I don't even know where to begin.. I can't believe that you are gone but I know that you are in a better place now . I know most of the time I was upset with you but that has all changed, to know that you had took my mom out to lunch one last time as sick as you were and that melted my heart. It made me realize how much of a loving a man you are! Also , my mom had been asking you to spray the house and you never got around to it until the night before your passing. How I dearly respect you that you made it ur priority to do one last chore for my mom. ❤❤❤ I miss you dad and I love you!!! Can't wait to see you in the new paradise. Love Your daughter, Eileen

Our deepest condolences to my sister Maria and all her family. To Mrs. Carmen Ibarra and all her family as well. The first time I saw n heard Chino was in Spanish class at Foothill High. You were making us laugh as usual. I thought to myself," man thus guy is loud but he is funny". With your boisterous personality you had a big heart to match. Never crossed my mind that you would end up being my cuñado, small world. LOL. You and Maria weathered forty years of marriage, what a blessing. We hope you knew we LOVED you. You will be dearly missed by all of us. Until we meet up again brother, RIP.

It kills me to know that u aren't here anymore grandpa. I will always cherish every moment that I got to see u and spend time with you. Even though it was hard sometimes to talk and comprehend with you, you still made us grandkids sting people who we are today with all the yelling you did lol. But it kills me more that you aren't here because right before this happened I was there with you taking you to your appointments always getting you out of bed and helping you into and out of my little car that u called aeronautical.. You told me that you loved us grandkids and that you loved your kids and want what's best for us and want all of us to be happy in life. There were some days that I would get a call from you to take you to the Dr and some days that you didn't want to go cause you were too tired but still went anyways Bc you really wanted to get that surgery and so you could be better. You wanted to move back to the Trent house so bad and kept trying to persuade me to get the bigger master bedroom.... Yes, it's going to be hard for us to get through this without you here and not hearing grandmas fone always going off because you always wanted her home and wanted to know who she was with and where she was But we love you grandpa and will miss you ... See you in the new paradise earth

Maria Ibarra

To my high school sweetheart, we made it through forty years of marriage, through thick and thin. You gave me two beautiful children which resulted in seven grandchildren and a great grandchild that you desperately wished to meet. However, in the paradise earth we will all be reunited and be able to see you in good health. I will dearly miss you blowing up my phone and going to eat Rice Bowl with you. 'Till we meet again Gordo. Love always, your loving wife, Maria.
