I love you Dad. My heart will never be the same without you. I miss you dearly, I need to hear you laugh again, I need to feel your hug again, I need to see your smile. Lord knows I dont understand, but I know he doesnt make mistakes.
My heart hurts every minute of the day. Whoever said that it gets better as time passes? Not with me dad, everyday that passes, more and more tears come down. I dont know how Im suppose to go on living life without you.
I still walk into the den and look for you at your spot on the couch.I go into your closet and hug your hanging shirts, in hopes of smelling you. When my phone rings, I look to see if it'll say "Dad". I listen to an old voicemail you left me, just to hear your voice. I miss getting you your chocolate sundae from 31. I miss not hearing the lawn mower early sunday morning.
Journey asks for his "Gumpa" and it breaks my heart. You were his hero, as im finding out you were to many.
So pre-season started, the cowboys are looking pretty good. I know the boys are gonna take it all the way this year in honor of their biggest fan.

I miss you dad, you were my hero, the best man I knew. I promise to make you proud of me. Please save me the closest seat to you up there.

I always be your "princess of the land of the small" or "moms"

I love you

Estimada familia del sr. Rogelio Carrasco,mi nombre es Jessy y quiero dar mis condolencias a la familia.Como ustedes saben la Biblia que es inspirada por Dios nos consuela en momentos mas dificiles por ejemplo el texto de Juan 5:28,29 dice: Va haber resurreccion tanto de justos como de injustos,la hora viene en que todos los que estemos en la tumbas conmemorativas oiran su voz y saldran.
Como vemos tenemos esta gran esperanza de volver a ver a nuestros seres queridos que se han dormido en la muerte.Garcias a Jehovah Dios por esta hermosa esperanza que nos da la resurreccion.
Solo queria compartir con ustedes este mensaje Biblico.
Sinceramente,
Jessy

I got to know Roger when we were kids and he would go help his Dad at the restaurant. We were about the same age so we typically found time to do the kind sof things young teen age guys did. Roger was a good guy and I was always happy to get a chance to drop in and get a burger and catch up a bit. He carried on his father's legacy and hopefully that will continue. The Carrasco's are a community blessing and we are richer for having them be part of the El Paso fabric.
