You and Mom had so much faith in the boys with reaching their goals after graduating from high school. And that they did, they accomplished their goals!!!

Keith and I are so proud of our young men as they both pursue their dreams ~~ playing college football!

As you wanted me to do, I saved all of my cards that you and Mom sent me. I have this special card on my fireplace!! I also have the Christmas ornaments that you had given to me on my Christmas tree!

We continue with our family traditions that you taught me. I baked your favorite cut out sugar cookies. I especially loved the cornflake wreaths decorated with red hots and with green food coloring for the wreaths. I always remind your Grandsons of the stories that I shared together with you and Mom for the Christmas Holiday!

I know that you and Mom are here with me in spirit for this holiday season, as it was your favorite holiday.

I miss you not only for the this holiday, but always. You and Mom are always in my hearts and prayers. On Christmas mourn, I will honor you and Mom with a special Christmas prayer at Church.

~~~~ Poem for my Dad ~~~
HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN HEAVEN DAD!!!
"God took the strength of a mountain,
the majesty of a tree, the warmth of a summer sun, the calm of a quiet sea, the generous soul of nature,
the comforting arm of night,
the wisdom of the ages,
the power of the eagle's flight,
the joy of a morning in spring,
the faith of mustard seed,
the patience of eternity,
the depth of a family need,
then God combined these qualities,
when there was nothing more to add,

And so, he called it .... "Dad!"

Keith, Steph and Dad & Mom together!!

July 19, 2011

Dad,

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, So he put his arms around you and whispered come to me.

With tearful eyes we watched you suffer, and saw you fading away. Although we loved you dearly, We could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating, Your loving hands to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to use, He only takes the best.
~~~~~
I treasured one of your favorite poems. Its been a year and I miss our visits together. You are with my Mom and our guardian angels watching over me, Keith and your Grandsons.

Your loving daughter Stephanie

... Happy Father's Day Dad.....from your loving daughter, Sweetie Pie,

Dad, I want to thank you for the wonderful childhood memories … all the love and all the compassion you've given me that we shared together as Father and Daughter will always be in my heart and with me forever. You always have been there for me as I have for you... you guided and taught me the values of life and taught me to be strong, your encouragement has made me the women that I have become today. You were always very proud of me and of my accomplishments that I am proud to be your daughter.

It was always nice that you always reminded me of my resemblance of my Mother, you always knew how to put a smile on my face. You always made me laugh when you told your Grandsons of my childhood sayings,,, “I always asked you for a munchie”. And many more!

I will never forget the wonderful time we spent together when you and I went to San Antonio. We had a precious Father and Daughter bonding time together. I remember how you enjoyed walking every morning to get our coffee at the Mi Tierra Mexician Cafe and then shopping at the El Mercado Market Square. You especially enjoyed the hotel room and beautiful view over the Riverwalk watching the tour boats everyday. I will cherish this time that we had together of love and joy of being with you Dad.

I love you Dad!

Happy Easter Dad!!!

Memories of you Dad at Easter.... remembering the joy of spending last Easter with you and how you were so excited that we had Easter dinner with you!! I remember that you had bought so much candy for your Grandsons that you were so persistent that we take it all back home!! Though we did enjoy the nice treats on our trip back home!!.

Love is the joy of Easter filled with hope and peace!! In memory of you Dad this Easter Holiday. I forwarded your voice recording, as you would have wanted me to do, to my brothers and sisters. I could just hear you say,,,, “That's my Sweetie Pie”. Hopefully they will feel some comfort in hearing your voice as I do. I remember playing your recorded message back to you and we always laughed about it. You told me to keep the message that I stored on my cell phone and that I did. It was meant to be Dad and I thank the Lord that I kept such a precious gift of you.

I remember as a young girl with you and Mom we attended the First Baptist Church for Easter service. Its ironic that we also attend the First Baptist Church for Easter Service today!! We will continue our tradition with my family dinner and easter treats.

I miss you and love you so much!!! Stephanie

Happy Anniversary Dad and Mom ~~~~~

Today is your 54 years of marriage. I have wonderful memories of you and Mom of the love and joys that you shared together! I remember those loving memories of how much you showered Mom with your affection and your love for Mom when I was a young girl. You have taught me the values of happiness on how precious love is as I share with my husband.

I especially enjoy listening to your love songs that you and Mom shared together of songs by Vicente Fernandez. I had downloaded his music to listen to his beautiful songs that reminds me of you and Mom!

As I will continue my tradition in your honor, Keith and I will again this year will celebrate our anniversary in San Antonio in memory of you and your favorite places that you both cherished... El Mercado Market Square and Mi Tierra Mexician Restaurant.

I love you Dad and Mom!

December 29, 2010

Merry Christmas Dad; Just wanted to let you know how much I miss you and Mom. Cristal and Lenard and I miss all the great times we had while you were here on earth with us! I realize now, how important it was for us to build as many fun memories as we could before the Lord called you to go with Him. Because - as you always reminded us: "Tomorrow isn't promised to you". So, now, we have built many, many, fond memories of going with you to the Triple Espresso Comedy shows, the Klondike Kate Performances; Winter Carnival Parades, and our Stillwater adventures on our lunch boat cruise and celebrating New Years Eve dinner on the Minnesota Zephyr! Wow. That's only a few memories that you invited us to be part of! Thank the Lord, we are at peace, because we know that we will all be together again in heaven! Love you and miss you so, so, very much. We all love you and are keeping your memories alive until we all meet again! Love you and miss you Dad! Yolie, Lenard, and Cristal.

Merry Christmas Dad,

I just wanted you to know that I kept my promise that I made to both you and Mom, and I know how important it was to both of you for me to do what you requested.

I miss your humor Dad, and your great quotes - “You can’t get blood from a turnip” and especially “don’t make promises if you can’t keep them”! I will especially miss our Valentine’s Day & Saint Paddy’s Day celebration coming up – but I will proudly wear green and drink a green beer in your honor . . . .

I miss you both, and it gives me great comfort to know that you are both at peace.

I will sure miss sending you those Christmas gifts. I loved seeing your excitement in your voice and your face!
These are the wonderful memories that you would have wanted me to remember you by. I will always remember those memories of you in my heart.

This year, my family have a lot to be thankful for, but the biggest thing I'll always be thankful for is to have had you as my Dad and Grandpa to my kids. They have lots of great memories of you with them, and they know how much you loved them! They'll never forget you. Keep watch over us, and keep us safe. We'll love you forever and ever!

Dad,

The boys had their 1st VARSITY FOOTBALL GAME. You would have been so proud of your grandsons as they won their 1st game!

I know how much you loved watching the boys play football as it was your favorite sport. We know that you were with us in spirit cheering on for the boys to win!!

We are thinking of you and miss you very much.

Love you,

Stephanie

Daddy,
I would like to thank you for all of the beliefs and strengths that you have given me over the years. I will miss the way you would joke and tease with the kids. I know that your time with us was short, but you have left behind a huge mark on this world. May the lord keep you safe in his care, and his light shine upon your face untill we are all together as a family again. We love you very much and give mom a kiss from all of us.
Love Marisol Rigo and kids.
