1. GUADENCIO “PETE” GUAJARDO
MY DADDY IS GONE BUT WILL NEVER BE
FORGOTTEN EVER!
WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU LOSE THE MAIN
MAN YOU LOOK UP TO?

5. THE NIGHT BEFORE
THEY CALLED BUT I
DIDN’T ANSWER
BECAUSE I THOUGHT
IT WAS ABOUT HIS
BED AND I WAS
GOING TO BE THERE
IN THE MORNING..
I WASN’T FEELING
WELL BUT I WISH I
HAD ANSWERED THE
PHONE..

6. MY DADDY-O

7. I WAS ABOUT 20 MINUTES LATE UPON
FINDING HIM WITH THE PARAMEDICS
STANDING AROUND HIM…
HE HAD SUCH A
PEACEFUL LOOKING
FACE…

9. AS I FELL TO MY KNEES …..
I NEVER HAD THE CHANCE TO
TELL HIM I WAS SORRY FOR ALL
THE DUMB THINGS I DID AS A
CHILD
(OTHERS SAID HE KNEW)

10. I NEVER KNEW HOW TO FULLY HELP HIM WHEN HE
WAS IN PAIN AND SUFFERING OR JUST HAVING A
BAD DAY
BUT HE ALWAYS SAID I DID GREAT

11. He sat and watched the cars pass under the big oak tree by his apts.
He always said “im going to work” and he would sit there for hours!

12. NO ONE UNDERSTOOD THE BOND
THAT ME AND MY DADDY HAD! IT WAS
LIKE NO OTHER..

15. EVERYTIME I WISH…
I WISH THAT YOU WERE
HERE..
To be here with me and to meet these lil
booger that remind me of you with all their
silly antics! You would have loved your
grandbabies.

19. ~Any man can be a
father. It takes someone
special to be a dad~

21. He was such a fighter! literally
as a youngster and an old man!
He fought for what he wanted
and for his life!!
