To my dear loving uncle (Nino) Robert,

Life without you has been really hard these past few days.. You were the greatest uncle I could have ever asked for . All the laughs and loving memories I had with you and all the music we’d listen to, as if it just happened literally just yesterday. I will miss the jokes you shared with me and my brothers Marco and Maudy. Thank you for the memories nino Robert . God blessed with me an amazing uncle and now an amazing angel that you are and I know you’ll forever watch over the entire family and myself . You will be truly missed nino Robert . God called you too soon , but only he himself knows why . I love you mucho mucho Nino Robert . More than all the entire pebbles in the sand . I miss and will miss you so much. You are in paradise now .. This is not a goodbye , this is a see you later. I love you Nino Robert. 

You’re nephew,

Maxi

Padrino ,
Muchas gracias por todo su apoyo,
Y por dar me mucho ánimos para salir de adelante para mi familia . Se lo agradezco de todo corazón. 

Que descanse en paz Padrino 
De Sue cuñado Marco .

To my 1 and only Nino Robert ,
God I miss you so much 😔 , thank you so much for being there for me,  When time was needed for the advise of how to be a good  brother as the eldest because my brothers were looking up to me ,  I”ll never forget your soft tone, but well discipline. To always respect my parents and siblings .. we are “Familia”
I will never forget when Jackie will invite me for sleepovers at your house and following day you would take me back home and make me drive back freaking out my mom when we got to the house. I was only 5 /6 years old  me sitting on your lap on the red Hyundai 🥹 god what beautiful memories .
I also remember  you picking up my brothers and I to go to the park with Jackie and Dobby and us playing  either baseball or football, you making us laugh with your face gestures/remarks. You were and will continue to be the my best Nino Robert  that I could ever have. Thank you for always showing your support throughout high school , helping me tie up my first tie for prom teaching me techniques and putting on my cuff links on my dress shirts.  “You always want to look Sharp Mijo”.
Let’s not forget my college years as I was preparing for fire academy of you telling me the semi military terminology and be ready for the yelling “ show them who your are Mijo dales todo su Madre”, you also  telling me  how to shine my station boots so my drill instructor not to be on my butt. 
As years  went on me becoming a father and  you being at my baby shower . Then you meeting my son MJ as you would call him your Osito.. He will always remember you as our Nino Robert as he now had the privilege to call you that too  and you hearing him. 
THANK YOU Nino for everything you did for me I will always have you in my heart .
God bless you always , and may you rest  in peace say hi to my grandpa and grandma / Tio pelón and all our loved ones.
 See you later Nino , I LOVE MUCHO MUCHO!!! 
Your God Son CHON.. 🕊️🙏🏻✝️

Dear Nino 
Thank you , thank u for all the memories I will cherish about u. Thank you for the fun times we had , the jokes , the laughs, the singing and your love . I do have my moments at times where I catch myself stuck and lose focus on whatever I’m doing.  I can’t accept god took u away from us . This feeling doesn’t feel right … but one thing I will cherish and carry to heart is when i played your music 
(Pink Floyd Album) in r backyard on Jillson and u started to jam out and singing crazy 🎸🎶, telling me all the good memories of your childhood times, It always puts a big smile on my face just by listening to your stories. I will always play it nice and loud for u and hope u can hear me up in heaven jamming out on your behalf. I know we hardly saw each other but once we did , It was always a strong loving bond u had with all of us . You’re always going to be my #1 loving uncle that I ever had . Thank u for the good loving memories and may u rest in peace with my loving angels up in heaven. Plz give them a big hug for us 

May u keep looking down on us and keep protecting me and my family with your blessings.

 I love u Nino 🙏🏼🕊️😔

To my loving brother Robert, I still can’t bring myself to believe you are no longer here amongst us. I miss you so much Brother my heart hurts.
  Our  heavenly father called you too soon, but he knew you were feeling pain and suffering, and wanted to take it away, so he called you home to rest. We didn’t see or talk to each other daily but when we did those times were nice our conversations your advice I will always cherish , the memories of my child and adolescent years will always be in my heart. I find comfort in knowing that you are now with our loving mom and dad and loving brother Eduardo, family, and friends your spirits watching over us . 
I will forever be grateful to you for being there for me when I needed my big brother and for being the wonderful Uncle /Nino you were to my son’s Marco Jr , Mauricio, and Maxilian and a great brother-in-law to Marco sr  , may our  heavenly father grant you  eternal rest & peace until we meet again, my loving brother, 
loving and missing you so very much your little sister Martha “Marts”.🙏🏻❤️🕊️✝️

The day we said I do💔 Always in my Heart ❤️ 1982

It was such a wonderful surprise to see you arrive with Vanessa and Jacqui to our Backyard Popup. I thank God for Blessing me with this picture and giving me the Privilege and opportunity to pray for you. Although our Lord God decided to take you home , it gives me peace knowing that you will not have to suffer anymore pain. See you in Heaven Nino. Always Loved,  Always  Remebered, Always in my Heart.

we say goodbye to a man who meant the world to me. Pops, your love, wisdom, and strength shaped who I am, and your memory will live in my heart forever. I will miss your voice, your laughter, and the way you always knew how to make things better. Though you may be gone from this earth, your spirit will guide me every day. Rest peacefully, Pops  I love you and will carry you with me always. With heavy hearts with love and respect we honor and remember the life of a man whose love, wisdom, and strength touched everyone around him. Dad was more than just a father figure ..he was a guiding light, a provider, a protector, and a source of endless love. He had a heart bigger than words could describe, always ready to lend a helping hand, offer a word of encouragement, or share his quiet wisdom. Pops carried himself with dignity, patience, and strength, teaching those around him not only how to live but how to love. To our family, he was the rock.. steady and dependable, always putting others before himself. To anyone who came across his path he was loyal and true, a man who could be counted on in times of joy and in times of struggle. His laughter could warm a room, and his presence brought comfort like no other. Though our hearts are broken, we find peace in knowing that his love will continue to live on in us. His lessons, his stories, and his spirit will guide us for the rest of our lives. Rest in peace, Pops. You will forever be missed, but never forgotten. Your memory is a blessing, and your love will remain with us always.

Rest in Peace, Tio Robert.  I will always remember you for being such a cool Tio.  You always gave the best Christmas gifts, though I'm sure my Tia Doris had something to do with that, haha.  Always warm and affectionate,  but never a pushover.  I can definitely trace my taste and love of music through you and my mom. I do apologize for being absent these last several years, but pIease know I will always admire your positivity, especially when there can be so much negative around.  I love you, and miss you Tio,

Danny Boy Loco de Rosemead

Robert,
I'm missing  you so much, my dear brother. It hurts knowing you won’t be here with us anymore. What brings me comfort is remembering these past few months that Melissa, Cali, and I were blessed to share with you. We laughed , cried, and held on to every memory of you and I growing up together. Those moments will stay in my heart forever.
I’ll miss your calls more than I can say, especially on my birthday. You always had a way of making me smile by reminding me it was your “carnalita’s birthday” and singing Happy Birthday in your own silly, playful way. That was you, Robert, always finding a way to bring joy and laughter, even in the simplest things.
I’ll truly miss seeing you, your walk, your presence, and the way you always carried yourself, always looking so sharp. But most of all, I’ll miss the love you showed in your own special way.
Robert, you are not truly separated from us, you live in our hearts, and we know you are now united with us in spirit more than ever. You are free, at peace, and surrounded by love.
Rest in peace, my brother. Though we grieve and our hearts ache, our faith reminds us that this is not goodbye forever. One day, we will meet again, and until then, I will carry you with me in everything I do.
Love you always, and always will.
Your sis,
Nene

You'll always live in my heart 💔! Thank you for being a Big Brother to me. I love you Uncle Robert , the fearless, the Classiest,  the most interesting and of course the SHARPEST looking man in the world!! ❤️U

Tio Robert
I was blessed to be able to spend time with you before you went home to be with the Lord.
As I've been going down memory lane, it has brought back so many fond memories,  with good and sad tears.
Tio/Nino
Remembering all the camping trips in the summer time, going to the mountains in the winter, and the snowball  fights kids vs adults sorry you were to old had to be on the adults side, you guys always lost hahaha🤣😂 so many stories. 
You will be deeply missed. 😔
Tio/Nino
Do me a favor give my Dad, Mom, Eddie,  Freddie, Anthony, Grandma and Grandpa a big and kiss from.  me, I Miss and Love You All. 
                               Love You Always
                                           Lori

We will miss you Robert thank you for all the love you have shown us throughout the years may you rest in heavenly peace you’ll be forever in hearts . Love you brother in law .

Tio Robert....I’m beyond grateful that I got to spend some extra time with you before your passing.  Those moments and conversations mean the world to me. 
I'll never forget when I wrote about you for my English and journalism classes. You told me how much it meant to you that I chose you. But honestly… it meant more to me. It meant more because it wasn’t just me writing an assignment,  it was me getting to see you, to really know  you, and it felt as though you were letting me in. 
That was a gift I'll carry forever.
My favorite memory was more recent... it was our deep conversation about music, me telling you i was born in the wrong era, and you telling me about  you seeing Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne at different amphitheaters.  I loved listening to your stories and really thinking to myself, “ He's the coolest uncle.” 
And it wasn’t just me who saw you that way , my daughter Cali ,thought so too. Especially when you said you knew who Billie Eilish was, and mentioned you were security for her concert. I remember laughing and thinking, '"of course you were! "... That was just you.
Tio Robert, you were  more than just my uncle. You were  someone who made people feel special just by being around you. You were one of those people who could make a conversation feel deep, or funny, or meaningful, all at the same time. ♡♡

If you were lucky enough to be in his life, then you know what I mean. You walked away from him feeling like you had just shared something real.
He was an amazing person, and I don’t say that lightly. Anyone who knew him was truly blessed. I know I’ll carry his memory with me forever. 
He will always be remembered, and he will always, always be missed.

I can’t believe you are gone grandpa my heart hurts knowing you are no longer by our side but I am at peace knowing you are no longer suffering 💔 I will forever miss you but I am grateful I have all our memories together and I will hold you in my heart thank you for being the best grandpa to all of us 🤍🤍 we all now have the best angel watching over us I love you grandpa and one day we will be reunited 👼🏻🪽
I love you mucho mucho forever and ever!

Beloved Robert, The Lord took you up yonder and healed you from those health issues you discussed with me. To live is Christ and to die is to gain . Philippians 1: 21  Thank you for the good times and for the sacred times in prayer together. 💕 Til we meet again.   😥  Marcie Casas

To Brother Roberts family (Montoya's)
                          Rob was a life long friend whom in my older years became at heart as a brother to me. Himself & my brother Julian casas were best friends till the day of Robert's glorification.
We last seen each other in 2022, evenso the absent of time didn't take away the love & respect I held in my heart towards Rob! 
I only say if only I'd of gave him 1 last handshake or experienced his care or concern he had towards myself for a better life. I no without a doubt that Rob is with our Lord! 
I will miss seeing him every now & then, evenso 
Till we meet again Rob,rest in His peace!
             With great love to Rob & his family!
                           "    GOD bless you "

Dad....

My heart hurts that you are no longer with us.  I will cherish all the memories we had.   At first we thought we were helping you when you moved in with us.  But it was the total opposite.  You helped us.  You blessed us with your love and support with our children.  I am forever grateful.  I could never repay you for the selfless love you poured out on my little family.  You were always present.  You were always willing to help.  I am thankful to God that he did not let you suffer.  He knew it was time and although I miss our talks - I am forever grateful to know that I will see you in Heaven and we will have our talks there.  Love you dad.

My beloved brother in law Robert
