Amor de mi vida, it's hard to believe it has been 17 years without you! My heart still aches... However, god has restored my soul, and I am doing better these days. I just turned the big 60, and couldn't help but think where our lives would be if you were still here. Your presence is missed in so many lives, you were such an amazing husband, father & friend! Hasta que dios quiere te mire otra vez en el cielo... Tu esposa y reina de tu corazon!

Robbie-
It is never been the same without you. An old friend reached out today, the little one is almost 21, she looks like her mama thank God. Mama is still a firecracker, she says little one is too. I don't know what to say or do.

Hi! Shamu,
Miss you like crazy. I miss your big bear hugs and I would smack you because I couldn’t breathe. The other night we we’re having dinner and the kids were talking about Robbie bites and I could not stop laughing I never wanted to let you have a bite because there would be nothing left after a Robbie Bite. Think of you everyday. Give hugs to my momma and poppa for me.

Love of my life... not a day goes by that I don't miss you! How I wish I could feel your big strong arms around me. When you would come home from work, and while I was washing dishes; you would wrap your arms around my waist and give me a gentle kiss on the check! To this day it gives me chills...
I cherish so many moments we had together, and I wouldn't change it for the world! Te adoro con todo mi Corazon!
I see signs all the time that you are with me. Just yesterday, I looked up saw something, and I knew it was YOU!
Thank you my love for the loving me so profoundly... Te amo mi Rey, tu Cori por vida!

Cousin, we miss you and know you are with each and everyone of us. At times, I see someone who looks like you and I have to do a double take.

Love of my life...trying to get along without, doing my very best to make you proud! Life is very challenging without you, Sunday's are still the most difficult days for me, and now especially around football season. I attended our favorite rival game "Raiders vs Niners", and thought about you the entire game, remembering all the games we attended and how you made it so much FUN! As I was getting things together for the tailgate, I remembered how much effort you put into our tailgating experiences...and I thought back to the game when we got rained on...rain or shine you BBQ'd, nothing was gonna stop you! Although my tailgating experience was bitter sweet, I did my best to have a good time...I know you would be proud of my BBQing skills now. I am so happy I took the time to watch you BBQ...I'm almost as good as you now...I LOVE YOU ROBERT CEJA...TILL MY EYES CLOSE FOREVER, YOUR WIFE, Nancy Ceja

Love of my life...life for me has changed so drastically, trying to get a long without you is STILL so very difficult...I've had my share of set backs, just as I think I am making progress, life deals me another blow! I try to think of how you would handle things, but I am NOT you, and even though I feel so much like giving up...I strive forward. YOU were so prefect, perfect in every way for me no one can ever fill your shoes...my grief is so overwhelming...that my insides hurt from missing you...its not true, time does not heal...please give my sister my love, I miss her soo, i wish I could hear her voice...Oh Rob, when will the tears ever stop...bring me some peace my love, lord knows I need it.

Words can never express how deeply I miss you, every day, every single day, every second of my life, I miss you deeply, some days are more difficult then others, today and the past few weeks have been difficult. Several weeks ago I went to a funeral and the priest said some words that made me so so happy, he said "When you think of your loved one, know that your loved one is thinking of you", at that moment, I had the biggest smile and knew that you always think of me. I miss you sooo.... my sweet sweet baby! Te amo con todo mi corazon!
You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of lo

Rob,
My heart goes out to your family as you left them way too soon.
You had such a good heart and I remember vividly that when I started at a new school..Del Mar way back in 1986, you were the first one that befriended me....still remember you hangin out in parking lot in the front when my dad used to drop me off.
Although we fell out of touch over the years as our lives went in different directions, from time to time different things would remind me of you...
May God bless you and hopefully some day I will see you again.
Your friend, Jeff

Hello love of my life, my husband, its been some time since I last wrote an enrty, this used to be my place to share how I was feeling, however now, I talk to you in my room. So much has changed since you've been gone, but I feel like time stands still for me because each morning when I wake up...I am still without you.
I was just telling my girlfriend last night how wonderful you were and how no matter what you had been through in your life, you always kept a positive attitude, no matter what life dealt us with you always reasurred me that everything would be OK...I try to share you with everyone because you taught me how to be a better person and not hold onto anything negative because it only brought ill feelings.
Even if I never love again, I was blessed to have been loved by you, because you loved me so profoundly. I am glad that God loaned you to me for the 8 wonderful years that we shared together...you will always be the love of my life.
I miss you doesn't begin to expalin how I long for you each day...thank you god for bringing you in my dreams this weekend, even if its just in my dreams where I see you, I am happy for that!
Te seguire amando hasta que muere, mi unico amor eterno...I will love you until my eyes close forever. Tu esposa, tu cori, Nancy Ceja

Mi Amor Eterno, My sweet beautiful Baby!
Time does'nt change the way I feel or take away the pain, I wake up thinking of you with much love everyday, and it lingers through out my day, how very blessed am I to have all the wonderful memories filled with love and laughter that you have left me. Of course my life is not complete with out your physical being, however my beautiful son, I want to thank you for the strength and courage that you give me on a daily basis. I have done alot of work to help me thru my grief and pain. I get a lot of compliments, I tell everyone that it is one of the many gifts you have left me. I am training for a relay event with a girl from work as a birthday gift to you,(since it is in June), she named our team "Robbie's Angels". I love you with everything that I am, every beat of my heart, every breath that I take, from the tips of my hair to the tips of my toes. How blessed am I my love. Listening to some of our favorite Mariachi Rolas, this is what is playing for you right now "El Rey", siempre eres Mi Rey!

My dear sweet baby!
I can't even say how much I miss you, your beautiful strong brown body and huge heart full of love. Although time has passed,I am still learning how to live with the huge loss and void in my life, I really am selfish in wanting you here with us. You have definately left me with many gifts through memories and knowing how you would handle things.The biggest gift of course are the babies! So beautiful amor.
As you must know this is a very difficult time of year, all I can think of is how you were always concerned about the gifts! Looking back from where we are now, seems so silly. You have left me with so much. I love you with every thing that I am.

Hi Bonehead,
Its been awhile since I wrote. I still think and talk about you alot. I miss our daily talks and hearing about your day at work. It always reminded me about my Dad since you both did the same type of work. I know you are in a better place but I still wish there was a chance for you to still be here with all of us. The kids still bring you up and think back to when we would go to my parents house. They always had a great time with you when we would go.
The holidays are here and it brings back alot of memories. You will always have a special place in my heart. Love you always.

Hey Bonehead,
The time has gone by so fast I can"t believe another year has gone by. I know its another 3 days away but I always think about you, and all the things that you did.
There is one good thing, and that is I still hear people talking or telling stories about you. I don't think that will ever end. You were such a loving person that everyone has stories to tell. You will never be forgotten that is for sure.
I will miss you

Oh Rob,
I want to say there were a lot of silent Happy Birthday wishes sent to you as well as the celebrations I'm sure your family had for you too! But tonight I would like to say to you, Happy Fathers Day! You have 2 beautiful children who are growing into beautiful people, I know you are watching them every minute of every day. Though you are not in human form your spirit runs through them. It's so incredible how both of them express your silliness, and your seriousness too! I see you in them soo much. I really enjoy just watching their expressions, I think to myself "WOW, THAT WAS SOO ROB!" And I just smile.. I hope you know how much your missed by all!

Hello my beautiful husband, Happy, happy birthday; if you were still here, I would have started off today by giving you a big kiss and enfolding myself in your arms. Then the phone calls would have begun; from all your loved ones...making sure they wished you a very happy birthday; I would hear “happy birthday, shamoo”, bear, padrecito (from momma), daddy, and so on. Although my heart is broken because you are no longer here in person, I know that your spirit still lives on...today; I will take some time after I’ve cried my eyes out and attempt to feel your spirit. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE THAT!
I am sitting here listening to Vicente Fernandez, enjoying all of your favorite songs. I am going to sing you Las Mananitas...I hope that will be able to hear me. You always loved it when I sang to you…I can still picture the look on your face…you were so proud and always wanted me to sing to you.
I can’t believe that I am without you for another birthday…I never wanted to be without you for a minute.
I will love you until my eyes close forever!
Solamente la mano de Dios podra separarnos
nuestro amor es mas grande
que todas las cosas del mundo
yo se bien que nacimos los dos
para siempre adorarnos
nuestro amor es lo mismo que el mar
cristalino y profundo
Solamente la mano de Dios podra castigarnos
las demas opiniones mi cielo
me salen sobrando
Yo sere para ti nada mas
te lo digo llorando
cuando tu me trajiste tu amor
ya te estaba esperando
Nadie sabe ni puede decir
las cosas de amores
porque todos se entregan borrachos
de amor en el mundo
es por eso que quiero gritar
matar ilusiones que mi amor
es lo mismo que el mar
cristalino y profundo
Tu no puedes dejarme de amar
ni yo de adorarte
porque estamos unidos del alma
quien sabe hasta cuando
solamente la mano de Dios podra separarnos
cuando tu me trajiste tu amor
ya te estaba esperando

Hey Cuz,
I wanted to share with you. I was at a funeral for a dear friend of mine. I walked into a weird situation by showing when the person that walked me into the lives of these other people is now at odds with them. But I went prepared for anything. It was a good call. I was able to pay my respects and everything was good.
Before I went to the reception I stopped at your grave to visit. But you know that. When I walked into the reception, one of the first things I given was condolences for you! My friend was this man's mother. And he gave me condolences for YOU! WOW, I was so blown away! Then he proceeded to introduce me to some of his cousins I hadn't met and they all went to school with you! So crazy how you reached for a hand and touched the heart in a way that can never be forgotten. I had been friends of this family for over 10 years. I am not even sure how they knew we were related?
Forever beautiful your spirit that will follow me through my life, and continue to provide me strength. I have called on you and you came to my aid. I am always thinking of you! Love you forever. Until we meet again!

It was nice to hear how you even left memories that far back and they we so sad to hear you were gone!! You just never cease to amaze me in the way you made your way thru life and the people who have the greatest stories about you!! You were always a great laugh. missing you as always!!Oh your kids, WOW!!! I'm so lucky to be a part of their lives!

HEY YOU,
IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I WROTE. I JUST SEEM TO FIND MYSELF TALKING TO YOU MORE THEN I WRITE. NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T THINK ABOUT YOU. I MISS YOUR TIGHT HUGS AND YOUR BIG SMILE THAT YOU ALWAYS HAD. I MISS OUR DAILY TALKS AND LETTING ME KNOW HOW YOUR DAY WAS OR WHAT YOUR PLANS WERE FOR THE WEEK END. I LOVED TO HERE ALL THE THINGS YOU ALWAYS HAD TO TALK ABOUT.
I STILL HEAR THINGS HERE AND THERE BUT I WISH I COULD HEAR THEM FROM YOU JUST ONE MORE TIME. I JUST THINK BACK ALOT AND I COULD HEAR YOUR DORKEY LITTLE LAUGHS. YOU WERE SO CRAZY. I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE HOW THE KIDS ARE WITH OUT YOU. THE THREE OF YOU HAD SUCH A BOND. I REMEMBER WHEN THEY WERE SO SMALL SENI WAS STILL IN DIAPERS AND WE WOULD GO TAKE THEM SHOPING AND WE GOT HER THE LITTLE WHITE SANDLES. SHE STARTED WALKING ALL OVER THE HOUSE WITH THEM AND WOULDN'T EVEN TAKE THEM OFF. SHE FELL A SLEEP WITH THEM ON. TO SEE HOW SHE HAS GROWN SO FAST IS CRAZY. I KNOW YOU ARE THERE WATCHING ALL OF US, AND HOW WE WISH YOU WERE HERE. I COULD STILL HEAR MYSELF TELLING YOU TO BECAREFULL AT WORK. I ALWAYS HAD A BAD FEELING ABOUT SOMETHING BAD AT YOUR WORK. I STILL REMEMBER THE TIME YOU CAME HOME AND YOU HAD FALLEN AND THE REBAR HAD GONE RIGHT THROUGH YOUR PANT LEG AND LUCKY MISSED YOUR LEG.
WELL ENOUGH ABOUT ALL THAT I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I MISS YOU SO MUCH.

LOVE OF MY LIFE...if someone were to tell me that I would be without you for the rest of my life, I would tell them that I would rather it be me. I can't believe that I am without you for another new year. Every morning that I awake, I wish that you were lying beside me saying "good morning Cori", "do you want your cup of coffee?" If I knew that I was going to be living my life without you, I would have bottled you up, so that I could have a piece of you daily. I do my best to get along with my life, although nothing can take away the pain, the void, the missing part of me....who is YOU. You were my everything, and everything I did was for you. I try to fill my time doing things, and trying to move forward, but it feels as if though I take ten steps forward, just to take ten steps back. I MISS EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU, ALL OF MY FAMILIA DOES. We talk about you daily. I know that nothing will calm the pain that I, the kids, your momma, and familia are going through; the only thing I pray for now is for God to sustain us through another day. I WILL NEVER STOP LOVING YOU AND NO ONE WILL EVER BE ABLE TO FILL YOUR SHOES. Te adoro mi amor, tu querida esposa, Nancy Ceja

Today is Senie's 13th birthday, how beautiful is she.
My days continue to be filled with pain and grief, Stevie said it well in the circle on Christmas, 'Don't know if it will ever get better, we must learn how to live with it". No words are ever comforting, I see you in everything that is Beautiful and Loving, Thank you so much Mijo for all the Love you gave us all, I like to think that I share it with all that pass my way.
My love for you son gets deeper every day.

Dear Mijo,

Missing You
November 11, 2008
Thanks for the visit last week it was so nice. I also understand how much you hurt because you can't be here with the kids and the rest of the family. It is just as hard for everyone else as you know. I had tears after I seen how hard it is for you not to be here and seen your tears made it worse.
The kids have alot of support from the family, and it is not the same as if it was you. Everyone is trying to do their best with what they got.
It's funny because the boys came home yesterday and said they seen some guy and he looked just like you, but when they got closer he took off in his truck. Even they see you in other people. The sad part is that nobody will every match up to you. We all miss you so much.

Sweetheart, I miss you never begins to explain my life without you. You were my everything...everyday that goes by just reminds me of another day without YOU. I never wanted to go an hour without you. I wish I could lay my head on your beautiful shoulders again. Te extrano mi amor, tu esposa, Nancy Ceja
Missing You
October 15, 2008
Hey Bonehead,
It's been awhile since I wrote to you. I think of you everyday. I wanted to thank you for the visit the other day. It made my day so nice and refreshing. I miss our daily talks, and you telling me how your day went.
I still can't believe it has been a year since you have been gone. I miss your voice and your tight hugs. I ran into your Aunt Helen two days ago at Safeway. It was so nice to see her it brought back so many Memories. I am glad to hear the kids are doing so good. JJ asked about how I thought the kids were doing. He said "he would of gone crazy if it was him in their shoes".
Everywhere I look I see so many memories of you. When I see a man with a orange tee shirt, on a Bike, a blue work truck or even the same hair cut. I see you in so many ways that brings a smile to my face, that is when I think of all the things you would say and do.
I remember when we went to my parent house with all the kids and took the tent because the property is like a big park. All the kids loved it, Pheonix and Senni loved the creek and speaking about that we were looking at the pictures over the week end.
I miss you so much and I will always cherish the memories we have together.

Sweetheart, I wanted so much to come here on the 27th, however my body was filled was so much grief, I could hardly move. Thank you sissy for sharing our memories of that beautiful day. Rob, you always said "it was the best day of your life"; of course with the exception of having your beautiful babies. We had such a beautiful wedding, it was everything we both imagined; a big celebration with all of nearest friends, and familia. Happy anniversary, my beautiful adorable, sweet husband! I love you oh so much! I hope that you spent this day with the angels and hearing me sing "la mano de dios". I knew that only he had the power to separate us, I just thought that it would be when we were both old and grey. Te amo con toda mi alma, Nancy Ceja.

Gentle, calm and beautiful brother your smile is vivid when I close my eyes, the softness coming from your eyes that shines your love and sweetness from within. A stable presence when your near. Music brings you into the room, the memories are sweet but the moments of missing you are unbearable. What a kind and precious person you are. I try to cope and be strong for others but inside I am so very very sad without you here. Time they say heals all but I know I will never ever stop missing you and most of all wishing you were still here... Our family is blessed to have had such a special child, boy and the great man you became...
Today was one of the happiest days of your life, your wedding day! You were so cute, you were really into planning everything from the very beginning and making it perfect for you and your bride to be. Both of you were beaming with joy and created a day that would be memorable and special forever! Your excitement to marry and have what you always dreamed was possible, "real love" you were so happy! Your love was being honored in the highest way, with all your best friends and family and a most precious ceremony, where we would face the fields of San Juan Bautista and our Mexican brothers & sisters picking the fields as a reminder of where we all came from-where it all started, you are such a proud Mexican! That was funny when we cut the preacher man short and had Papa come up to finish your wedding. We always looked out for eachother. Nancy was so proud to marry you that day, she sang to you in her wedding dress with all the mariachi's in front of everyone to show her deepest love, it was truly beautiful. Then the party started and you got up on stage and led us in the best tequila toast we ever had, I was so proud of you and your ability to talk about your wife and love so tenderly, all the women wished they were Nancy that day! Nancy was the lucky one, you were both so lucky to have had eachother in a way that so many people may never have their entire life! "Real love" that will never be duplicated, you two were Frida & Diego and always will be remembered as two people who truly loved and cherished eachother in a way most can only wish for... The dancing at your wedding rocked the house you and Nancy danced to the Isley's, "For the love of you", it was so sweet and passionate. Davey was so funny that night, he was dirty dancing and changed his outfit into a tango outfit and half-top and spun every girl in the room, it was hysterical, grandma called him the stripper! That night you and your bride would begin your new life together... Mom had to drive us back to Hollister in her "mother of the bride dress" in Parris's big 6 wheeler truck, we were all too tequilad out, that was so silly she had all her kids in the car but her newly married boy who was now a proud married man! To help us through this day I will think of the love you and Nancy shared "real, deep, passionate, sweet, crazy, silly, sassy, gentle, strong, beautiful, precious and forever. "Precious love" that like I said, "most people will only dream of..." Thinking of you Nancy, I love you and am always here for you! Sissy.

Robbie its me auntie, I can't believe its been a whole year. You called me the night before reminding me to watch the Elvis special. The next day, which keeps going thru my head, when I got the call from Aunt Tiny was so unbelievable. Worst of it I had to tell the Grandparents, just broke my heart. Today was a very hard day for all of us. Good thing was we celebrated the whole day honoring you. Going to your sacred place then going to your fav place San Juan Bautista and eating in your fav resteraunt, then going to a play I know you would of just loved.
I miss you so much, I miss your presents, you being around all the functions making everyone have the greatest time ever.
I will never stop thinking about you, never stop talking about you,and never stop loving you. You will always be in my heart.
Give Uncle Nick a great big bear hug and kiss for me.
Luv you forever, till we meet in Heaven. Auntie Swuggs

Hey Rob.....I just want to say what you already know and thats how much I miss you we all miss you. You cross my mind almost every single day. I still remember vividly this day a year ago when I found out what happened to you. From Paul jr. telling me to the shock of disbelief that I sometimes still feel. When I think of you I remember all the love and joy in your heart and soul and I'm forever remembering you as a child when we would take care of you , Davy and sissy...I thank God we are cousins and fortunate to know you for almost all your life. You grew from this little kid who used to sleep with his eyes open to this great giant tower of strength that you shared with everyone. I love you Cuzzy......Liz

Hola cousin, it was an extremely hard morning for me. I couldn't help my mind replaying this very day a year ago when I got the call from debrina while I was at work. We all miss you and want our Robbie back. I know god will let us all see you at his own time again. I was happy to visit your sacred spot this afternoon with our familia. Corrine said one of your famous jokes today, "did y hear the joke about the cookie? Nevermind it was a crummy joke anyway!". You were too funny with those. Cousin, thank you so much for your love, laughs, and endless bearhugs.
Miss you & love you lots!
Love,
Squeeeeks!!

Love of my life, today marks a year, almost to the minute of this entry. I still feel the pain in the pit of my stomach, receiving the phone call from Jack and racing to the hospital was the most horrific pain I have ever felt. I miss you doesn't begin to express how I really feel. I know that you are not in pain and in a better place, and I can't wait to be with you again one day. Te amo rey de mi vida, tu esposa, Nancy Ceja. I love you my ANGEL.

Mi Amor Eterno,
A year ago today my life forever changed. It is still so painful mi amor.
Today we will celebrate your "Angel Day" with ceremony and much love. We will start off at your sacred space to decorate with the fall colors, we will ride over to Mission San Juan and meet at" The Virgen de Guadalupe", to light candles and leave her your favorite flowers "The Sunflower", we will then have dinner at one of your favorite spots "Dona Esther's", then head over to "Teatro Campesino", to see the play, you so loved it there Papi, then we will go to Sissy's for desert. Your love exists so strongly and as Sissy says your heart continues to beat loudly here with all of us.
Thank you amorsito for taking care of me, I continue to talk to you daily and continue to ask alot from you, I do feel that your work as an Angel is being done, I just want to say that as a team we have always worked well together, and I know that the work has to be done by all involved.
The tapestry that you have painted in my life is full of love, laughter, joy, tears, pain,color, gentle kind beauty and more love, and I know at some point there will be peace.
I miss you with every breath I take and with every beat of my heart! Forever and always and ever.
Tu eres El Rey de mi corazon!

Hi Rob,
It's me Debbie, I am here at my mom's this morning using her computer and thought I would say hello on this horrible but spiritual morning. I didn't think I would want to do this today but I find myself here anyway. I hope you have found peace where you are and I hope today isn't too difficult for Nancy, I can't imagine it not being. But My heart and soul goes out to her and your children, your mom, well, I cant even imagine her grief today either, your sister the strength that had held so many together, and your brother Christian, and Stevie, my thoughts are with you all!!!
With all my heart,
Debbie

It has been a year since I have heard your bark. Oh how I wish you would embarrass me one more time with your bark.
I remember a year ago, it plays back in my mind over and over. I am still in shock of everything.
YardDoggie, let us pray together this morning for Nancy, the kids all your family and friends. May God help them through this day, show them that he has a plan and they are all part of his plan. And it is God's plan and time, not ours. So easy to say, yet, so hard to live. And, YardDoggie, please help all of us down here make it through each day without you, but espectially today. A piece of my heart will always belong to you
WE ALL MISS YOU!!!

Daddy,
My birthday came and went, without you here, but it was as if though you asked everyone, and I mean everyone to call me. I received about 30 calls on my birthday, all of the familia called and wished me a happy birthday, and it was really nice. It made me feel comforted. Even though you weren’t with me in body, your spirit was with me all day. Livia, Rosie and Stephanie came from out of town to be with me; it was really nice to be with my best girls…thank you sweetheart.
I realize that the worst is yet to come; all I can do is PRAY.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, YOU WIFE WHO ADORES YOU!

My beautiful sweet, loving, handsome husband...nothing can take this intolerable pain away. I was just asking myself "what, what is this purpose behind this!" I STILL CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT. There were so many lives you touched, any so many of our friends and family who admired and looked to you for advice and direction. I know that one of those people is your compa Eddie. What now, the only thing we can do is imagine what or how you would handle things. I am trying my hardest to be the woman you would want me to be, however, my pain sometimes makes me do illogical things. When I look at our pictures, pictures of you and me and the kids, what I do know is that we had a good life together and we always lived life to the fullest. You never cared about how much money we would have left in our bank account, the only thing that mattered to you was entertaining our friends, & most importantly our family. I was sitting in our patio the other night, and I was imagining you there, sitting there enjoying your bud-light after a hard day at work; talking about the day’s events and what our plans were for the weekend. How I miss those days, I am SO GRATEFUL that we shared so many good memories together. How I wish I could lie in your beautiful arms again, I always told you how I loved the way your big shoulders would enfold me. You always me made me feel so special!
Today, as I was driving I heard one of the many songs we shared together “after the party”; I envisioned you dancing with me, I loved the way you moved your feet, you looked so darn cute. I just don’t understand any of this and why you are not here with us. I wish I could wake up and have you back, I never imagined my life without you, not for a minute, and now it’s almost been a year…it seems like an eternity for me, you know how I never liked being without you at all. Dallas still misses you, I was recounting the story to mijo Larry the other night about why we bought him and how amazing it is now to have him, and it was ONLY because of YOU. And, I am so thankful for that, because he is my companion.
I knew this month was going to be difficult, my birthday, the year, and our anniversary. I was remembering about how we talked about renewing our wedding vows this year, because we wanted papa to do it for us. Oh my god, the thought of it makes every part of me hurt.
Te quiero con todo mi Corazon y pienso en ti cada minuto de cada dia. Te extrano en todo lo que hago, porque tu eres todo para mi. Te segire amando hasta que mi tiempo llega. Tu esposa, Nancy Ceja

My Dear Sweet Sweet Baby!
This is a very difficult time for all of us that you have left behind.
I feel so broken and so very empty without you amorsito! The pain and grief is undiscribable, I feel like I weigh 5000 lbs, it's so heavy. Every morning when I drive to work I look at the building that is now complete and hear your very last words to me, "MaMa I love you so soo much" I continue to tell you that I love you too mijo, how I would give anything and everything to have you back. Absolutely nothing takes the pain away!
Thru our pain we honor you daily with our love and wonderful wonderful memories that you have gifted us with.
Sissy got us box seats for the RAIDDERRS on Monday nite, she had t-shirts made with your picture on it saying "Robbie Ceja Familia", they were beautiful, they also honored your name on the scoreboard.
Mi Rey, te amo con todo mi corazon y mas.
Always in my heart

Hi Robert,
Well the 20th is a year since you have passed. The year went by so fast it seems like only yesterday when I got the news. I still can't believe you are really gone. I still look at the clock and expect your call between 250 and 3PM. The bad part is when the phone does ring, it surprises me and I know it could never be you calling. I wish I could get that call from you again, along with a great big hug. I miss your tight hugs and your little giggle. You always had something funny to say or joke about things to make everyone feel happy when they were around you. I miss everything about you. I found some pictures of you and the kids, when we had the b-day party for Phoenix and Seneca was still in a diaper. They were so small. You looked as handsome as ever.
Robert i miss you very much say hello to my Dad and tell him I love and miss him.

Love of my life, what an extremely difficult week/weekend this was. I miss you doesn't begin to express how lonely I am without YOU. It all began at the beginning of this week...knowing that we would be preparing for our annual CAMPING TRIP, we always put so much effort into it; knowing that this would be the kids’ last hoorah before starting school, and knowing that the family would be getting together. Thursday, was especially excruciating because all I could do was think about how you and the kids would be setting up camp, Phoenix enjoyed being right by your side and making sure everything was ready for everyone when they arrived. All I can say is that life truly is NOT fair, my pain is not only for me but also for the kids, and I know this week had to be difficult for them as well. I spent a little bit of time at mom’s house for papa’s B-day; everyone misses you so much! On Sunday I left to Modesto; Jack & Liv’s house, I thought it might help being around them since we are always together on Labor Day weekend. Jack and I were reminiscing about all the wonderful camping trips we had together, no one can fill you shoes when it comes to camping. All we could do is laugh and cry.
The drive home from Modesto was so painful, I got a little lost; you always drove and… I just couldn’t concentrate. I kept thinking about how we would be so tired and would have to deal with unloading all the camping gear; but it was always worth it.
I am not looking forward to this month, I know that you wouldn’t want me to be suffering the way that I am, but the pain is so deep, I just don’t know how to deal with it. Sissy prayed for me while I was at moms and it felt so nice, because I have a hard time doing it on my own. Honey, I wish I could hear your voice again…saying I love you Cori, I know I will never ever be loved the way you loved me!!! Please visit me and give Joseph a kiss for me. I love you with all that I am, your wife whom adores you, Nancy Ceja

Oh Rob,
What a wonderful family you have! I have been blessed to be able to spend a little time with each of them, even your wife Nancy. She has been so graceful when it has come to me, and I deeply thank her for it, as she being your wife, doesn't have to accept me at all! But, her love for you just shows me that she is accepting of all that care for you in your past and up to the day you passed. Well, I'm sure there are a few exceptions!!! Ha Ha, I'm just glad I wasn't one of the exceptions! As I read her entries I still feel the pain she expresses and I hope you are keeping her safe as I feel she needs you to keep in touch! With love and Respect,

Hello love of my life...I had so many dreams of you this weekend, thank you for always loving me. Someone said to me the otherday" it's good to se that you are going on with you life"; what choice do I have, there is no other, it's either live or die, and I know you would want me to continue living. You were so full of life, you loved our lvies togther, you loved what we had built together, and I will always carry that torch.
Larry went to his first Raider game, he had a blast,, and I reminded him of all the things we would do at the Raider games, he was so impressed, like always!! We BBQ'd in your honor, it wasn't as great as yours, but Larry said you would be proud, I hope you were. All I can say is Raider games will not be the same without you...but we did carry on your traditional chant...RIADDDDDDDDEEEERRRRRZZZZZZZ! I love you so much, your wife, Nancy

Dear YardDoggie
Remember two years ago when you told me I needed to do something, some activity, at the transplant games, Well, I did. You would have been proud of me. I did the shot-put and the discus. I had to stay in my chair because my leg is not healed yet. I didn't get a medal in either evert, but I did however get honored with two gold medals. The first one because of all I do and that I showed people that being in a chair doesn't mean you can't get up and try and the other for my dedication and courage. I was shocked by both medals. It was very emotional.
I could hear you cheering me on all the way and I know you were up there laughing with me while I was laughing and crying as I was honored. Oh how I wish I could share my experiences with you this year!!
Give Debbie and Patty BIG YardDoggie hugs for me and thank them for their wonderful gift of LIFE they gave me. Love and miss you,

Rob, love of my life...my days are growing longer, and longer, the pain is getting worse with each passing day. I still ask myself, "WHY", why would this happen to our family, the kids, and me. I am not the same without you, I will never be the same. I try my hardest everday to go on with life, but what is my life without you....miserable. I will never understand why you are no longer with us. People tell me "well at least he is in a better place". I feel like screaming when I hear those words. You are in a better place, while I am living in hell everyday. Thoughts rush through my head, thoughts of wishing I was no longer here; but I know I have no choice but to continue living. I MISS EVERYTHING about you, most of all I miss our family. Thank you GOD for at least allowing me the time that I did have Rob & the kids in my life. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Honey, please visit me, I need you so much. I adore you!!! Te extrano amor, y te sigiere amando hasta que dios me da vida. Tu cori, Nancy Ceja
