Dad,

It is Christmas Day 2006 and this is the first Christmas without you here to share it with. I miss you so much Dad, I wish you were here but I know you are with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ where you are completely healed now, no more suffering, no more pain.
You are the best Dad anyone could ever have, I loved you so much and still love you so much. It hurts not being able to see and talk with you. When I come home and walk in the house, I still expect to see you sitting in your favorite rocker and to see your face light up and smile.
Dad, I will never stop hurting until I see you again in Heaven.
Your grandson Julian Isaac takes aftr you, he is such a good son, he is kind, considerate, loving and always wanting to help others. He really takes after you with his athletic ablility; Everything he plays, basketball, football, baseball he excels just like you did when you were young. I know you were so proud of Julian Isaac and all of my children; you loved them all so much.
I miss you Pops, (Julian Isaac's nickname is also "Pops") There isn't a week that goes by that I am not thinking of you.
Merry Christmas Pops, I love you and miss you so much.

Your Son.

To all of Julian's family,



We were fortunate and blessed to become neighbor's of Julian and Clara about 11 years ago.

We always enjoyed seeing Allyson and Drew when they were at their Grandparents. Julian was always such a strong and active man and we saw him often walking all over the neighborhood. He always had a nice word to say. And we can tell you all that our "Tubby" will miss his friend (and the cookies and tortillas)!!

Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers at this time.



Janet, Christy, and Janelle Franklin

Clara, Ronnie, Barbie, Carol and Karen,



I just wanted you all to know that I'm thinking and praying for all of you and for your husband and dad, Julian. He was a great man who deeply cared for everyone, especially all of us as kids. I'll never forget all the basketball games we shared growing up--those are precious, cherished memories that molded us and helped us as we moved down the path of becoming young men. I just wanted to say thanks to your dad for giving so much of himself to all of us. Oakland, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Topeka and I owe him a lot. All of our communities and neighborhoods need more men like your dad. Please remember all the great times today as you lay your dad to rest.



All our love,



Johnny, Teresa, Michael & Vicky Sepulveda

I will never forget your dad's kindness and the joy on his face when we both shared about our grandchildren. He will be missed. He passed on to his children and grandchildren wonderful attributes.
