Nuestro mas sentido pesame para toda la familia. La familia Ruiz Alvarado les mandamos nuestras condolencias y apoyo en este tiempo tan dicificil para ustedes. We know that at this time there are no words that any one could say to alleviate the pain and sadness y’all are going through at this time. Our deep condolences to y’all. My Tio is in our players and we pray that God gives you all the strength to get through this roughs times. He is now with our Lord and savior and will for ever be remembered by all off us. His charming smile and his funny jokes, and the talks about their adventures (Los Ruiz) will never be forgotten. ‘Till we meet again Tio Felix…
Estimada familia.
Es complicado escoger las palabras para un momento como este. Les recuerdo que tienen mucha familia y gente a su alrededor que los tendrá en oración para que les de el consuelo y la tranquilidad del mundo para sobrepasar la pérdida de un ser querido como la de un padre.
La memoria de mi Tio Felix seguirá viva en nuestros corazones cada vez que alguien lo recuerde.
Saben nosotros hemos aprendido que no se van del todo. Siguen cerca, bien cerca. Siempre están en algún lugar pendientes de nosotros.
No los podemos tocar, así como no se puede tocar el amor… pero si podemos sentirlos. No. No están en la tierra. Pero sí en la sonrisa de su recuerdo, en el silencio de cada suspiro, créelo nuestro seres queridos siguen con nosotros.
No los busques tan lejos.
Yo estoy segura que mi Tio les dijera algo mas o menos asi:
“ yo estoy bien, y seguiré siempre con ustedes.
Yo les sostengo cada vez que sientan caer.
Yo les acaricio cada vez que comienza a doler.
Yo sé que sienten mi inesperada partida y lamento causarles este gran dolor. Pero yo seguiré vivo en sus corazones porque no se puede separar lo que se ata en el corazón. No se puede matar un sentimiento como el amor que yo siento por ustedes. Solo muere quien es olvidado. Yo les cuidare, protegeré y acompañaré siempre. No los he dejado… tan sólo me adelanté un poco en el camino y volveremos a estar juntos.
Cuándo nos reencontraremos, sólo Dios lo sabe. Mientras tanto estaré aquí, a su lado…”
Con mucho cariño de parte hermanos, primos, sobrinos en la familia Ruiz Alvarado en San Jose, California estamos con ustedes y compartimos su dolor.
“Tio Felix, que el Señor lo tengo en su santa gloria”
Zayra and family
