A Tribute to our loving Father

Jose Quintana Castroverde Sr.

January 21, 1954 to July 27, 2013

That day you left us will never

be forgotten just as you will never be forgotten. You are

in our heart,

our minds, our thoughts and

yes even in our prayers.

The darkest hour of the darkest day

of our life

It was around 7 am, July

27, 2013. Our father whom

we always looked up as

the strongest and the

wisest, our hero gasping for

his next breath. The sound

of his labored breathing

gradually subsided . We

along with our mother

Jocelyn, sister in law

Gouldelie and a family

friend Roger and nanay

andring was helplessly

watched him pass away.

We have no words

to express the moment. It

was unbearable. My

brother Jun2 was on his

way to work and mike was

in their house.

I often find myself missing our father so

very much. The sadness still comes

along once in awhile, the joy in the

memories is so dear to us. On the days

when I am really missing him, the

memories we have with our father is

priceless and the experienced is so

memorable.

We never knew that this was the last memories we have

A Husband to my mother who’s love never fails

A sweet lolo to Xilcka Mae, Xianne Mae, Xyiesha Mae Bret, Dimple Mae and Jose III. A

very strict yet affectionate father to us , we cant really say that he is a perfect husband to our

mother but since he is the man whom my mother loves so much. Grandfather , a father and a

husband. He has been and will always remain a beacon of light for us, guiding us through the

treacherous passage of life.

You are a hero, a protector, a disciplinarian to us. You are my father and I

love you dearly. I miss you here on Earth, but, I know that one day we will be

together again on a new journey. You helped me through this life, from the

time I was born till the day you left and died to this world.

Words cannot heal the pain of losing someone so dear.May the good memories hold deep in our heart. He was an adorable

person. May God give us the strength to overcome the pain of this

great loss. God has ended his suffering that is the only consolation

that we can hope for

I find that it helps us a lot

to write down my thoughts

feelings and experience

and this presentation that

we can kept for the next

generation . Words are not

enough to show how

much we missed him but

in our own special way

we can express.

He was a man of principles

Your Family misses you so much

Turn over of philippine national Flag to my mother symbolizes that my father serves the country.

We missed you

so much

papa, lolo joe
