Querido Pai, words cannot describe the sadness I feel right now. You have left a legacy that will last forever in your Children and Grandchildren. You were taken from us too soon Pai. I will never be able to tell you vocally how much I love you Pai but I know that you felt us there with you every step of the way throughout this difficult month. You fought so hard Daddy and I know that you did it for us and for Mommy! You will be forever missed but never forgotten Daddy. You were an amazing Father who wanted nothing but the absolute BEST for his kids. Thank you for being the world's greatest Grandpa, you gave Kylie and Tyler such wonderful memories and the world's best guizado, they will miss their buddy. . I appreciate everything you did for us Pai; how hard you worked all of your life to provide for us, leaving the familiar and coming to a country that was so foreign, all to give your Children a better life in a land of opportunity.... I know how proud you are of all of us and I know that I speak for Tony, Joe, Nellie, Luisa and David when I say how proud WE are to have you, Mr. Vicente as our Father. Love you Pai! XOXOXO

Maria Da Gloria e familia,
Os meus sinceros pesamos da morte do teu marido. Deus te deia forcas para enfrantares estes dias defices e a falta que vais sentir. Rezo que os teus filhos e netos ajundate e que a memoria de dias felizes com o primo Antonio lhes tragao conforto.

Rissa,
My dearest and deepest condolences go out to you and the whole family with the passing of your father. Both of our fathers were great men who worked so hard to better the lives of their families and to give us all that we have today, and for that we are thankful. We have both been so privileged to have been blessed with such loving and caring role models. Hugs and kisses to you and the whole family, especially your mum. I hope you're healing in the best way possible.
...just think, with a glass of portuguese wine in hand, they both get to watch us live out the rest of our lives knowing that we are who we are today because of them.
Lots of love,
Rissa O
