Comp'a Anthony, 
We are all going to remember you always. You were like a brother to me, only 16 yrs old when you joined our family. Always, happy and funny. Never a dull moment, when you were around. You were a great loving husband to my sis and to your children, as you were to my kids also. We were fortunate to have lived down the street from each other. Our kids grew up together, birthdays and holidays.. always together. We spent every weekend together having fun, one way or another.. including barbecues at your house or ours. Great times at Perris or the beach down the street...and also one of our favorites Pismo beach.
Whenever there was an event, Parties or weddings we all went together, with lots of dancing, which you loved to do. Many nights dancing in our living room to the big console record player. I remember a night, You and Raul Twisitng away! having a twist contest in the living room. Another one of your passion's was eating everything from taco's, enchilada's,Tamales.. with a cold beer..you name it. Our family will never be complete without you. But our love and memories will never end. You will be in our hearts forever. P.S. I could always count on you for donuts. Love Comadr'e "your sister" Susie

Papa Bear
The memories I have with you are memories that can never be forgotten or replaced. You have taught me so many things in life and helped me grow in ways I could never imagine. The knowledge you taught me from detailing a car to working on cars and so much more are unexplainable. Thank you PAPA for being a great provider for my nana and loving her so much. I will never forget the Times we would have working on cars together or just listen to oldies in the garage all day. I especially loved going on our camping trips together you always knew how to make us laugh and have a great time. I love you so much PAPA and miss you dearly. I will not say goodbye but I will say see you later. I know you are no longer in pain and I know your smiling down on us. I know God had a planned for you and you fulfilled his plan here with us. God has called you home PAPA. Thank you PAPA for all the great Times. I LOVE YOU PAPA BEAR! 
LOVE YOUR GRANDSON

"Porch in the Sky"
As a kid I remember staying at your house, all those late night's watching Z-TV, It was the only time I would get to see all the lame 1970's comedy movies, I still watch today. And also how you and Aunt Dorothy would take us to see all the Disney movies at the Drive In. All the countless years you allowed me to have band party's and practice in the shed. Not to mention all the times you rescued me whenever or wherever I had a car mishap. No matter what it was I could always call you and were there no questions asked maybe a laugh but that was it."The Porch", well that's a whole other story in itself, as I told Mike S on Sunday.. "He better get a house with a porch", and Mike replied... you know he will and he'll be waiting for us! 
Your nephew,
Joey

Dear Papa Bear, 
       I have so many memories with you. I remember whenever I would come to your house an big smile would appear on both of our faces, and you would always welcome me in then compliment whatever I was wearing. I also remember that you would call me over to you favorite spot on the couch and you would tell me to sit next to you or you would ask me to go and get something from Nana Bear. I also remember that you would try to call Alejandra over and she would come over and play with the two of us. Now that I look back at pictures of the both of us I notice that you are always looking at me as if you are checking if I was happy. You are very special to me and I would like to share the last words that you spoke to me on March 16, 2017 the day before your passing away those words were "Goodbye, I love you very much" and then I remember you giving me a very big hug and smile. Now those words that you spoke to me are the only words that I can think of. I love you so very much Papa Bear  and I hope that you enjoying haven so far. I miss you but you are still in my heart forever. Now I would like to say. . . "Goodbye, and I love you very much". 
                    Love,
                             Your grand-daughter
                             Emma Naranjo

When God saw you tired and a cure was not to be
He put his arms around you & whispered come to me, he didn't like what you went through and he gave you rest, his garden must be beautiful he only takes the best and when we saw you sleeping so peaceful and free from pain, We wouldn't wish you back to suffer that again, today we say goodbye and as you take your final rest, that garden must be beautiful because you are one of the best. 

Tony, 
You will forever be missed and although sometimes we don't understand why God decides to take his best people I know that today you will be in heaven free from any pain rejoicing with joy because you were a great person with such a big heart. I wasn't lucky enough to be around you for long but I can say that now I understand why your family loved you so much is like you left a piece of you in each of their heart's. I wouldn't like to say goodbye but instead I'll see you later because that's just life nothing last forever, we will cherish all the memories you left behind  and remember you as that happy,strong,loving,caring and funny man you were all the time. See you in heaven Tony or as your grandkids will call you papa Bear

Hey Papa,
Just wanted to let you know that you are missed and that we love you. You are a great mustache model and even a better person. I may never understand your interest in flashlights, but I will always think of you as a special light in our family. Thank you papa bear for all the times and laughs we have shared.
Go Green Bay.

Your grandson,
Evan

Anthony, since I met Rosanna when we were young and I would come over to your house to visit, you always welcomed me with a big smile on your face and had something funny to say to make me smile. You made me feel like a part of your wonderful family and I am so blessed to have had you and your family in my life all these years. The many times I have spent with your family mean the world to me. You always have a special place in my heart. May you rest in peace now with all of the other Angels. 
Lots of love, Irene

The lord said your work is done here
So,its time to end the game
You have left a mark on me,that will
never be the same
I will always miss our handshakes or
when we raised to cheer
Or all the lakers championships we
Watched throughout the years
I thought of you today
but that is nothing new
I thought of you yesterday
and days before that too
I think of you in silence
I also speak your name
All I have is memories
and your picture in a frame
We always shared a special bond 
That the love I have for you will carry on
There will always be a void in my heart
for this time in life we have to part
It was a pleasure to have you in my life
It was an honor to call you SUEGRO
In time my heart will mend
because you will always be my FRIEND

Dad,
You will be missed by all of us. Thank you for being a hard worker and provider for your family. Thank you for loving my mom. I have been blessed to have you for 13 more years since you were diagnosed with cancer. I'm so grateful that my kids had a chance to really get to know you and spend countless hours with you and Mom. Evan, Mia, and Emma loved their Papa Bear so much. You will be with us for as long as we breathe on this earth. 
I love you Dad,
Your Son
