I still cannot accept that fact that my father is no longer with us. My father was a fighter all his life and to not have him here with us is just not real yet. Not sure it will ever be. If you have ever tried to keep a positive attitude about life, you shoud have met my father. Nothing bothered him really. I never saw him mad or upset at anyone. I never heard him say a bad word in anger at anyone. He was always smiling! My father thought me a lot about gardening and how to grow plants and work the land. I think that's why I love playing in the dirt! He also thought me how to parallel park when I was 16! Many people have problems parking parallel, but not me. Every time I parallel park I think of him. Most important of all, my father gave his family, and his posterity, the gift of being citizens of this great country of ours that I love so much. What a priceless gift to give to those you love.
Since I was the first born, and I was born in June I tell my siblings I was my dad's first Father's Day gift! 
My dad with his first grandchild, my daughter, Angel.
This my sister Soco's wedding. Nice bunch, Dad!
Here we are at my daughter's wedding in 2006. My dad sure made a beautiful family. 
My dad meets his great-grandson, West, for the first and last time. They'll both miss out a great deal.
My dad, as my boyfriend Chris put it, was the strongest 90lb man I ever met.
Te recordamos siempre.We remember you always.
