Dear Grandpa,

I feel so blessed to have only the greatest memories of you and Grandma.

I know that you and Grandma will be together for all eternity. I hope that you occasionally stop by to say hello to my mother; she would love the visit. I will miss you, but you will always be in my heart.

To the Tolentino family,

Thank you for inviting me to be a part of your family. The last 29 years have brought more joy and laughter than I could have imagined. I am forever grateful, that I was able to be a part of the family and witness the love that Papa T had for his family and in return, their love for him. Papa T will be missed but never forgotten.

Grandpa,

You are the sweetest man I have ever met. You will be forever missed. I know that you and Grandma are singing and dancing together now and there is a big smile on your face. I am so blessed to have had you in my life for 17 years. May you continue to watch over your family and friends. You will always be our guardian angel. Hopefully you will be able to help us win the Lotto :)

Love always,

Sue, Tim and Timmers
