From your daughter Carmen ~ Daddy, Thank You for your love of family and others. It is something I will cherish. I will go forward and lead with love and compassion for others as you did. June 11, 2023 is a day etched in my heart. I cry often…because I can’t seem to accept you are not physically with us anymore. One thing is certain…spiritually you are with us. That is a great comfort to know. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ A memory for me and my dad that I’ll always cherish was when I was around fourteen years old. One day, I just said out loud, to the airwaves, not to anyone specific, “I would love to play guitar”. Apparently, I didn’t know it, but my dad overheard me. That Christmas, my dad surprised me with a guitar. I was so happy, words couldn’t express. My dad knew how to play guitar and taught me the basics. Playing guitar was not only a great pastime for me, but playing my guitar made me happier when I was happy and it pulled me out of sadness if I was sad. My day started by playing guitar…literally…I would get up out of bed, pick up my guitar and play songs. I learned how to play guitar quickly. As a result, I sang and played guitar in high school concerts, at mass in church and then progressed to wedding ceremonies. I’ve met so many people through music. The musical path in my life was definitely one I will never forget. I was so blessed to have been able to share music with others.

I am deeply saddened by the news of your loss. I have many fond memories, all the jokes and good times shared at your home growing up especially during tax season until the wee hours. May God give him eternal rest and grant you all peace during this difficult time. Millie & Joi
