San Antonio Express-News, rogelio sanchez November 29, 1928 - August 7, 2013 Dear Dad, Today, August 7th, marks one year without you in our lives; a year in which we have all missed you so much. I thought of you today, Dad, yesterday and the day before that too. Each day that has passed since you went to be with God and Mom has been difficult knowing you were not here. We miss your gentle peace, your serene smile, your kindness, and your wonderful stories. Memories of you fill our minds and hearts each day, some make us smile, some make us cry- making tamales together, you and the boys taking hunting trips, breakfasts together, your special whistle, family holidays, your bedtime ritual, kissing you good night and so many more. So many times we've picked up the phone to share good news, let you know we were home safely or just to say hi. You were such a good man and set a wonderful example for your family. Thank you for all that you taught us - to love your spouse, to respect family, to be a good friend, to quietly help others, to work hard and maintain a high work ethic, and to love God. Your children and grandchildren reflect these qualities you shared. We are happy that you are not suffering anymore, not being at home, missing mom and your friends. Dad, thank you for everything, for your love and your understanding. We love you and miss you so much. Now you are with your treasure in heaven; we treasure each memory until we can see you again. Good night, Dad. Love always from your children Roy, Norma, Rose, Paul, Michael, Albert and their families Philippians 4:4-9
