Uncle, thank you for your shared life with us. You truly made us happier while in your presence. I am confident that you are having the same effect on the angels that are watching over you now. You may have continued on your life's journey but being in our hearts, you have never left us. You are & always will be in our thoughts & hearts.

Missed You!

Hana Pangestu-Camacho Sep 21, 2011

One of the hardest part moving to a different country is being far away from my my parents and sisters. Loosing my father 11 years ago was a really tough for me until I got to know you and your family. I feels very lucky that I have two wonderful fathers in my life.

Loosing you is very hard for me. It feels like I loose another father all over again. I will miss you both dearly. Thank you for giving me another wonderful family in my life. I will cheerish all of your memories with them forever. I know that both of you are taking care of us from above.

Love you always,

Hana

A Great Friend

Lydia Rogers Sep 21, 2011

We were blessed to have a friend in our lives, especially when we met a weddings or quincenerias and you always sat next to my husband Brian and he loved sitting next to you and hear your stories, he always asked when the next party was and if you would be there. Thank you for been a great friend to my husband, we missed you dearly.

Dear Dad,

Raul Camacho Sep 21, 2011

If I could only spend one more second, one more minute, one more hour, one more day, one more month, one more year, one more decade, one more life time with you - I would.

I love you and missed you dearly

My Eulogy

Raul Camacho Jan 26, 2011

My dad worked as Chef most of his life

When he was 9 yrs old he used to shine shoes on Main St. and right before his teenage years he used to pick cotton in West Texas

My father worked hard throughout his whole life

My dad worked hard to provide for his family, as he got older he felt guilty at times that he couldn’t have given more

He didn't realize that he was already given more riches a family can ever dream of

He gave us laughter

He gave us joy

He gave us guidance

He gave us comfort

He gave us moral support

Whenever we fell down, he was there to help us get back up

He gave us faith in God

He gave us love

My dad was a good father

His only weakness was that he suffered from Alcoholism, a disease that I consider worse than cancer. Despite all that

He was never abusive

He never left any scars in our Hearts

He never left us homeless

Now about his biggest strengths

He loved God.

He loved my mother dearly

He has always been proud of my brothers and I

He believed in us

He loved each daughter in-law as if there were his own true daughter

His grandchildren were his pride and joy

He also showed us the importance to love your family

My father got it right, I am so proud of him and love him for that

Another strength he had is –

You all –

You all played a huge role in his life

You gave him good memories

You make him feel appreciated

You gave him joy

Each every one of you had a special place in his heart

You probably didn’t know this, but he prayed for you all

He wished you all good health, happiness, and God’s blessings

“Dios te vendiga” he used to say when you all left his presence

Today I ask you to please return the favor in his honor.

Pray for him.

Wish your love ones, family, neighbors, friends, people at work, people with other political views, people who made you upset and even your enemies. Wish them good health, happiness and God’s blessings.

We’re all children of God.

_________________________________

Finally, a subject rarely brought up and that is, “Time”.

TIME is PRECIOUS

Try to capture it

Time can be a good Teacher and a good Diary

Time is also a good Healer

Time allows you to capture memories

TIME IS PRECIOUS

Capture as much as you can

Capture your kid’s joy

Capture quality time with your love ones

Capture what is good

You can capture time

Time – will even capture God’s presence if you pay attention

Take pictures, take videos because time goes by fast. Before you know it, time has gone

Don’t let time slip away with your family and the people you love most

You can capture time

You can freeze it and even rewind it if you know how

It’s a beautiful feeling to reflect

I am so happy that I am able capture my dad during all the times I was with him

On Tuesday September 21st at 6:30pm - Time was up

No more time with dad

No more

I wish I had more of him. Hopefully, I will in the next life when my time comes

Remember, TIME is PRECIOUS

God bless you all and THANK YOU for your TIME being here with my DAD.

Foot Prints

Raul Camacho Jan 25, 2011

Sand Poem dedicated to Roy Manuel Camacho

One night I had a dream...
I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord, and
Across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand;
One belonged to me, and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of my life flashed before us,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that many times along the path of my life,
There was only one set of footprints.
I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in my life
This really bothered me, and I questioned the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
You would walk with me all the way;
But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life,
There is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why in times when I
needed you the most, you should leave me.
The Lord replied, "My precious, precious
child. I love you, and I would never,
never leave you during your times of
trial and suffering.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."

a caring man, a family man...

My Grandpa

Zachary Camacho Sep 26, 2010

His love and care will always be in my heart forever, there are so many memories of me and my grandpa together to share but there are not enough words to describe how great my grandpa was. I remembered that if you were ever down or sad that he would always be there to pick you right back up. He was also known as a comedian, there wasn't a day that went by without him making you laugh.The doctors said he passed away on Tuesday, September 21 at 6:32pm but his spirit lives on forever with God. Ill miss him, but I know when its my time that we will meet again.

May he rest in peace with God our father

God bless you grandpa
Love always,
Zachary Camacho

My memory

Mary Jo Camacho Sep 26, 2010

Grandpa, you will always be missed and your memories will always remain with us. I remember when you were in the hospital and one of you last requests was for a cup of coffee. It hurt me so much to tell you, no, because the nurses wouldn’t allow it, you were too ill. I now wish that I granted your wish. Coffee, since then has been one of my favorite drinks. I crave it more than ever and enjoy every sip thinking of you.

You always came to me with all you complaints about Grandma (jokingly). I loved to hear them all and I would always side with you. Grandma didn’t mind because she knew that we had an understanding. You always had a great sense of humor and you shared it with anyone who crossed your path.

Grandpa, you rest in peace now beside the almighty God. You don’t worry about anything. Grandma will be well taken care of and remember that she is not alone. We are here to make sure that she is as comfortable as possible and that she has everything she needs. We love you dearly Grandpa! The most beautiful thing is that you left us with wonderful memories for us to cherish. I love you with all my heart!
