My dear Theo....
I am sitting at my computer and just ordered flowers for your wake and funeral... Even knowing your battles, we are all still not prepared to let you go, but we know it is the Lord calling you home... We trust in Christ's resurrection and also in yours and know that you are reunited with Thea Eleni and Theo Taki... We love you so much, Theo... You were truly an unsung hero within our family, and I never really realized that until now. I owe much of my life to you, having brought my dad here and helped my parents plant their roots here for all of us to prosper... I love you so very much and am grateful to have shared life with you... Forever in my heart and in my thoughts and never forgotten... May your memory be eternal...
Your loving niece, Dina Mancillas xoxoxo
