Dad was our protector and someone we could always count on for support. He is survived by his wife, Roseann of 60 years; daughters Leticia (Peter) and Celeste (David); three grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren. 

Dad we hold you close within our hearts and there you will remain, to walk and guide us through our lives until we meet again. 

Love you Dad
