To my beloved Exan, You will always hold a special place in my heart as one of the most loving and caring people I’ve ever had the privilege to know.

You will be deeply missed, but your warmth, kindness, and memory will forever live on in our hearts. With heartfelt love and remembrance, Susie, together with my parents, Leida and Angel May you rest in peace, and may your family find comfort, strength, and healing in the days to come.

Mi major pesame. Yo se que el descansa en los brazo de su padre y creator. Mi oraciones, y corazon estan con ustedes la familia . Le pido al padre celestial los cubra bajo su amoroso manto y los colme con su paz que sobre pasa todo entendimiento.
My condolences goes out to the family. I enjoyed the quality time we spent over his mom’s home and the great dinner’s his beautiful mom made for us. I remember him as a good man that cared for his family. No one should have to endure the pain of loosing a loved one. May Jehovah, God be with the family and friends. Therefore, I would like for you to read a pamphlet entitled, When Someone You Love Dies. It contains answers to questions like, Has someone you love died? Do you need help in dealing with your grief? I hope it helps!

I am so grateful for your guidance in Pucho’s life. He is the man that he is because you showed him a better way of living life. You showed him that family can be stronger when we stick together. Your children (Will, Pito, and Leslie) always had an extra place for Pucho and that shows us how much you cared for my hunny. I will forever love you for opening up your heart to me and allowing me to call you tío. Your love will live on with every memory we all share of you. I love you, Tío. Until we meet again.
My grandpa was an amazing man until his last days. He cared and had so much love in him. He would never make anyone feel less than and he taught me so many things. He taught me parts of a car, the difference between a whopper and a burger because I didn’t know it. He taught me old songs and Spanish singers like Willie Colon. He hand built so many things and showed me the world, I am so lucky to have been his granddaughter and have him in my journey in life. I have so many memories with him, I have to keep on smiling and keep my head up like he would want me to. I have to thank him for everything he’s done and always supporting me in life. He’s an amazing man and will always be that man, now I have so many memories to share with future generations.
My deepest condolences. May he rest in peace. He is in a better place now.
On behalf of the Holmes’ family, please accept our deepest sympathies. We wish each of you peace and comfort during this time of sorrow. We will always cherish Pop’s smile while golfing with the fellas on Fathers Day, the great conversations we had about sports, and countless fun family celebrations over the years. Keeping each of you in our thoughts and prayers. Love Floyd, Nicole, Brooke, & Blaire
I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Correa family. From the moment I met my brother-in-law, he was incredibly supportive, kind, and generous. He served as the best man for my husband, William (Junior), and we are truly grateful for that. One of my fondest memories is how compassionate he was with my three children; he truly had a big heart. He generously shared his knowledge with both his children and grandchildren. I feel fortunate to be part of the Correa family, and we vow to reunite with him in Paradise. Keep in mind that according to Acts 24:15, there will be a reserrection of the righteous and unrighteous! Love, Jenny
