Florentino Guzman Obituary

The sun rose on May 15th 1972 and set on Dec. 12, 2012. Floyd was a loving and devoted father, son, brother and uncle who passed with his family by his side. He leaves behind his children, Melissa and Florentino, his mother Linda, dad Joe Ornelas and fiancee Eliza Mestas, brothers Carlos Guzman, Arthur Charron and sisters Yolanda and Andrea Guzman. May God and his father watch over him in heaven until we all meet again.

"Pretty Boy". I know your grinning up there. I remember when we all rolled to Denver in our rides for Cinco De Mayo I think right after he got out the Marine's. He had that mini truck and was bumpin Magic Mike, there were about 4 or 5 car loads of us. Those were good times, I won't forget, GOOD STUFF!! My condolences to the family, I hope for the best.

Dear family, we will never understand why wonderful loved ones are called Home to be with the Lord when so young . God must have needed Floyd more than his family.

May God's love be with you all in your grief. My deepest sympathy.,
