Today and every day, I miss my uncle and aunt. With the knowledge of their happiness in being together, we carry on...having had, and continuing to receive, the blessing of their unconditional love.

First joined together by man on this earth, now we must rejoice that Kathleen and Richard are joined once again by God. They will both be greatly missed.

Mr. Gallardo was a very sweet guy. I've been knowing him for about 15 yr.s because his wife Kathleen hired me at Hotel De L'eau Vive. Now he is in heaven with Kathleen and at peace, with no more suffering.

My father was a great man who was taken from us way too early. He just couldn't live without the love of his life, my mother. They are together again and are happy. My son and I will miss them very much. They will live forever in our hearts. We will always have the fondest of memories of the times we have shared together.
