING ME INSTEAD OF JUDGING ME!! U ALWAYS WANTED WHAT WAS BEST FOR ME AND NOW LOOK.... DID U SEND BILLY BACK INTO MY LIFE TO FIND HOW MUCH IN LOVE U AND DADDY ARE? HE REALLY MAKES ME HAPPY AND ITS BEEN 13 YEARS WE WAITED FOR ONE ANOTHER CUZ I DEDICATED MY LOVE TO BIG DAVID KNOWING I WANTED A HUSBAND LIKE DADDY AND FAMILIES SHOULD ALWAYS STICK TOGETHER THRU THICK AND THIN, U SAID I WOULD NEVER LEAVE HIM AND U WERE RIGHT- HOWEVER HE LEFT US! I DO NOT HATE HIM AND I KNOW U WILL LOOK OVER THE BOTH OF US AND I HOPE U CONTINUE DOING THIS THAT I AM IN DESPERATE NEED OF ANSWERS...
I PREY TO U AND GOD JESUS MARY AND JOSEPH ALL THE TIME CUZ' THATS HOW U TAUGHT ME TO PREY, LOL AND IM ALWAYS DOING A CROSS AROUND MY BODY WHEN I RIDE BY A CHURCH AND ALL THESE SUPERSTITION THINGS U HAVE TOLD ME, I FIND MYSELF STEPPING ON A COMB BEFORE I PICK IT UP SO I WILL HAVE GOOD LUCK, OR NEVER LEAVE UR PURSE ON THE FLOOR OR U MITE END UP BROKE, OR WHEN THE BROOM DROPS U SAID COMPANY WAS COMING.. IM SURE NARDA AND MINA DO THE SAME THINGS AND THINK OF YOU ALL THE TIME, U WERE AND ARE THE MOST SPECIAL MOTHER ANYONE COULD EVER DREAM OF. IT'S FUNNY CUZ YOU ALWAYS SAID I WAS JUST LIKE U BUT WHEN WE MEET FRIENDS OF THE FAMILY SOMEONE WILL ALWAYS TELL NARDA, MINA, AND I DIFFERENTLY. WE ALL HAVE SOMETHING ALIKE IN US THAT BRINGS U OUT OF US. IT'S A BEAUTIFUL THING. I KNOW I GOT UR FEET AND CHUNKYNESS... LOL IM GOING TO LOSE IT HOPEFULLY IF THATS WHAT GOD WANTS OF COURSE, AND MINA AND NARDA DEFINATELY GOT YOUR GOOD LOOKS, I GOT DADDYS GOOD LOOKS. YOU KNOW... IT'S BEEN A YEAR AND BABY DAVID BRINGS YOUR NAME UP ALL THE TIME SAYING HOW HE WISHES U WERE HERE CUZ U ALWAYS GAVE HIM HUGS AND KISSES! HE WILL NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO TOUCH HIM AND SELDOMLY HE WILL GIVE HUGS.. HE LOVED U SOOOOOOOOOO..... MUCH! EVERY GRANDCHILD DID! THERE WAS SO MUCH LOVE IN U TO OFFER AND EVERYONE GOT IT FROM U! LOVE IS PRICELESS AND U SURE NEW HOW TO EMBRACE IT. BABY DAVID SPITS ALOT AND HE THOUGHT WHEN WE VISITED YOUR GRAVE THAT BY SPITTING ON IT "HE THOUGHT HE WAS KISSING YOU"!! SO HE SPITS ALL THE TIME YELLING "I JUST KISSED GRANDMA" THEN HE WILL SAY, "MOM.. SPIT! RIGHT NOW AND KISS GRANDMA!" SO I WILL OCCASIONALLY SO IF ANYONE SEE'S MY YOUNG ONE SPITTING ITS BECAUSE HE THINKS HE'S KISSING HER. HE DREAMS OF U AND HE BRINGS ME PICTURES OF YOU EVERYTIME I FEEL SAD OR LONELY! HE SO SWEET AND GENEROUS AND WILL ASK ME (ARE U THINKING OF GRANDMA?) I CAN SAY NO AND HE WILL SAY "YES U ARE!" HE'S AMAZING, AND HE WILL NEVER EVER FORGET U IN THE TIME U SPENT WITH HIM THE SIX YEARS U TWO SPENT TOGETHER! YOUR LOVE WAS VERY UNIQUE, AND I BELIEVE IT'S BECAUSE IT WAS STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART AND VERY GENUINE, (I LOVE EVERYONE 2)! BILLY AND I ARE THINKING ABOUT GETTING MARRIED AND HAVING MORE KIDS- WHAT DO U THINK?? LOL I VISIT DADDY EVERYDAY OR OTHERDAY HOWEVER HE IS ALWAYS WORKING!

I knew omething was wrong because you always kept in touch even when you did not hear from me. You have been on my mind when I finally searched for you on the internet. This is what I found!!! I am so so sad, I will always love you, wish I could had been there with Ben and your children. Ben call me 410-614-9124 on my work number. I will keep you and the family in my prayers. Gail from Baltimore, Maryland
Grndma, I miss you so and it feels like forever that you would make me bring my keyboard to your house and play the music that you loved! But the very last time I saw you, I cried so much, the powerful music I thought I could play, came to an end. Now its time I start again, I want to play our favorite singers msic, Elvis Presley. And Im only starting again because I now your still with me. Im your baby girl!
