Dad, I have missed you every day since you passed. I miss talking to you and your jokes and food. I love you so much. -Sally

My gamps, my grandpa, my partner in crime. All I have of you is wonderful memories grandpa and all you ever gave me in return was unconditional love. There are countless memories I can share that we had together from riding the lawn mower around the yard with my cousins cause we wanted to play store, digging all the holes we wanted in the yard to make you mud pies you gladly pretended to eat, to the swings you made us that could carry me and my 2 crazy cousins with no worries, riding in the bed of the truck to the corner store to show off all our your grandkids proudly. You encouraged me to always play my violin and bought me my first guitar. I can also proudly say that I watched every single Terminator movie, Predator movie and Robocop movie all by the age of 6 because of you (and cause grandma didn't catch you lol). 😊 Even though we watched them countless times over and over again you'd always let me hide behind you even though we had seen it a million times before. You'd always laugh at me because I still would sneak peeks between my fingers. (I am going to miss your laugh) From our bologna grilled cheese sandwiches, to our egg and tomato sauce breakfasts, a day will not go by that I won't be thinking about you grandpa. You always brought me happiness and showed me so much love no matter how long we were apart. I know we may be apart for a little while again grandpa but I know I will see you again  when it is time for me to go home with the angels. I will forever love you granpa, I will miss you everyday and I wish just one last time I could hear you tell me "you know your grandpas favorite right and I love you so much justinie, never forget that". Say hello to BB, Midnight, Lady and kitty for me grandpa ❤ I Love you.
Love, the one who first made you a grandpa, your  first grandaughter, your favorite, justinie ❤ 

With the help of my Tio Oscar and my mom I have a great bench. I remember going to Home Depot helping my mom pick out the wood because Tio said he’d make it for me. My mom and Tio took all day to make it.  I was so excited and told my Tio Oscar over the phone thank you. I will never forget his last words to me.  “Take care Mija, love you.” I will forever treasure my bench. Tio, thank you. Thank you for all the laughs and great memories. Thank you for being so kind to my Melody. She would come home talking about how much fun she had visiting you. Rest In Peace Tio. You will be forever missed. 

We were reminiscing and listening to the oldies while you were helping me build Mandy’s bench.  I was talking away when I turned around and noticed you were staring at me with a smile. To my surprise you gave me a big hug and said “ I miss you big sister and all my little brothers and sisters. I love you all.  Thank you for coming over to visit.” I replied, “We love you too little brother. It’s sad that life takes so much of our time. It separates us, we should make time to visit and talk. I’ll be dropping by everytime I come down ,I promise.” He liked that. I took  Melody( my granddaughter) a couple of times to visit. She loved the old swing. That’s my best memory. I miss you my little brother. 

Dad, you didn’t like to be called cute but, you are so cute in this picture:

There will never be a man that loves me like you do, my sweet big-hearted Dad. I love you more than I could ever show you. You supported me in anything and everything I wanted to do. You were so much fun to have as a dad. You played jokes on us, we jumped all over you, you bought us any junk food we wanted, you told mom to leave us alone when we knew we did something wrong. You took us to hang out with you. You were such a great teacher and always went into teach mode when I watched as you worked on cars; I knew how to diagnose my own car when I left to college.  I loved that you taught me how to use a saw and were always there for me to fix up my condo. I enjoyed our projects together. You were so smart, Dad. There was never a topic you could not have a conversation about and I loved that you could talk for hours, which we often did. I loved football because of you and, man, you taught me everything about football too! I remember growing up, you cracked me up when you tried to be cool by saying things like “girlfriend” putting an L up for “loser”, a W up for “whatever” and a heart up for “love you”. I’d think “who taught you that (ironic that I was the child saying that about my dad)?” Oh, you said you wanted “Smokey-eyes” too...lol. I always appreciated how supportive you were,Dad, and I hope I can do the rest of my time without your talks and your hugs; it’s going to be hard. You never let me sulk when I failed. You said “no, no, try again.”  I live by that. You were so inspiring, Dad. You worked so hard all the time with great precision and dedication. You were a great example of what hard work can get you. My heart hurts so much for you, Dad, but I know you had to leave. I long for the day I see you again. My heart will never be complete again until I join you in heaven. Please Rest In Peace, Dad, and know that the million times you told me you loved me, I heard you and it always felt so so good. Love you with all my heart, Dad. I will talk to you soon. 

I will miss you big brother.
You were always so full of life and had a big sense of humor. There was never a dull moment with you.
Not too long ago we took a drive to the valley, just you and I. I had such a great time listening to your life stories and your crazy jokes.


Rest in peace cousin Oscar 🙏🌹 you were a great son , father cousin Love Angelita Rodriguez my condolences to all your family and your brothers and sisters 

Dad, we shared so many special moments.  You were a great encourager.  You always believed I could do anything.   You loved me so unconditional.  You always inspired me to be me.   You were brave, strong and fearless.  I will miss you everyday.  I never thought I would ever have to live my life without you, I can’t even imagine.  I’ll be strong like you taught me.  I will continue to make you proud.  I will forever carry you in my heart and never forget you.  I love you so much.  

I'm going to miss my primo Oscar. I remember when they used to work in Plymouth, IN My husband used to work with them. Óscar and my husband Pancho became very good friends. We are both going to miss him very much. We Love you PRIMO OSCAR. MAY YOU REST IN PEACE.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

My brother Oscar will be miss dearly.  He was a hard worker.  He was full of life. 
He was a funny man. He joked all the time never took me serious. When mom was on the phone laughing I knew she  was talking to him.  I’m going to miss that.  
He loved his family. His mom and dad , his brothers and sisters and his friends.  I’m going to miss my brother. 😔
