La Biblia muestra que la muerte es un enemigo, pero Jehova Dios es mucho másoderoso que la muerte, El es nuestro amoroso Rescatador, promete acabar con ella, La Biblia dice: "Como el último enemigo, la muerte ha de ser reducida a
nada " ( 1Corintios 15:26 ) Jehová promete que quiénes han muerto vivirán de nuevo ( Isaías 26: 19 ) El hará que vuelvan a la vida por medio de su Hijo Jesucristo, en eso consiste la esperanza de la resurrección.

To the lovely Zaragoza family, I am so sorry for your loss. I remember how your father worked so hard for all of you! He was a kind spiritual man who loved you all. He was so blessed with a wonderful family and could be so proud. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you grieve the loss of your father and husband.

I remember Baldomero dearly as one of my family's dearest friends. He was one of my father's closest, personal friends both in their native Portezuelo and later when they lived in California. I have such wonderful memories of visits to Watsonville as a child with my parents to see Baldo and his family.
I will miss you greatly Baldo and I am grateful to you and your entire family for your friendship over the years.
Tere, Baldito, Julia, Maria, Teresa - I am so sorry for your loss. Always count on me if you need anything. I love you all very much. My prayers are with you. God Bless you.
