Thereso enjoyed surfing with a passion!  He traveled to Costa Rica, Hawaii, and Japan to seek the big waves.  He loved music, played the guitar with his brother, and loved to sing.  He also loved children.  He loved life!

His friends say "He had a very pleasant personality and did not have a mean bone in his body."  He had a multitude of friends who respected and loved him.

Thereso will be extremely missed by his family members and friends.  He is survived by his daughter, Angelica Adams Limpin, his mother, Teresita Santamaria, and brother, Troy Limpin.
