Some of our memories of our dear dad Rafael are that he always knew how to make us laugh. He was always willing to give you his pocket change when the ice cream man would come by. He loved going to the casinos. We could never win him at a running race. He loved the outdoors, especially gardening and taking long walks. He also loved listening to music and to sing out loud. He loved to prank us and even embarrass us sometimes, and he would be laughing at what he did. Instead of vamonos he would say "Follow me the good ones, "to the Fuimonos." “He liked to say “Who loves you so much?” or “See the T. V., but don't turn it on,” when we would ask if we could watch T.V. His favorite line on the way to TJ or back was, Mother, if you want me to come with happiness, stop at the bathroom. "
Rafael’s greatest joy was his family and his abundant garden of flowers, and fruit trees. If a plant was dead he could revive it. He loved the beach and long walks. His smile was contagious. He was a man of great character. We are blessed for the beautiful time God gave us with him. To know him was to love him. His kind heartedness and good sense of humor will stay with us always. He will be remembered always and deeply missed.

Algunos de nuestros recuerdos de nuestro querido Padre Rafael son que siempre supo hacernos reír. Él siempre estaba dispuesto a darle su cambio de bolsillo cuando el hombre de helado vendría. Le encantaba ir a los casinos. Nunca podríamos ganarle en una carrera. Le encantaba el aire libre, especialmente la jardinería y dar largos paseos. También le encantaba escuchar música y cantar en voz alta. Le encantaba bromearnos e incluso avergonzarnos a veces, y se estaba riendo de lo que hizo. En lugar de vamonos diría "siganme los buenos", "A los fuimonos." ¿Le gustaba decir "quién te quiere tanto?" o "vean la T.V., pero no la prendan", cuando nos preguntaría si podíamos ver la T.V. Su línea favorita en el camino a TJ o de vuelta fue, "comadre, si quiere que llegue con felicidad, pare al baño."
La mayor alegría de Rafael fue su familia y su abundante jardín de flores, y árboles frutales. Si una planta estaba muerta podría revivirla. Le encantaba la playa y los largos paseos. Su sonrisa era contagiosa. Era un hombre de gran carácter. Somos bendecidos por el tiempo hermoso que Dios nos dio con él. Conocerlo era amarlo. Su amable corazón y buen sentido del humor se quedarán siempre con nosotros. Será recordado siempre y profundamente perdido.
