CHAVEZ -- JIMMIE (CHEMILO) It doesn't seem like it's been two years. It feels like yesterday we were all sitting at the table laughing, remembering all the good times, and getting through the bad times. Some things will never be the same without you in our lives. I see you in my dreams, I feel you beside me when things are not going so good, a song on the radio still makes me cry and it always will. We love you and miss you, It's sad that you are not here to see your first great-grandchild, the first boy. We love you and will always miss you, you are the best Dad, Punky, Grandpa, Husband. No one will ever compare to the most wonderful man we will ever know. LOVE YOU
