So sorry for your loss. A bright light now shines in heaven. Peace and comfort to family.

I fell in love with you, Gus. I mean no disrespect to Hazel, but I’m in love with you and would do anything to have you alive again.

Leo Calpito Pacquing November 18, 1948 - November 26, 2018 I was blessed by Leo in so many ways. He was someone that exhibited the traits of a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ. He wanted his friends and family to truly know the Lord Jesus Christ personally. Leo shared with me some of the mistakes and struggles he had in His life, but was humble and knew that He needed the Lord Jesus to forgive, heal, and cleanse. Leo helped support mission trips I have been on in reaching remote villages in Papua Indonesia with the Gospel and through his prayer and financial stewardship helped bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ into many villages who had not known of the Love of Jesus Christ. Nearly two years ago, I observed Leo sharing his faith In Jesus when He was struggling with his health. Even while struggling to gasp for air he still was able to tell the nurses about his love for Jesus. Leo was such a good example for me to imitate. Leo expressed to me repeatedly that his heart is for his family to trust in Jesus alone. He believed that the Lord could change their heart and forgive their sins as they give up following their own ways and trust completely in Jesus. He really wanted everyone to know Jesus as he himself knows Jesus...One of his favorite songs that he shared with me was the old - Battle Hymn of the Republic: Mine eyes have seen the glory Of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage Where the grapes of wrath are stored; He hath loosed the fateful lightning Of His terrible swift sword; His truth is marching on. I have seen Him in the watchfires Of a hundred circling camps They have builded Him an altar In the evening dews and damps; I can read His righteous sentence By the dim and flaring lamps; His day is marching on. He has sounded forth the trumpet That shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of men Before His judgement seat; Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him; Be jubilant, my feet; Our God is marching on. In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in His bosom That transfigures you and me; As He died to make men holy, Let us die to make men free; While God is marching on. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life - John 3:16. Leo often talked of having a campfire with other brothers and singing kum-ba-yah. I loved His heart to Worship the Lord Jesus.

I'm still lost with the thought of knowing that my youngest son is no longer with us for 3 years now. I wish for everything in this world to have just one more day with you. Love Forever, Willis

So very sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. In times of this nature, all of us need encouragement and comfort, how we appreciate those who lovingly offer it! Comforting implies taking time to listen, understand, and help. I pray that you find that with your ‘family and friends’ as well as the promises of Jesus at Luke 23:43 where he said: “Truly I tell you today, you will be with me in Paradise.”
