  4. Grandpa, I miss you already. There is a ton of memories of you, that make me smile. One memory that I will never forget. When you use to say. "The bus the bus the B-U-C". That memory of you will always make me laugh. It reminds me of how goofy you were :). Always in a good mood:). I love you grandpa!

  5. Dad today you were to share your gift of the guitar and singing at the care center, however, instead I am sure the greatest audience ever enjoyed your voice in heaven. I know you were received with a great hug and smile from Irene. Thanks for sharing your stories, jokes, smiles, scriptures, strenghth and love. A friend said to me "The memories you shared will matter more than those you missed." I will still miss your "God Bless You & I Love You Meja" after our visits. I LOVE YOU DAD.

  6. Diane and all the Sanchez familia, our heartfelt condolences in the loss of your dad. May all the precious memories fill your hearts with happiness. Juan and I met your dad at your sister Irene's services, he was very pleasant, and funny and made us feel welcome, like we had known him for a long time. May he rest in peace and play his guitara. All our love, Roberta and Juan

  7. Mis sinceras condolencias a la familia Sanchez. Queria compartir algunas palabras de consuelo que nos ofrece Dios mediante la biblia ya que perder a un ser querido en la muerte es muy, muy doloroso. La biblia hasta llama a la muerte nuestro "ultimo enemigo" (1 Corintios 15:26). Pero el Todopoderoso Jehova y su hijo Jesucristo, prometen un esperanza conmovedora en Revelation 21:4, "Y limpiara toda lagrima de sus ojos y la muerte no sera mas, ni existira ya mas lamento, ni clamor ni dolor...". Otros textos que nos dan consuelo son Isaias 25:8 y 1 Pedro 5:7. Que la paz de Dios este con toda su familia en estos momentos dificiles (Filipenses 4:6,7).
