Dear Papa,
Thank you for always making me feel welcome in your home.
You are a true GENTLEman with a GREAT LOVE for your family.
It was a pleasure teaching your youngest granddaughter.
Nicole, your "PRINCESS", is an ANGEL on Earth in a large part
due to the love and guidance she had from you... her "Papa".
I was so happy to introduce Nicole to more advanced literature and
entertainment - you knew your "Princess" was ready, willing and
able to understand and enjoy characters like Laura Ingalls,
Lucy Pevensie and Anne of Green Gables.
You will always be Nicole's hero, her Superman.
She was very proud of this trophy she drew for you.
Nicole couldn't wait to give you the projects she made for you -
you always accepted them with a big smile, a nice compliment,
a hug and a kiss.
Nicole is most proud that you always remembered she was
and will always be your "Princess".
With love & admiration,
Mrs. B.

There are no words to fully express what Kelly meant to my family and I . Thinking back on all the memories he was a part of it's hard to narrow down just one. Christmas gatherings..new years eves..barbeques...trips to the lake..are just a few. For me personally I will always remember him reaching out to me telling me to jump into the lake and that I could do it. Naturally I was scared but knowing he was there arms out towards me gave me the courage to jump. Into the water I went and then right up into his loving arms that held me tight while I proudly exclaimed.."I did it!" To which he replied " I told you so ,now go do it again!" Kelly was just that way..always encouraging..always loving..he believed in you before you believed in yourself. I am forever grateful to have had the time I did with him and to have witnessed all the love he had for his family. It was a beautiful thing to see. I will smile everytime I think of him. I take comfort in knowing he's watching over all those whose lives he touched. Until we meet again. I love you.
Debbie.

Arquelio, the embodiment of love, enriched our lives with his selfless nature. His profound kindness and generous spiritsuch a rare gift to humankind. He radiated thoughtfulness in every gesture, reflecting an unwavering faith that inspired all who knew him. The fond memories of a friend's father outshine the sorrow we feel now. We mourn his departure while celebrating a life nobly lived. May he be at peace in God's heavenly delight.

Dear Tio Kelly,
It's hard to express in words how deeply I miss you. Your presence brought so much joy, laughter, and wisdom into our lives. The memories we shared will forever be cherished in my heart.
You were not just my God Father or uncle; you were more like my grandfather and a mentor. Your kindness, generosity, and strength were truly inspiring. The love and care you showed towards Ash, mom, dad and myself will always be remembered.
Your passing has left a void that cannot be filled, but I find comfort in knowing that you are at peace now. I will forever hold onto the lessons you taught me and the family values you instilled in me. The same values I live by with my wife Ruby.
Thank you for being a part of my life and for leaving such a loving impact on me. Your legacy will live on through the lives you touched.
Rest in peace, Tio Kelly. May your soul find eternal serenity.
With all my love,
Your Godson, Elban Kelly Rivera

My Grandpa (Grampy),
How lucky was I to have a grandpa who could quite literally do it all! And if you didn't know it, you would learn how to do it and then teach me. Grandpa, you filled my life with the most beautiful memories but most importantly, you were the best teacher. You taught us how to explore nature, play catch, play badminton, ride a bike, roller blade, and then eventually how to drive a car. When we didn't have anything to do, you taught us how to be creative. Grab a box, grab some paper, and create something. Most importantly, you taught us how to be brave. You'd let us climb all of those big boulder just to tell us not to climb back down but to jump down. You would always say "don't worry, I'll catch you!" Sometimes you did, sometimes you didn't you, but you wanted me to learn that I could do it myself and I would be okay. And I was! Thank you for everything my Grandpa! Grandpa, I promise to remember all of the memories and all of the lessons and continue to pass them along. And I pray, whenever I have my own little ones that you be there whispering in their ear and guiding them just like you did for all of us. Grandpa, your princess will love you always and forever!
Love always,
Stephanie (Princess #1)

Our deepest sympathies to the Nieves / Bordoy families.
Kelly was an outstanding person!
As neighbor to Susan , Stephanie and Michael for many years, Kelly was there helping his daughter and grandchildren with a project and friendly to everyone and so devoted to all his children. The love between Kelly and Zoraida was so evident and family was everything to them.
Kelly was a very wonderful man and he will be remembered always!
With our love and prayers,
Terry and Mike Creighton
and all the family

When I'm happy, you will be there smiling with me. When I'm sad or angry, you will be there with a hand on my shoulder. You will never leave me, because all I have to do is close my eyes and think of you and all the sweet and happy times we had together and as a family.
I love you my Dad. Thank you for everything. Thank you for your love and guidance.
Always, your Creature, your Rosie.

To My Papa,
Thank you for all of the wonderful memories; from our summer trips to PA when Steph and I were young to all the amazing family vacations as we got older. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to work alongside you, for teaching me all you know and for your wisdom. Thank you for the moments of laughter when we would do something silly. Thank you for your kindness and acceptance when I finally was able to accept my true self. Thank you for helping to shape me into the man I am today. Most of all thank you for the all encompassing love you had for this family. I will continue to make you proud, walk in your footsteps, and care for the family as you did.
~Love Always,
Your Boy (MJ)
“We had a wonderful grandfather,
One who never really grew old;
His smile was made of sunshine,
And his heart was solid gold;
His eyes were as bright as shining stars,
And in his cheeks fair roses you see.
We had a wonderful grandfather,
And that’s the way it will always be.
But take heed, because
He’s still keeping an eye on all of us,
So let’s make sure
He will like what he sees”

To my Daddy,
It’s hard for me to express myself so here is a poem to you;
“You held my hand my hand when I was small, you caught me when I fell. The hero of my childhood and latter years as well. Every time I think of you my heart fills with pride and though I will always miss you dad I know you’re by my side. In laughter and in sorrow, in sunshine and in rain I know you’re watching over me. Until we meet again my daddy.”
~Love Always,
Your Susie Q

Tio Kelly,
Thank you for all of the beautiful memories I have with you and the family. I remember all of my trips to the Country House filled with laughter, adventure, and many lessons. I always felt like I had so much to learn from you Tio; from how to fix things around the house, to how to be a loving man.
I love you so much.
You will always be remembered and our memories together will live on in my heart.

My heart is filled with beautiful memories of Kelly, and our families together sharing laughter during the holiday parties, and BBQ's. He was not only an uncle, but a father figure and mentor to me. He was a gentle soul, and passionate when it came to his family. His little girl Nicole, and his Lovey Zory. His beautiful daughters, Dee, Sue and Rosie. Let's not forget his loving grandkids, Stephanie and Michael James (his boy). He was so proud of his family, and you could see it. Now he will continue watching from above because heaven gained an angel, and we gained a guardian angel. Until we meet again, rest in peace Tío Kelly. Thank you for being a big part of my life, and loving us.
I love you, Millie Rivera
