We miss you Tio Peewae! The other day we were at your Sis house, and I was remembering how you would always show up and out of the blue make us laugh with your corny jokes. I also remember the last time we went camping and you got the fire started for us then you were laughing at us becuase we didn't know how to dance the way you did. I want you to know that we love you and we will have you in our hearts always. Don't worry about your SIS, we will take care of her.

Peewa,

You will be sorely missed and I am only sorry my baby girl will never get a chance to meet you. You brought so much happiness and friendship to our family. You were part of our family. Now you are in a better place where you can watch over everyone you love and no longer suffer. We will see you again one day. Save us a spot at the top.

We reunited just in time in life to be there for each other, Monick, friends again like there were not so many years between and just know that you and your family are in my heart and in my Prayers. I love you my friend.

Monique,
It has been many years since I've seen you and your family. You all were always such great people to me. I always remember the sleep overs at your home and going to weddings with you all. Your dad would always pull me out there and make me dance the cumbia with him. I know there is no bond as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve. May God bless and keep you all in his arms during this sad time.

My Sincerest and deepest Sympathy to the Patino Family. PeeWae has left behind many memories. He was a joy to be around, always had a joke and he was always there to help anyone in need. We came from the same barrio "Kenwood" he was very good friends with my cousin Raymond Perez, who has also left this earth. Now Raymond & PeeWae can rehash old times in heaven, and put together a few ball games. God Bless.
