Not sure what to say?

Suegro,
You were the best father-in-law anyone could wish for. The bond and trust we had between us was amazing. I remember the first time I met you (in your home). You were so friendly and I felt accepted into your family from that day on. Through the years, our bond grew stronger. Thank you for the beautiful memories we had together, and for encouraging me to finish college. You will always have a special place in my heart. May the Lord recognize you for all the good you did. You...

Ay,"Mr.G", it still seems unbelieveable! God must have really needed you muy pronto,but I know you are celebrating with Mom,Dad,Licha,Mage,and Larry. Although I miss you lots, I have to be happy for you. You are enjoying your eternal reward. Life will never be the same without you. I'll miss those daily phone calls,Sunday chats after mass,and Sunday lunch at Moe's. You filled your role as "Big Brother" quite well. Always being loving and caring for all of us in your own unique way. Thanks a...

Grandpa,

The eleven years I spent with you were the greatest. I know it seems like you hardly knew me but you knew just how I liked my food. I loved eating menudo with you on Sundays, I liked knowing that you made bean burritos and cheese quesadillas just for me. You always made me feel special with all of the little things that you did. Our phone calls were short but sweet and you always told me that you loved me. I looked forward to our visits during the holidays and in the...

Grandpa,
I will never forget you. You would do anything for your grandchildren. Thank you for taking me to the movies, my practice, and my games. I am going to miss you very much at school because you knew when I didn't want to go to Daycare and you would pick me up, especially on Fridays. I enjoyed the time we spent together and you taking care of me. I will miss the food you cooked for me, especially the grilled cheese. I thank you for letting me see you in my dreams. Until we...

Grandpa,

Its been hard this past month without you being here with us but you have left us all with wonderful memories. I will always remember your famous chile con queso and menudo. You were always so happy when you were in the kitchen cooking. I'll never forget your beautiful smile and your famous humming sound. But most of all I will never forget how you were there for me and all your other grandchildren as you attended our first holy communions, sports games, graduations, etc....

Grandpa,

Although I only had you in my life for nine years, I had some amazing memories with you. Some of the greatest memories were spent in Cozumel, South Padre, sitting in the floor section at the Spurs game, my first Holy Communion and just hanging out together in San Antonio or El Paso. You always had a smile on your face and I enjoyed just being with you. I miss you so much and wish that I would have had more time with you but I know that you will be my guardian angel for as...

Grandpa,

Its hard to believe a month has passed since you left us. Sometimes it feels like you are just at the house and whatever it is we're doing you will join us later, as you always had. I was there when we said our goodbyes but I still don't believe you are really gone, maybe you may not be with us physically, but spiritually your close to each of our hearts. Everytime we talk about you or our Florida trip it brings a smile to my face. I know you are taking care of us and...

My prayers are with the family.

Dear Monica,
Although I never had the pleasure of meeting your father, I know he raised a caring and loving daughter. I am sure he was smiling in heaven as he heard your conversation with me the other day. Hearing your expressions of love and honor for your father and the wonderful memories you recalled as we talked on the phone, he had to be a wonderful person and an amazing father. Hold your memories close to you and let time and your faith help you through your grief.
