"Oh! that beautiful city, with its mansions of light, With its glorified beings, in pure garments of white; Where no evil thing cometh to despoil what is fair; Where the angels are watching, yes, my name, Ivan Rosado, is written there. May God bless Mr. Rosado as he takes his eternal residence in his mansion. Love and hugs to all his loved ones. "

"Thanking God each & everyday for blessing me with the best of the best as my Papi! I had the privilege of having my dad move in with me & taking care of him in the last 4 years of his life & made sure that his care in my home were as joyous as the beginning of his life! Each & every morning when I served him his breakfast, he always gave me a kiss & most importantly his blessing to me, my children & grandchildren which We will always cherish! When I picked up my grandchildren from school, he would welcome them with a high-five & a fist bump which he enjoyed more than the kids!!. I will miss him so much but I know that he is in a better place where there is no suffering or pain! I know that he is absent from the body & present with our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ! "
