Popo,

We miss you so much. Brian and I have given you two more baby boys. Preston Brian and Payton Isaac Figueroa. I know you would just love Preston he is something else. He is a handful. He loves being outside and boy o boy does he just love the horses. Payton is a small verse of Isaiah and everyone says he looks just like Paul but lighter.....don't let Paul hear me say this because he will say he is not dark he is caramel color. Our big boy Phillip still crys for you. We can be driving down any road and I can hear him crying softly. I look back and he will be looking up at the sky and tears running down his face. He says, "I miss my popo so much." I so wish you could be here to see him play ball....Brian says he is way better than he was at his age. Virgie is really trying to keep busy. I know this is just killing her but she is really trying to stay strong and not show it. She goes home to an empty bed but no matter what we do for her things will never change you will never come back home. Brian has really stepped up to the plate and has totally token over the horses. They get out and he will chase them around by himself to put them back in. I feel bad for him at times but then I remember no one use to help you so Im sure he will manage. I ask that you please watch over all of us and please guide us in the right direction in life. At time life gets so hard and I just want to give up on everything but I just dust myself off and move on. Brian really is taking your loss hard. He so wishes you could come back. He feels lonely. He doesn't really hang out with anyone. He hardly sees his brothers. Just please Popo keep us out of harms way and until we meet up again I love you and miss you so much. You were a one of a kind man. I still till this day ain't meet anyone like you. Thanks for all you did for Brian and I. You know Brian got a sharp sharp pain that dropped him to his knees in his stomach at about the same time that you had your accident. He knew something was up. We were hanging out with some friends and he fell to his knees and said he had a bad stomach crap. It is so crazy how life works......He says because he was in his bad roll over accident that you must have prayed and prayed for your son to please recover and promised to give your life instead. Whatever it was that happened we love you and miss you.




Doris, thank you for emailing me the obituary of your brother.  My heart hurts for your pain, the loss of your sibling.  I wish I could be there to hold your hand, but I know that JESUS is there with you and your family.  And, now, Pete, is right next to HIM watching over all his family.  PRAISE JESUS!    May God blessings be with all of you,    Jany



My Dear Brother,    I miss you so much.



My deepest sympathy to Virgie and all her beautiful family. I am Virginias high school friend. My prayers to you that Jehovah God may strengthen you day to day until you see him again.  Revelation21:4 the Bible reads one day, no more tears or pain or sorrow," Tommorow   love Janie



Still Missing You !!!!!           So Much Brother !!!



Sorry for your loss of your loved one.He was a good man and he  will be missed.



Our thoughts and prayes go out to the Figueroa family.



God Knows    You have my deepest sympathy,  but it really doesn't help.  Your grief goes beyond  what words can express.    There's nothing anyone can say,  and nothing we can do  to heal your broken heart  or take away your pain.    Let God take you in His arms  and cover you with His love.  He knows the depth of your grief  and only He can give you peace.  He knows it will take time  for your heart to heal, and  your loved one has a place  that no one else can fill.    If there's any comfort let it be in this,  your loved one is with Jesus,  in a home that's filled with bliss.  There are no tears in Heaven,  no more heartache and no pain,  only love and happiness  for all eternity.    We must go on living and  do the best we can,  then when Jesus calls our name  we will be with them again. ^j^



Remember Me by Pete Figueroa To the living, I am gone. To the sorrowful, I will never return. To the angry, I was cheated. But to the happy, I am at peace. And to the faithful, I have never left. I cannot speak, but I can listen. I cannot be seen but I can be heard. So as you stand upon a shore, Gazing at the beautiful sea-- Remember me. As you look in awe at a mighty Forest and its grand majesty--Remember me. Remember me in your heart, your Thoughts and your memories-- Of the times we cried, the times we loved, And the times we laughed. For if you always think of me, I will never have gone. Love and miss you always,



My Dear Brother,  Today you've been gone two years, We miss you so much its not the same without you .  Virgie misses you so much and she being very strong.  There no words that will comfort our emptiness in our heart because a part of us is gone till we meet again with all our love .                    your family



We little knew that day.  God was going to call your name.  In life we loved you dearly.  In death, we do the same.  It broke our hearts to lose you.  You did not go alone.  For part of us went with you.  The day God called you home.  You left us beautiful memories,  Your love is still our guide.  And though we cannot see you.  You are always at our side.  Our family chain is broken.  And nothing seems the same.  But as God calls us one by one.  The chain will link again.



Brother,   The holidays are not the same, we miss you another year begins keep watching over us until we meet again we love you and miss you so much. Virgie is being so strong I know deep inside she is hurting. So watch over her and give her strength.   Love you



TO OUR DEAREST BROTHER     HERE WE SIT AT HOME . ONE YEAR AGO YOU LEFT TO BE WITH OUR LORD.  EVERYDAY  WE LONG TO SEE YOUR FACE OR  HEAR YOUR VOICE . OUR HEARTS ARE VERY SAD  FOR DAYS AND TIMES WE PRETEND TO BE HAPPY BUT DEEP INSIDE WE LOST PART OF US , THE PAIN IN OUR HEARTS WILL NOT STOP . EVERY NITE WE PRAY NOT TO REMEBER THAT AWFUL NITE .  BUT WE KNOW THAT YOU ARE NO LONGER HERE. WE KNOW NOW THAT LIFE IS PRECIOUS . WE WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU SO MUCH UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN .                                                   LOVE YOUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS.



This month will be a year that you went home to the  Lord .  We have missed you so much !!!  Virgie is beginning to miss you more more.  She says she is realizing your not coming back, It has been so hard for her I pray and ask the Lord to give us strength to go on everyday .  We love you and miss you more and more.                       Love You Your Sis.



My Dearest Brother,   Today is month that the Lord called you, And left us here at ranch, it not the same we all miss you, seeing your face or watching you walk down the eastman and Virgie by your side going to feed your horses and pigs with your bucket in you hand.  It is so hard , we all feel the lonliness.   We miss your crazy jokes and your smile. My Dear Brother Arnold planted you a tree in your memory and Virgie waters it every day. It is a nice tree it is about 10 ft high. We miss you and love you .



My Dearest Brother,   It's been two weeks and we miss you so much, I know you are with Mom and Dad.  Yesterday, Friday was when we all meet at the end of the week and stop and talk , it was so hard not to see you there. Oh My God please help us to understand, I know we're not supposed to ask why but it is so hard.  My dearest Brother I love you and miss you soooooo much.             Love your sis,



My deepest sympathies go out to your entire family.  Pete was such a nice man, a great dad, a hard worker, and  positive member of the community.  I will never forget him as our little league baseball coach or as a host at his home.  He was always so iniviting, positive, and funny.  He will be missed.  My thoughts are with all of you.



I read this at my own father's services years ago. I believe that Pete is telling us this as he stands at the feet or our Lord and Savior....  Please dont sing sad songs for me,  forget your grief and fears,   For I am in a perfect place away from pain and tears.  Im far away from hunger, hurt,   want, and pride,  I have a place in heaven with the Lord at my side.  My life on earth was very good  as earthly lifes can go,  But Paradise is so much more   than anyone can know..  My soul is filled with happiness  and sweet rejoicing too  To walk with God is perfect peace  a joy forever new.  In another world well meet one day  Ill be waiting with God,  To show you the way.



I am so sorry for your loss, Peter was a great man who we all looked up to.  Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.



To the Figueroa family    My deepest sympathy to you all. You will be in my prayers.

My brother I will dearly miss everyday, when I look out my bedroom window because he was always there in his garage doing something pidiling here and there or walking down the eastman feeding and watering his horses and when he see me he would he always had something funny to say and make me laugh, I will miss driving in and he would wave and I would stop just to hear his funny jokes. Peter my brother was good husband and father, he loved Virgie very much there's not anything he wouldn't do for her and their boys. We spent 4th of July together in Louisiana, we had a wonderful time. I will miss him soooo much I know he is with Mom and Dad now. Virgie, we have become closer , maybe the Lord was preparing us for this and you are welcome to my house any time don't hesitate I don't want you to be lonley, because this is what my brother would want for us to watch over each other so anytime no matter what time it is I will be there for you. Boys, you guys were loved very much by your Dad and I know he will still around for us and watch over us, the main thing is that you take good care of your Mother. cause she will need you guys more than ever. I love ya'll very much. Peter, I know Dad will have a wonderful Birthday and let him know we all wish him a Happy Birthday!              Love ya'll Doris



Coming to visit my mom will never be the same. Before I walked in the back door, I always would look over to my left and know I would see Uncle Peter outside messing around with something, smiling and waving..I will miss his jokes and laughter the most and watching him walk down the eastman....



My Grandma Doris loved Uncle Peter so much...I will always remember how you ride horses, Uncle Peter was my friend, I promise to take him flowers and feed the horses when I come to visit...may God bless your family - amen I love you Uncle Peter

What can I say about Pete that has not already been said...he was my friend and co-worker and go-to guy whenever I needed help re-building whatever department I was in at the time.  As usual, when he was finished with a project, he always seemed to leave a tool or two behind.  Eventually, he would wander back up to the office and re-trace his steps until he found what he was missing.  I will miss joking with him and giving him a "heads up" when his ponytail was coming out from under his cap.  I feel lucky and blessed to have known such a wonderful person.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.



My thoughts and prayers go out to all of the Figueroa family...    Raine Ratcliff~Escobedo

Peter too was blessed with a large family, full of beautiful grandchildren to carry on the family line, wonderful sons and a loving wife.  We should all be thankful that God gave him to our family and not any other.  He has left many beautiful memories that shall never be forgotten.
