My life is full having learned from you. What a wise, gentle and humble man you were. I will always treasure the stories you shared with me about growing up with my Mom. Now, you are reunited with her, Auntie Mamie and the rest of the familia.
The last thing you said to me, was not to cry, that you were going to be alright....and you are.
Thank you for all you've done for me, and thank you for sharing your wisdom with me.
Hu guaiya hao saina hu.

I have many fond memories of Pop from the time when I was a little girl until now. Along with his kindness and gentle soul, his cooking had always been a fond memory growing up. I'm very blessed that my son got to meet him and anybody who has crossed paths with Pop has certainly been better because of it. I will always remember how you and your family kept Chamorro traditions alive for all of us so that we don't forget our roots or where we came from. RIP Pop and many deep thoughts & prayers from the Chase-Aquino Family (Tracey, Amos, and Cameron)

Arlene and Family, Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of Pop. I call him Pop because I have made a connection with him through your postings on fb and following his hunting and fishing adventures and his love of the outdoors. His great taste in food is dear to my heart as well. I know he will be dearly missed, but I know you are all at peace knowing he is sitting with our Father in Heaven planning his next adventure. Love to you all and a special hug to you Arlene!
