It´s been 10 years since you went to take your final journey Dad. We still hurt from the sadness that you are no longer here with us. The holidays have never been the same without you. Still we have to continue to go about our lives but we have the wisdom you left us with to make decisions to do the best we can. Continue to watch over all of us.. and now including Tyson like you did for all those years. We miss you so much and love and honor you today and forever.

8 years and the pain and sadness of losing you is still there. If there was someone who did not deserve to endure all the health issues it was you. You accepted what you were given to deal with because of your Faith in God and the love of your family. Dad you were so special... a talented man who was always there for us all. Continue to watch over us until we are all together again. Love you Always!! James

I pray that Mary Ann and La Familia Vasquez will be comforted with many friends & relatives during this difficult time of their loss. Praise & Glory for Jesse as he meets our Lord and Savior and is comforted by His love and mercy as Christ wil wipe away all of our tears. Jesse will truly be missed by many of us as he has always been a true friend to many. Let us all remember the fun times that made us laugh with all the very funny caricature sketches, his muisc and love of life. Truly a remarkable Child of God.

There will forever be a emptiness in my life that will never be replaced. I am grateful for so many memories and great times spent with you dad. You loved me unconditionally, and I know through the years sometimes I could be a handful, but I could not have asked for a more wonderful dad. You constantly told me how proud you were of me, and expressed it best with your love and support. I am so grateful for the Dad I have!! Love you always, and forever!! James
