Thinking of you grandpa. Whenever I see the jukebox you gave me when I was 11, I always smile and think of you.

Thinking of you grandpa. Whenever I see the jukebox you gave me when I was 11, I always smile and think of you.
I thought about you today. I am having a son, and I thought about how proud you would have been to know the Beltran name would go on. It deeply saddens me that you aren't here to see it. However, your legacy is cemented in all of us and that brings a simultaneous indescribable comfort to my soul.
I love you and miss you, very much.
Love,
Little Nic
Dad its been close to 4 years since you have passed. I miss you tremendously but you know what? I feel that your spirit and energy lies within me!
I retired like you with no thoughts about looking back and I moved forward with enjoying life!
I have absorbed your mental strength and I have survived so many of life's struggles which are way too many to list here.
We had are differences but you and I always managed to work things out.
I was blessed with being the only family member (along with Cynthia) to have sat with you (at your favorite donut shop) less than 24 hours before your death.
I was also blessed with the premonition that something was wrong thereby leaving you repeated messages on your cell phone.
I respected your wishes dad and never violated entering your residence/privacy because we Beltran's are "very private people".
Monetary possessions and the lust for money can only result in sadness, betrayal and family misery.
Glad I am free of all that dad.
Love you forever, MJB
Grandpa I am so lost without you. I am trying to be strong by remembering your advice, how death is a part of life. But I miss you so much. I will always be grateful that I got to you have in my life for 34 years. I was just thinking how you were there for me for every important moment in my life, from graduating from high school and college to getting my first job, getting married, and there for all 3 of my babies. Now that you are gone my life has changed I feel like I don't know what to do on my Sundays I am waiting for you to show up, it's so unreal that you are gone :(... The only thing that gives me peace is knowing you are with grandma again. I will always remember our special moments together I love you and miss you so much...
