Mama Elena was the mother that was truly my mother , not by birth, but by marriage and the grace of God. We communicate all the time and I know she is in my soul as I go day by day , she knows I get it and I will make it and make her proud and not let her or our family down, we will survive and go forward with all that has been instilled in me, tu hijo, Jorge Luis ,como siempre un besito y mas , un fuerte abrazo.
My Condolences to the family Elena left behind. I would like to take a moment to say that your late mother was simply amazing she touched the hearts of many. Including my own. She lighted the love for dance in my heart. My mom put me in dance as an activity to do, and under the guidance of the amazing Elena my love grew. Even though I ended my dancer career at 18. I often reminisce of the strong, beautiful woman that taught me how to count to music by tapping a stick on the wood floor of the Miami dance studio. The woman that taught me that presence is everything even if it was just a 30 minute class. I'm so sad to hear of her passing. May she rest in peace in dancer heaven.
My deepest sympathy to her family.As a little girl I enjoyed being taught by her in Puerto Rico.
She was kind and very talented.
My deepest sympathy.As a little girl I enjoyed countless ballet lessons with her in Puerto Rico.
She was a great person and a great dance teacher.
Me recuerdo verla infinidad de veces por la CMQ, otra gloria de Cuba mas que se va sin poder ver a nuestra amada patria libre de la opresion comunista. Ya son muchos los que nos han dejado , habiendo partido con el dolor inmenso de no hacer realidad uno de los pensamientos de nuestro apostol Jose Marti ; No son las playas del exilio mas hermosas, hasta que se les dice adios !
En paz descanse
Una Cubana mas que nos abandona, sin llegar a ver a Cuba libre. Que Dios les a sus Jona familia mucha fuerza en Estos momentos de dolor.

Dear del Cueto family,
Please accept my deep regrets and sorrow for your loss for death only brings pain and grief and though we don't know each other please let me share the comfort and hope I received when I lost my entire family to this enemy death. I found this in what Jehovah Gods word the Bible says at John11:11 that our love ones are just asleep and at John5:28,29 Jesus tells us we'll see our love ones again and we're also told at ICor15:26 that this enemy death will be done away with. These scriptures help me get through each day and I'm hoping they'll help you in some way also for this is my purpose in sharing them with you. Please know I do share your grief.
Sincerely, Gloria
