To the man that taught me everything I know about being a Husband, Father, Uncle, Godfather, Handy man, Brother, Friend, and overall hard-working Man by being a true example. I will dearly miss you. You are gone too soon but I know you are no longer suffering. I know you are loved by sooo many as you touched the hearts of everyone you encountered, and you knew no stranger.I am thankful for the time we did have together and that your grandchildren got to meet and experience the love from their Abuelito. I sit here and wonder what do I do now? Then I think “what my old man would do?” Those of you that knew him, knew he would fire up the grill (it doesn’t matter that it is raining), invite all his family and friends, crack a cold one, play loud music (all kinds of music), and ensure everyone has a good time. So that is what I will do when the opportunity comes, and things settle down enough for all of us to gather and celebrate his life. Thank you everyone for all your support, prayers.
