Aide De Arroyo

Aide was so loved and cared for by her children and grandchildren. Aide was a wonderful woman that is cherished and will be missed by so many. Our “Mama” as she was called by her grandchildren, “Ama,” as she was called by her husband and kids, was an amazing wife, mom, and daughter. Among the many things she was great at was cooking. Aide cooked tamales for over 30 years and everyone who had a taste of them loved and couldn’t get enough of them. They couldn’t wait for her delicious tamales to be made. Cooking and feeding everyone was how she showed her love to everyone! Cooking was definitely her love language, and she was a wonderful cook.

Aide’s grandchildren were her heart, pride, and joy! Her children were her entire world. Anyone that knew her knew she valued her family and the precious moments they shared as she loved to capture them with pictures. She loved to show off her family and was proud of everything they did. She taught her kids to always be there for each other and to love each other through anything. Her kids lasting memory of their mom is a simple, hard-working, passionate figure of strength who’s love and support never diminished for her family and who soldiered on, even when times were tough. She enjoyed music, dancing, coffee and never turned down a good drink, or a get together with her kids. She also enjoyed being there for anyone who needed a shoulder to lean on, as she had many, many friends who turned to her in their time of need.
