I am a friend of Maria's. I did not know her Father but how wonderful he lived a long and full life!
This is all you can ask for.  We know he's with our Lord and in peace!
Spirit Blessings to Maria and her family.

Papa was one of the most caring family man I have ever had the pleasure of knowing and I am forever grateful for the memories I shared with him as a member of his family. He always put others first and always had a smile on his face making everyone in the room happier. Today is a celebration of Papa’s life as he lived a full life filled with love from his family and friends.

Papa was the best grandfather!!! He always had time for all of us grandchildren. He always took us, swimming, ice skating, A’s games, amusement parks and concerts.  Every time I saw him as I got older he always told me how much he loves me, my family, all of us. Papa will greatly be missed and I was lucky to have been his granddaughter.

Papa, the day you left and gained your wings my heart  broke in two! I wish you could have stayed but heaven needed you!
There is no words to express what you meant to me, and for being the Dad I didn’t have , A honorable man with a Wonderful heart! I miss you! We may have not been related by blood but You were a perfect stepdad and will treasure
