Dearest Maggie, Barbara (Joe), Robert & Ronnie
My heart and prayers are with you at this sad sad time. When I heard the news, I selfishly thought of my father, and how much I know he would be so happy to see TJ. My strongest memory is just how much my Dad loved TJ. Dad always enjoyed seeing all the Taijeron family, but I know he had close bond and a special place in his heart for Mariano. What I will always remember is TJ's crazy sense of humor - dishing it out, but he could take it too, and his Guamanian cooking skills. One time, in that last year, when I went to visit my dad, I remember Daddy saying he didn't want anything to eat - he was WAITING for TJ to come visit later that day - because TJ would always make something my dad loved! You know those two are setting up the bbq in heaven now!
Love to you all,
Cousin & Auntie
