We will miss you Grandpa Balleza. We were lucky to have had many years of memories w/you. We would not be here if it were not for you and Grandma Maria. I Pray you have made your way to rest in peace and that you have once again been able to be with Uncle Tom, Grandma Maria, and Jesse in the presence of our Heavenly Father. For this is not goodbye, but until we meet again. I love you.
