Rest in Peace Robbie

I haven't been updating all my blogs for over a month now and I feel so guilty because I love to update my readers on what is happening with me and my spouse. First of all, we loss a great member of my husband's family last November 1, 2014 and this is by far the hardest thing anyone had to go through especially with our entire family and close friends. I cannot give a lot of details about this for now since it is still under investigation. The entire community of El Paso, Texas loss a great citizen, a father, a brother, a son and a well respected member of our local enforcement. We are still in great sadness but together as a family we will do our best to get by and remember all the happy memories with my husband's step brother. We are hoping that justice will be done. May you rest in peace brother!

Husband's Grandpa Passed Away

It is so hard to deal with pain especially when you lose a loved one. Yesterday, we loss one of the greatest man I've ever known since I married my husband. Dear husband's grandpa (abuelo) passed away yesterday of old age. He was 92 years old and he was a World War 2 veteran who fought in the Philippines during his active years in the military. He is survived by his wife who is my husband's grandma and she is 90 years old. They raised seven children all together along with their grand-children, great-grand children and great-great-grandchildren.

My husband had a lot of great memories with him and we are praying for his eternal rest. We are also praying that Grandma (abuela) will recover from her loss and we are praying that she will still be here when hubby and I will have our first child in the future.

Rest in peace Grandpa Lalo! We will miss you.

Rest in Peace Gabe, We Will Miss You

My heart goes out for the family of my former colleague who passed away this morning from a car accident. Though we don't want to believe that it was his fault but the incident could have been prevented if he did not over speed and crashed into a trailer which causes his car to lit on fire. According to the police report, my friend Gabrielle died on the scene at 1:45 earlier this morning. I am so devastated because he is only 21 years old plus he has a 2 year old daughter who needs him. I am praying that may his soul find peace and may his family get through this sudden death. We will missed you Gabe and till we meet again! You may rest in peace brother!

Rest in Peace Baby Angela, We Love You!

Earlier today, I was chatting with my sister Evonne and my Mom. They informed me that my first cousin baby Angela passed away. She will turn 1 year old by June 14th. I was emotionally shock and I could not help myself but cry. I could not believe because she was only a baby and my Aunt Marilou was devastated. The doctor said that she died of cardiac arrest. They just found out that she has heart failure.

The rest of our family is helping my Aunt for the funeral. I feel really bad because I have not met her. I am the oldest grandchild on my Mom's side and I was planning to see them when I go back to the Philippines and visit them. I told my mom to keep an eye for my Aunt Marilou because she is pregnant also. I know my Aunt Marilou loved her so much because she is the only daughter she has among four children.

We are praying that baby Angela's soul may rest in peace. I know that she is in the loving arms of our Creator.
