I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.
With all my love Tina

We truly regret that Polo's life was so short but in that time he served as a wonderful role model for his family and everyone around him. He was soft spoken, humble and passionate about his life. To the very end, he faced his challenges with extreme courage and humor and never allowed others to share the burden of his illness. He leaves behind a loving family because he gave them a world of love. He will be missed and we know he's in a better place now.......Love, Linda & Richard Zamora

Dearest Family,
I join with so many others who knew your husband and father in offering our deepest sympathy on his passing. Although it is little consolation at this sad time, it should be of some satisfaction to know that in his passing you can celebrate the end of a very long and productive life.
The measure of a life well-lived is not in how much money one has or what possessions they have accumulated, but rather through the lives they touched and the sorrow they leave behind. If the outpouring of sympathy on his loss is any indication, and it most certainly is, you can proudly and confidently say that his indeed was a life well-lived.
May you find peace and comfort in knowing that his loss is felt by all who knew and loved him.
In Sympathy,
Brett and Veronica Von Blon
