Daddy, My heart is missing you, It's missing your face, your smile, and your laugh. I can't explain how much it hurts not to have you. I'm so used to you, now who am I supposed turn to. I feel so empty, me and you had a bond that I will never share with any other person, I'm really struggling to understand why god took you from me, And the only reason I can come up with is that he wanted his angel back. I just can't help to feel that I was not prepared for all of this. And now it's even harder knowing how many things you will miss, I know I must of told you a thounsand times but here's one more I LOVE YOU, more than life itself. My life will never be the same without you! I kept my promise.... I love you too dad and I will see you tomorrow.And everyday after for the rest of my life! See you in my dreams daddy.

To the Olivas Family, Your dad was a very special man. He always had a smile on his face, and he was always willing to help anyone who was needing a helping hand. Everytime we ran into each other he always made me laugh. I will miss seeing him riding his bike or shopping in Bel Air, where he knew all the cute cashiers :) My heart goes out to all of you, your dad will be greatly missed. Good bye Joe, and God Bless you.
