Gladys, Carmen, Junior, Grandchildren and Families, I know the loss of your farther is painful. Being a member of the Morales family I saw and felt the deep love and respect you all felt for your parents. Your Mom and Dad were special people and a gift to us from God. Is was beautiful watching the depth of their love and devotion to each other and the pride and love they gave to their children, grandchildren and me and my family.
We all know that your mom and dad are in haven right now and their prayers are for us to rejoice with them in the promise of our God, in a heaven where we all will be one day reunited. Love Joseph Puziewicz

Dear Family & Friends,
I was deeply saddened upon hearing your Dad had passed away. I will always remember Mr. Morales as a "Good Man" and a distinguished gentleman. Thank you for your love and support when my Mom died in August. With sympathy - Henry Puziewicz

Tio Junio, Gladys, Carmen my dear husban Edwin and the rest of the family I am deeply sorry for the loss of Buelo! But we all know that he is right where he should be at peace with his beloved wife, parents, daughter and brother whom I'm sure welcomed him with open arms. During the time that I knew Buelo and from the stories I heard/hear from you guys, Buelo was a WONDERFUL parent, grandfather and person. He will be missed VERY much!
God feels the pain beneath your tears. He may at times seem distant but he's oh so near.
May God BLESS you all and bring you PEACE!
