Pa, you will forever hold a place in my heart and there are no words or enough pictures to express the impact you have made in my life and the life of my family. We will forever hold those memories in our hearts and minds. Even though the good Lord let us all Borrow you for 85 years it wasn't enough but I know we have to go when he calls. I will forever be your ugly and love you "three"!!! Whenever I see a penny I will remember you telling us you loved us that much. And the significance of that being priceless. I will never forget how even though we were all girls you taught us to be self reliant when it came to home improvements, and yard work. I loved to mow the lawn with the push mower. I had you take me to all my OB visits when I was pregnant with Annalysse and I tried convincing you I wasn't in labor the day she was born because you kept telling me when that day came you would not take me. However you were there in the waiting room waiting for her to be born. I know a lot of times you were misunderstood and people got their feelings hurt but I seen and heard the pain you carried.I'm gonna miss getting ready to leave the house and you sending me on your beer run, even though I was already running late for the kids or had a ton on my plate I still went for you. I was blessed to have been able to call you my father, my kids blessed to have such a loving grandpa and my first granddaughter had her great great grandpa. I know you are watching down on us now and I know the biggest worries in your life was knowing mom was ok. As I promised I will never leave her side although I know you don't need me to tell you because you seen it for your own eyes. "Look,listen and learn ". Rest in peace now Pa I love you Three

Grandpa, losing you has left a empty space in my heart.  I will try to fill it with things that would honor your memory.  Your commitment to family, your dedicated work ethic.  Those things I could only strive to achieve.  Thank you for all you instilled in me.  Every time I cook 'papas', I remember you teaching me how too, in your kitchen.  'Remember, let them cook. Don't turn them over to soon...' I still hear your voice.  I love you and will always remember.  Nessy...

Grandpa, you were always such a strong man a Jack of all trades. The memories That I will have are priceless. Fishing, boating  and camping at Lake Isabella always watching you work on cars and building something.Saving the family when we had floods you were always our Hero. I was blessed to have had you in my life to carry your traits to have your name.  I will forever love you.

There are no words to express how I feel. I have just lost the greatest man in my life, which can never be replaced but he will never be forgotten. I thank God that I was blessed to have had these two years with him. I know he knew just how much I loved him. He will live on forever in my memories, he was a great provider for his family. He worked hard, he drank hard and lived life to the fullest.. I remember when I was a little boy and he would be in the back yard working on cars, he would ask me to get him some coffee from with milk and ONE sugar. I remember going with my dad to work in the cotton fields, I would play in the trailers, while dad picked cotton. I am very blessed to have had a father such as him, this pain will live on forever in me. Part of me died when he passed on but I know the Lord will give me strength to continue on, as he would want me to do the right thing and I will continue in his honor. He was a hell of a man and I am proud to be his son. My father Victor B. Mendoza.

I used to have fun at your house, swimming. I love and miss you.

Dad, You prepared me for this day the day you knew I was strong enough to stand on my two feet. Your not gone forever because you'll always live in my heart. You taught me to never give up so I'll continue. Love Always Your Baby Girl

Daddy, I can't believe l will no longer see you or hear your voice. My heart is torn into a thousand pieces. I am trying to be strong like you would want me to be, but its hard. I will miss your grumpy ways, your stories, your smile . I remember you always used to say, "look, listen and learn. I will always miss you daddy, your baby girl

Sorry for your loss. May Christ Bless you and your family and heal you in your time of loss.
