We will miss you Uncle Roberto


Well this is a sad blog today. My Uncle Roberto passed away today. He was such a fun and amazing person. I will never forget going to his house for his yummy yummy Argentine BBQ.  He has such a funny sense of humor. I remember we had a family party at my aunt susans house and my uncle steve was playing the guitar. He was singing this funny song that was supposed to be sad.  well then out of the back of the yard we hear this soft crying. we turn around and Roberto has his face in the saddest (fake) cry that turned into wailing. we were all laughing so hysterically. He was sometimes the life of the party. Oh we loved it. Well now that he is gone it has me thinking about it all.

I know that Roberto is in a better place. The lord has called him home to do a special work im sure. He is in a better place free from pain.

I know that we will see Roberto again and that Diane Jeremy Erik and Roberto are sealed together as a family. That brings loads of comfort knowing that they will be together in the hereafter

My heart and love goes out to Diane and Erik and Jeremy. I hope that you feel peace and comfort and I pray that you will feel the love we have for you at this time. I know that the Lord loves you and has his reasons even though we may not see it right now.  We will keep you in our prayers!

  5. Oh Bridget, what a beautiful thing for you to take time to share with us your wonderful memories. It made me smile. I am sad that we didn't have more time with Uncle Roberto these last few years, but so grateful for the great times that we have had. What a blessing families are. We hate not being closer. What a blessing to know that this life is a small moment, with many family reunions to come.
    So grateful for you Bridget. I hope your life is full of many happy and wonderful experiences.
    With much love,
    Aunt Glenna
