Roberto migrated to the United States in his teens and learned the trade of Masonry. His craftsmanship gave him the ability to build his company. He taught three generations the skill, and eye for design, giving them the ability to be providers for their families. Roberto exemplified the same work ethic, as a dedicated provider for his family and servant of Christ.
Roberto accepted his Savior in 1957 and his acceptance led to his ministry. In 1969 he helped pioneer and expand the Spanish Church of God. In 1979 he co-founded Munger Place Church of God alongside his wife Epifania Palomo-Medina and Reverend Vessie D. Hargrave where many souls accepted Christ and others were mentored as Pastors, Missionaries, disciples and leaders. He continued to serve as a minister and mentor through the duration of his life. He leaves a Legacy of humility, faithfulness to Christ and his Family.
He will be remembered for his strong work ethic, loyal husband, tender father, respected brother, caring pastor, and diligent provider.
