Recordándote en tu aniversario y cumpleaños. Hace ya tres años que te fuiste y párese que fue ayer, recordando tu sonrisa nos da una alegría y un nuevo amanecer. Por ser la gran persona que fuiste nos aferramos a ti con nuestros recuerdos y sigues estando aquí. Tus hijos te recuerdan como el gran padre y amigo qué fuiste para ellos y en mi corazón te recuerdo como un gran esposo y maravilloso amigo. Tu fuiste nuestra felicidad durante vida y nuestra tristeza al partir porque nos marcaste la vida a cada uno de nosotros. El amor que tu nos diste nunca lo olvidaremos, por ser el gran hombre que fuiste en nuestros corazones siempre te llevaremos. Fuiste un gran ejemplo de lo que representa una buena persona en la comunidad de Rio Grande, una persona en quien alguien podía depender y confiar. En éste día, muchos recuerdan la amistad qué les brindaste, el corazón puro que tenías y la ayuda que regalaste. Te fuiste sin ningún adiós, pero se que desde el cielo nos cuidas con mucho amor.

Pasa otro año sin ti y todavía nos sentimos tristes, pero tan bendecidos con todos los maravillosos recuerdos.

¡Feliz cumpleaños en el cielo Barbarooo!
