Tata I'm going to miss you so much. I feel so blessed to have had such a strong, loving grandpa. You worked so hard your whole life to provide for your family. I will forever cherish all the time you spent with us and all the memories we made. I wish my daughters could have had you in their lives longer but heaven needed another angel. Your Chocolata's heart is broken..La Mirellas love of music and dance is no doubt the Luna in her. We're going to miss you Grandpa Cowboy
