Not sure what to say?

Hello Geno. It's the end of the Christmas holiday season, I had been in contact with a few of the fellows from our Panama Days and your name came up so I just wanted to say "Hello" to my old friend, and Happy New Year. I hope your daughter sees this. She had expressed the desire to contact me. She can do so on 202-550-5780. I would love to hear from her.

Hey Geno My Friend. I'm so sorry I found you too late. I often think of our days on the boxing team together in Panama, CZ and how as my teachers, you and Torress used to whip up on me like I'd stole something when I as a novice, had just joined the team. But it was good training and I still thank you for it because it was good training for me.Our last tournament proved that. I'm sorry I missed you buddy, we had lots of good times in the gym. Rest well my friend, and my God continue to bless...

Hi Dauddy,

I know you are going to help me get through this next week and protect my oldest on her new journey. Thank you for giving me the daily reminders of lessons for life that I try to pass on to as many as possible. I love you and I know you will protect Italia and remind her how strong she is and how much you are proud of her? I miss you but I know you are always with us. You are the BEST!!!

Love you Baby Girl.

Hi Grandpa,

I found it comforting this year to know that you are in an awesome place that I cannot wait to see.:) I'm still upset at times but then you always reassure me. I have to say you are the best! I hope you let GOD know that I am hoping there are “gold restaurants” :) in that realm? I hope so...I know there isn't a need that isn't met. I want to say thank you for being a wonderful male figure in my life and I reflect on lesson learned constantly. I am one heck of a lady and...

Your #1 butterball with loving husband, Matthew.

Hi Genio, It's very hard to write this note to you, without crying....I miss you so much :-( I've been very busy in making business decision and I know you has been next to me. I know you has been helping me from above, everything that has to do with the business, permits, problems etc., has been resolved, by you and God. I remember the times when you have a conversation about how "Proud Father" you were about your children, How thankful you was to God for giving you Wonderful...

Hi Dauddy,

It has been a year since your passing and I know that you are looking down on us happy to see that we are doing well. I know you would want us to keep moving forward and being positive with the things that we still have yet to do in life and live it positive. Most importantly, I know you would want us to look at each Oct 21 as a day to think of you and reflecting on the years you enjoyed each and everyday. We will always have a part of you within us.

Hi Pops, I know you're looking down on all of us and smiling. This year has passed with lots of smiles, and challenges since your passing. I can hear you almost everyday in our daily lives. You have truly passed on some great qualities to your entire family. Thanks for loving us so very much. Thanks for looking over Mom, which I've seen it many times this year. I love you and miss you very much. Your #1 Son ;-) Ginito!

Well Dauddy, it has been a year of living with you in spirit. You have inspired me many times this past year. I really miss you and everyone thinks about you daily. You made me strong but so often I feel weakest when I think about how much I miss you. I will continue to do my best to make you proud and continue your legacy of love and family. Thank you for being with me this past year and protecting me. Thank you for taking care of Mommy this past year as well, you know what I mean. I Love...
