Mr. Ortega was a sweet man and I enjoyed the times that we talked. I remember him being proud to be an American and talking about our country. I remember him always praising the Lord and singing hyms. As many have already said he put us all to shame in sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. I hope all of us take his example and apply it to our lives. There is joy in His passing as he is now with his Maker. I know that he is greatly missed and you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My Grandpa was a very greatful person. He understood that he was not the person he was supposed to be and later on in his life realized that God had blessed him greatly. From that point on he spent the remainder of his life telling everyone he could about the Love of Jesus and how it had changed him for the better, this made him that much more compassionate to those who were in need of the Amazing Grace that only God can give. From then on there was no turning back for him. His example is an inspiration to those of us who are less than perfect, but keep striving to do better. I love you Grandpa, and will never forget what you taught me. I Love You Soo Much and will see you very soon. I can't wait.

Dear grandpa,
Now you are really living life as God intended, your eternal hope, which is a real hope, is now a realized hope. We who remain in this world will now try to make you proud, we will try to live up to the teachings you gave to us. We miss you very much, but we feel your presence all around us; in the garden, when we see your books, when we see your chickens, we laugh at all the silly things you laughed at. My wife Rebecca and my mother-in-law wish to thank all who attended the viewing, the funeral services, and the refreshment time at the house, your grace towards us will not soon be forgotten.

I'm so Handsome!

Felix Ortega was my father, he was not a rich man, at least not in worldly ways. Of the things he was able to give me he taught me the importance of honesty and hard work. He always said what he thought, good or bad and always did what he thought was best regardless of the consequences. He loved his entire family with all his heart and soul and gave of himself anything and everthing he had. We were separated very early in my life and for the next 56 years spent our time together catching up on the past. I Love you and I'll miss you Dad,
Ronnie

Dad loved the LORD HIS GOD with all his being because he was grateful for the mercy GOD showed him throughout his life. His early life was not exemplary but in his later years he tried as best he could to serve the Lord who had bestowed upon him so much mercy and grace. Hasta pronto, papa.
