Leopoldo Gonzalez Obituary

Brother, it´s been 14 years today since that horrible day occurred. Time has certainly flown by so quickly. The sound of your voice is still so distinctly heard within my head. I´d do anything to see you again. Thank goodness for your kids, we see you when we look at them! Miss you lots kid! One Love, US

Your Presence Is Still Missed Bro..Hope You Are Watching Over Your Family And Friends..

Hi Leo!
Javi and I were thinking about you and shared pictures of us 3 in Instagram. Although people get sad and you're missed, it's always a great thing to remember you and talk about you. You left a huge impressions in many of us and just know that you're still thought about and truly missed.

It's sad to hear that you have passed. My condolences to your family. I remember one day you asked me if I ever watch Scarface and I said nope. You told me that we have to watch it together. I totally enjoyed watching the movie with you, because you made sure to tell me "here comes a good part", then re-enact the scene along with the movie. You're smile was always infectious and you always made me crack up! I mean we would get the giggles for no reason. We would call each other dork! Miss you Dork! God had plans with you and I am sure that you are watching over us, especially your daughter. Blessing to you and yours.

Wow if you could see your nephew...you probably could...he is wonderful Leo! Miss you always kid.

Miss you like crazy and wish you were here to share my joy...

So much time has passed and we still miss you dearly. Always thinking about you kid...

Missing you like crazy Kid...not a day goes by without wishing you were here with us.

Continuously missing you kid......one love

Not a day goes by that I don't think of you my brother...I miss you so much! One love...

Leo,

You're remember by a lot of us.

For some reason I ended up at Ford City Mall, not too long ago, and as I walked around it brought back memeories from when we were all kids. When I got to a corner store in there, I remembered when it was Wild Pair and you worked there. I remember I wanted to see you up close and wanted you to speak to me, so I asked you for a pair of shoes. I was soooo nervous I grabbed the UGLIES pair! LOL. I remember you made a weird face as if thinking 'ilk... she likes these? ' LOL. I*'ll never forget that. You were wearing a white shirt, black pants and suspenders. I would walk past that store all the time, just to get a quick glimpse. So funny. I know you remember. You used to give off that big smile of yours as your eyes would squint as you smiled.

Anyway, just wanted to take you back to our high school days! :)

Leo, this Holiday season is the 7th without you... its still hurts like it was yesterday and the Holidays still suck like the first without. I just wish you were here; I mean really here. I miss you so much. I bet you had no clue that we would miss you as much as we do! Love you with all my heart.

Its been 7 very long hard years since you have been gone....We miss you terribly each and every day....Love you Kid!

Miss ya kid.....every minute of every day.

Miss you dearly....everyday

What would have been your 35th birthday just passed....wish you were here with us to celebrate. We miss you so much brother....nothing is the same and I guess I can't expect it to be. I would do anything to have you here with us.....missing you always...love you!

Miss ya Kid.....every second of every day!!! xoxoxo One Love

Leo:

A lot of people remember you and still talk about good times they shared with you.
I'll never forget you. You always walked around with a huge smile on your face. You were funny and always the life of the party. You're loved, missed and always remembered.

I always miss you every second of everyday and I will always have a hole in my heart.... I will always love my little brother, forever! Xoxoxo missing you always!

Missing you.... :(

Leo,

I miss you still....with all my heart. And I wish you were still with us...things will never be the same without you Brother....I love you so much kid.

Leo,
I can't believe that today marks 5 years since you have been gone. Trust me mijo that not a day goes by that we are not talking about or bringing you up. This could be the reason it does not seem like 5 years have passed already. I have missed you so much!!!! You were such a large part of our family and I see and feel it missing everyday. I know you are in a better place and with the company of amazing people, but I still miss you and wish you were driving next to me jamming out everywhere I go. I still look at my passenger side in the car and point there as if you are there jamming out with me. I also wait for the best part of the song and blast it like we use to do. I know you are proud of your children as they are growing up to be the most amazing little people I know. I hope you are happy with us all but those kids of yours are amazing and remind us of you everyday!!! I love you so much and think of you always!!!!! XoXo little bro and know you will never be forgotten!!!

Leo,

I miss you so much and always think about you everyday.xoxo

I wish you were here today even for just a little while so I could say Happy Birthday "bro" and see your Amazing smile.

The only gifts today will be the gifts you left behind; The laughter, joy and happiness... precious memories...the best kind.

Today I'll do my very best to try and find a happy place... struggling to hide my heavy heart and the tears that continue to flow down my face.

I'll sit quietly and look at your picture thinking of you with love; hoping you're doing ok in Heaven up above.

May the angels hold you close and sing you a Happy Birthday song... and I'll be sending wishes to you today and all year long.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY POLO!!!!

Missing you..give anything to go back to the Good Times

When will it start to be easier and not feel worse each Day?? Miss You So Much

Leo - I think of you so much. You were the guy I always liked and always looked forward to seeing around at different places. You were just a huge joy to be around. When you passed on I seriously felt like there was nothing more to life...I felt like you were the person I looked forward to seeing and felt like life would be boring and I had nothing to look forward to. I've been to many funerals and wakes...and I have never seen so many people at one, as you had at yours. The line was out the door....down the block and around the corner! Everyone will always remember that! You are so loved. Althoug many of us don't comment on your book, just know that we haven't forgotten you and that we still think of you all the time.
Love you - miss you.

Every day Brother.....every moment we think about you and miss you dearly...one love

Miss you daily bro....xoxo

Miss you and love you very very much!

Missing you so much...EVERY day.... xoxo

It's such a sad time for us all; with the holidays fast approaching.....it just cannot and will not EVER be the same. We miss you soooo much....things are 100% different. We think of you every second of everyday and love you with all of our hearts. You are the best brother anyone could ever ask for, you always put a smile on my face and for that I am forever grateful! Thinking of you & missing you dearly!

Adriana

Bro,

Missing you sooooo much....as usual. Everyday has sucked since you've been gone but this month even more so. If only we could change things...I know God had a plan for you and you are probably his shining angel but I can't help missing you so much. September 1st always brings back the memories of the last day we were together at the Cubs game...I wish I could go back to that day and put you in a bubble, nice and safe. We always did our best to keep you safe Polo. I love you so much and will forever remember you being the best little brother ever. You will ALWAYS BE MY HEART!

Polo,You are always thought of, but so much More in the last few weeks you have been on my mind with random memories and moments. I felt you around a lot and I just want to say thank you for your presence!! You comfort a friend more then ANYTHING else in life possibly could, miss and love you now, tomorrow and Always!!

Leo,

How I miss our special sister and brother bonding sessions. It's just so lonely and terrible without you. No matter what I try I just can't seem to lessen the pain. I miss, love and need you so much, DUDE!!! Life is so different and so empty without you in it! I wish I could pick up and go meet you for drink to talk about stuff and listen to your advice, whether I took it or not. I miss you yelling at me for not doing what you suggested and for being trustworthy. I love you and miss you more than words to say!!!
I always remember the last HUGE HUG I gave you and how I told you HOW MUCH I loved you... :-)

I love you sooooo much... and I miss you soo much

Leo,
There isn't a time that you don't "pop" into my head. I find myself thinking & talking of you often. I have so many good memories of you. Your smile, lights up any room. You smile ... I smile... you laugh ... I laugh... I just wanted to let you know that I miss & love you so much. Make sure you watch over your family.

Leo,

Miss you everyday more and more...nothing is the same without you here. The kids are getting so big and everytime I see them together, I wish you were still with us, having fun! Mari & I spent the whole day with them on Monday and all they do is talk about you and all the things you use to say and do! I also saw Genie the other day and he gave me pictures of your tattoos. Everyone misses you so much Polo.....Love you always and forever little brother!

Happy Birthday Polo!!! I love you soooooo much and wish you were here...:( Miss you very very much lil brother. We are always thinking about you...ALWAYS!

Happy Birthday Leo!!!!! Thinking of you everyday and letting you know how much I love you and miss you. XoXo!!!!

You have always been there for me...and the family needs you now more than anything! Words will never be able to describe how much I miss you and how much our lives have changed since you've been gone. The hurt continues every day...I love you more than you will ever know my little brother...

Leo,
I believe life is getting harder and harder without you bro. Life seems to keep throwing us curve balls and its so difficult. I really miss you soooooooooo much, it still hurts!!!!

I think about you everyday...sometimes more than others... I miss my brother, my partner in crime, but most importantly the man in my life that always told me the truth about how guys are. I will always need you and your advice more than you will ever know!! LOVE YOU and MISS YOU LOTS!!! XOXO

I'm trying Leo......I'm tryin! Miss you!!!!!!

Leo,

I know that Tio Capy is with you and Tia Martha now...that makes the family feel at peace knowing that you are all together. But it doesn't change the fact that we miss you all so much & love you dearly! xoxo

Leo,
As the Holiday Season passes...everyone asks how was your Christmas and New Year and I always answer OKAY. I haven't been able to say Great since you have been gone. It's just not the same anymore... we make it enjoyable for Alyssa and Josh because we know that is what you would have wanted, but we dwell on the fact that for us, it's not the same. Your light, laughter and smile that illuminated our lives has dimmed for us and we just have not been the same and will never be the same. We love you so, so much and miss you more than you know. XOXO lil brother!!

Leo,
Christmas will never be the same without you...nothing will! We are trying to keep our heads up but its just so different now...miss you always

Leo,
With the holidays fast approaching, all that I can say is...it doesn't feel any easier. Words can't describe how much we miss you Bro. I ask God to please look after the family as we, yet again go through the holidays without you. You are forever missed and forever loved! xoxo

Missing you daily my brother, miss you soooo much....I love you!

Just because time has passed You are still thought of... Much Love n Respect to your family,,
Luv,
Heide Rivera

Well, I'm not going to lie and say that September 8 was at all easy...it was the worst day of our lives and it will continue to be the worst day every year until forever. I know you are with us all the time Leo, you send your little signs :) The kids loved their bday party, they talked about it all weekend. The family tries so hard to make sure that they are always smiling but they miss you soooooo much & talk about you always. You are always on my mind, I think of you constantly, every minute of the day. Although the hole in my heart continues to ache...I smile because you are my brother and have always been THE BEST BROTHER anyone could ever ask for. I love you!!!

Two years ago you were taken from us very unexpectedly. Although you may not be here with us anymore we feel your presence and see you through your kids. They are just as amazing as you. We all miss you and think of you everyday. Love you!!!!

I found my 8th grade autograph book a couple months ago while going thru my closet, and I laughed at what you wrote. You told me not to break too many hearts...and I remember thinking how funny that was because you were the heartbreaker!! I'll never forget all those walks around the neighborhood we took, just talking and laughing. You are missed greatly, my friend!

Prayers are with your family Leo. Today marks 2 years since you've been gone. May you rest in peace and look over your family.

I can't believe it's been 2 years. My parents miss you...we all do. We all think of you and see so much of you in Alyssa. She's so amazing!! :)

Thinking of you today, and remembering you every time I look at your beautiful, funny and very happy daughter.

Polo, It's been two years and it still doesn't seem possible that you are gone. I see someone that looks like you and have the natural reaction to speak to You and all within a split second its like the air is sucked out of me cause it hits me it's not you and the pain sets in. I want to believe that God does things and puts people in are lives and takes them for a reason, but I don't understand why he took you. You had so much more to live for you had so many more memories to make. It's just so hard to accept. I know you already know what an important part of my life you are, you are the little brother I never had. You always looked out for me and still continue to, Thank you for touching my life, for being you. I miss you so much. Words can't evan explain the void in our lives without you physically here with us, but always know your in my heart, on my mind and you've touched me down to my soul. I love you Polo.

Leo,
Two years ago today...Mari, you, Chris & I were at the Cubs game having such a great time. You always made me crack up! Like when Chris & I got to Mari house and the first thing out of your mouth was, "Hey what are you doing wearing Josh's shirt?" :) I'm so glad we went to that game and had such a great time with you! I miss all those times we spent together Bro....I Miss You Sooooooo Much, it hurts everyday. You are the world's best brother, THE BEST. I love you so much Nene!

Leo,
The other day I was watching a movie about someone who lost their brother. At the end of the movie... I felt like the wind was knocked out of me and I just started to CRY so hard that my face hurt so much. The guy in the movie makes a move to gesture to his brother in heaven. Everytime I drive anywhere I look next to me and jam out as if you are still sitting there with me. Everytime I hear music and I think of you I make your signature fist pump move up at you in heaven. I love you and miss you more than anyone will every know. You truly completed our G-Unit and now we truly feel a void in our circle. LOVE YOU and MISS YOU!!! XOXO

Leo,

No matter how strong the family tries to be....WE MISS YOU SOOOOO MUCH! Your children continue to provides us with all of your traits and sense of humor. They remind us so much of you, they look just like you, act just like you...THEY ARE YOU! Words cannot describe how much NOS HACES FALTA. I love you my brother and I miss you everyday more and more...

Leo...I always loved you. You know that. You were always the cute, funny and most happiest person around. You were good company and fun to hang out with. Every time I would see you, you were smiling. I pointed that out to your aunt at the wake. She was sad and when I pointed that out, she completely stopped crying. I pointed out how you were smiling in ever picture - you had a beautiful smile. I told her you lived a good life and had lots of fun, friends....love! It's incredible how many people's lives you touched Leo. I have NEVER been to a wake where the lines were out the door, down the street and around the corner and down the block!! You are so loved! We lost touch for a few years and enjoyed the little time I saw you around at places. I will never forget the last memory I have with you....OMG...you were such a travieso!!! I sit here and laugh as I remember. Someone we both knew was having a party, and I was there with my boyfriend - I waited outside the bathroom door....and as I waited for the bathroom.....YOU came out. Hahhaha....you grabbed me and pulled me in and shut the door and said..."alone at last"....hahaha.....you tried to sound sexy as you said it with a bit of sarcasm of course!! OMG....I told you to get out – you were gonna get me in trouble!! You laughed so hard....you thought it was hilarious and I was freaking out! What would my boyfriend have thought?? Hahahhah.....you're something else. That's why you're so missed. You were so much fun. I think of you so much more than you would ever think. I came across this web page because I was thinking of you and I decided to google your name. I'm really glad I came across this website. It's sooooooo awesome to hear the good stories your family has to share of you. The music you liked....the things you liked to do...things that made you mad....lol....I would love to learn of more. Love you, miss you and always thinking of you!

Thinking about you everyday... Seeing you through the faces and the personalities of your son and daughter. Miss you very much dude... not a day goes by that I do not talk about you or wish you were still here with us. XOXO!!

Think about you always Leo & miss you so very much....Love you lil brother!

You will be missed Leo. May you R.I.P. Love Your friend Victor

Our Precious Little Brother

We Wish We Could See You One More Time
Come Walking Through Mom's Door
But, We Know That Is Impossible
We Will Hear Your Voice No More
We Know You Can Feel Our Tears
And You Don’t Want Us To Cry
Yet, Our Hearts Our Broken
Because We Can’t Understand Why
Someone So Precious Had To Die
We Pray That God Will Give Us Strength
And Somehow Get Us Through
As We Struggle With This Heartache
That Was Caused By Losing You

In Precious Memory Of You Leo
Who Walked Through Heaven's Gate September 8, 2008
