I am glad I got to know you in our youth pal. I have many memories of good times & gatherings. We will all see one another again when the Lord comes back in His truimphant second Advent. Until then, rest in peace brother, & I will pray for the comfort & joy to return to your family.

We are so sorry for your loss.Pat used to hang out with our son Darrell. He stopped by a few months ago to see us.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you family.

Words cannot offer the condolence needed at a time like this.  Please know that our hearts and prayers are with you and your family.

Rita and I grieve with you.  We hate to see you endure such a horrible loss.  There are no words that console for devastating losses, such as family and health.  Everything I type seems hollow to me.  Still, friendship emboldens us to try to console, to try to look to the future.  In one sense, we grieve because we have lost what is dear to us and we cannot help but grieve.  We hold family and health so dear, our human nature leads us to this, and it is natural, with some grief appropriate, even healthy.  In another sense, perhaps we seek refuge with the spirit, with God, we try to look beyond our human nature, and we try to realize that if matters run contrary to what seems cherished, like family and health, there is an Inscrutable Wisdom that cherishes us and will also lead us to times, if not worlds, of blissful joy.  Tragedy may obscure our vision as we see through a mirror darkly, it may cloud our foresight to the point we find the idea of a blissful world foreign and untimely, even cynically, but time will aid and comfort us as God inevitably wills.  We dearly hope and fervently pray that time of grief is short, and that the aid and the comfort of Divine Succor reach you soonest.

Please accept our condolences during you time of loss.

Rita and Ed Ordaz

I am so sorry to hear of this devastating loss.  I hope that you all can find some comfort and peace in your faith and in eachother.  You are in my thoughts and prayers.  
Sincerely, 
Tara C.

I miss you Daddy and hope your alright now. Brandy bit me on the face but I'm better now. I'll take care of Mommy for you, I promise! Triangled ears and wagging tails with reindeer prances forever! Bosco

Rest in Peace my love, my Big Daddy, my one and only reason for living! You had come so far back on the right track, far enough the Lord decided it was time for you to come home to Him. Now you've met my father, my brother, my niece, and my late husband you'll know what good angels I've been blessed with, now that your one too! Ya'll watch over me and Bosco Buddy, he's really missing you but we're both going to be OK! I'll see you soon, on the other side where all things are possible and Happiness and Joy reign on high with our Heavenly Father and His son, Jesus Christ God Bless and God Speed. Amen, Love forever, Debbie.
