You must have been someone really special...You carry the same name as my father-Bruno L. Gonzalez, born October 6, 1929 in Benavides, TX and died on October 14, 1986 in Mission, TX. God Bless you and your family in your time of sorrow. May you and my dad walk together in those paved streets of gold with our heavenly father.

To my Tia Cheeta, my Primo Chuyito, my Primas BeBe and Laura- I am so very sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you all. When I heard my Primo Bruno was gone I could not belive it. I will always remember Bruno for his kindness, his smile and his love for his family. I will miss him very much and am saddened that I was not able to see him one more time.
I know that he is looking down, on you and all who loved him, with that big smile of his. Please know that he is not alone for he has his Tios and best of all he is with Grandpa "apa" now.

Your nephew and cousin- Gerardo Benitez

A la familia de Gonzalez,

Ya conocido que la muerte es injusto, sino Dios hecho una promesa a nosotros a eliminar la muerte para siempre. Simplemente significa que la muerte no existir, nadie experimentar la muerte de nuevo - 1 Corintios 15:26.

December 10, 2008

I can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk
By your side

I can only imagine
What my eyes will see
When your face
Is before me
I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When that day comes
And I find myself
Standing in the Son

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine


I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship you

Thinking of you, when you come before Him, give him your heart!
May the Holy Mother guide you always.

Bruno,
We're going to miss you so much i remember when we use to sing this song together and i'm going to miss your smile but when i see your son smile he reminds me of you.... May you rest in peace now you'll aways have a place in my heart...

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.


Through many dangers, toils and snares...
we have already come.
T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.


The Lord has promised good to me...
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be...
as long as life endures.


When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.


"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Dear Bruno.
I can't belive that you are gone, your sweet smile, your sweet tender love that you had for everyone. you never forgot a face no matter how long we did'nt see eachother. You would came up and give one of your sweet huggs and say hey cuz long time. We are going to miss you so much primo. THIS WAS'NT FAIR WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU!!
BUT GOD NEEDED ANOTHER ANGEL. maybe to keep your tio's in line up there. go baby they are waiting for you. WE WILL MISS YOU , U ARE IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER ..

To my Godson and nephew, I love you and will miss you. Gone now is all the hurt and sadness that life sometimes brings. God put you on this earth for a short time, but long enough for us to learn from you. You not only had a big smile but a big heart and I will always remember that.
Your mother's heart is aching now, but I told her you had to go, to see your mother in heaven, and so you don't get lost, she will take you by the hand and lead you all the way and put you in front of your father in heaven, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

To Mary, Chuyito, Jessica and Laura,

My heart goes out to you for your lost. I have been praying for you from the minute i found out what happened. Bruno was a good man and i know his with god now, in a better place. No more worries or heart ache. No more problems or things to fight about. His in a better place now. You'll see him again on the other side, he'll be waiting for you with open arms. Bruno was a very sweet, loving person, with a big heart.He was called home because our lord wanted him back. His job here was done and he can help take better care of you from the other side. Mary you are a great mother to your kids and loved them all very much. My prayers go out for you so that you stay strong and god will help soften your pain. We shared alot of years me and your family and my love is there for you. Just remember the sun will shine again and it will be Bruno saying stop crying i'm home,
i love you and i'm okey. Chuyito,Jessica and Laura, I'm sorry for your lost and my heart goes out to you guys. Things will get better. Your brother was a great person and and loved everyone. Your family is very strong and I prayer you to heal and for your pain to go away.

BRUNO,
I WILL FOREVER REMEMBER YOUR BEAUTIFUL SMILE AND YOUR LITTLE "PRINCE" HAIRCUT WHEN YOU WERE SMALL! I REMEMBER ALL THE QUESTIONS YOU USE TO ASK ME ABOUT THE MOON AND THE SUN, AND I WOULD SAY, "BRUNO, I HAVE NO IDEA," AND THEN YOU WOULD ANSWER YOUR OWN QUESTIONS. YOU WERE SO SMART! I LOVE YOU PRIMO, REST IN PEACE, AND TELL MY DAD (YOUR TIO NAYO I SEND MY LOVE!) YOU WILL BE MISSED.

December 5, 2008

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
