Dear Rivera Family,
I am so sorry for your loss please accept my sincere condolences at this time. Something that I personally have found to be a great source of comfort is the thoughts expressed in the Bible at John 5:28,29 where we see that God is going to bring our loved ones back to life. Also at Revelation 21:4 we see that God is going to eliminate all of the causes for why we eliminate all of the causes for why we deal with sorrow,pain and even death itself. It is my sincere hope that these thoughts bring your family comfort a this time. Once again I am so sorry for your loss.

Dear Grandpa,
I will always remember those times from the Indians game to spanish music parties,to just having fun out in the garage with you.

But most of all I will always remember when you took care of me when I needed you.

I missed those times where you watched movies in your living room.

I will miss you lots like you will to......

I already muss you so much!!!!!!

Your Grandson,
Richie

Words cannot express the emptiness I have in my heart. Not only have I lost my father, the one who taught me so many lessons in life, I also lost my best friend, the one who picked me up when I was down. There are so many memories that will fill my emptiness but in reality, nothing will ever be the same. I too look forward to the day that I will see you again but until then, I will do my best to carry on in your footsteps. I promise you that I will care for the family just as you did and it warms my soul to know that I have another guardian angel watching over me. May God Bless you. I love and miss you very much. Your Son, Tony.

Dear Grandpa, I miss you dearly. I miss you sitting around in the garage trying to fix anything you can find. I also miss when you use to sit on the porch and wait with us for the icecream truck to come. You would make all of us laugh for the little silly things you would do (: I love you dearly. I can't wait to see you again !

Irma and family,

You have our deepest sympathy in Santo's passing. I was so sorry to read this in the paper. I just saw you both at the hospital not long ago.

I enjoyed talking with him over the years growing up and later living on 30th by my grandmothers.

You are blessed to be such a close knit family. Please know you are in our prayers.
