Papa,

It’s been a while so let me back track.
On January 29 we lost my Tio Robert. He was a unique individual and had a hard life but he loved his family. I learned a lot from him, mostly what not to do and what not to be like but he knew that. My Tio would take care of me when I was a baby and take me to go play at the park and just be there whenever my mom needed him. I would always say that he was my favorite Tio because of that and because he spent so much time with me. I would go and visit him when he was at the farm or give him clothes/ he would take. I learned from my mom what unconditional love is with him. Grandma loves her family especially her brothers and sisters and wouldn’t turn her back on them no matter what. My Tio was loved by many and had a smile on him that would make others smile, he would always say chagito reyes should have been a boxer or call me bad names that I will tell you when you are older.

He had a good funeral and it gave the family an opportunity to see you and finally meet you.
I want you to know that I will always love you and show you unconditional love just like grandma has shown me. You can do whatever you want as long as you put your mind to it.
