Facebook Event and Discussion Map and DirectionsWho's bringing what!
It's a potluck... so bring whatever you like!
Below is a semi-up-to-date list of what people are bringing.
If there's no name next to an item, it's really just a suggestion and is up for grabs!
You can text Grenard @ (562) 234-1248 to "sign up" for a dish, and I'll put your name next to it.
But also, you don't have to go off this list. Bring whatever you want or even just yourself!

It's with enormous sadness
and heavy hearts,
...we announce the passing of our lovely Wife, Mommy, Sister, Daughter, and Friend
Giezelle White
Born to Zeny and Gil Madrigal...
Growing up doing the Hula in Hawaii,
and playing roller hockey in the LBC.
Mentoring the neighborhood kids,
And teaching CCD at St. Lucy's,
She did all the things.
And was well-liked by all.
For a bit of a change,
And to further excel at work,
She moved East.
Where she found Ed.
He's the Love of Her Life.
And together...
They raised the two loves of their lives...
Eddie and Eva
She lived a remarkable, fulfilling, and wonderful life!
Thank you
for being a part of Giezelle's life...
...in the many ways that you were, and we look forward to seeing you at her memorial or in the near future.
