TAFOYA -- Tommy In memory of Tommy Tafoya July 22, 1940 - September 11, 1992 First things first: Sorry we forgot to go to the cemetery on Father's Day. I guess you were upset but we got the message loud and clear when you sent a big colorful balloon that said "Happy Fathers Day Dad" hovering over the pond in the back yard. It's the first and only time we ever missed but we made up for it on your birthday. Tom and Charlotte celebrated 17 years of marriage last weekend. Tomas is a sophomore at St. Pius and loves it. He's a very good student and he's still dancing and doing well. He made his conformation last May with the Archbishop. This year he has a broken arm. (Last year it was Tatiana. Hopefully next year we won't have to report anyone has a broken bone!) Tatiana is in 8th grade at St. Charles and is still dancing her hips off. She's also a good student and her teachers always enjoy having her in their class. Lucretia just got a new job at UNM and is very happy about it. Her children (the dogs) have adjusted to being here and being outside. They even catch an occasional bird which upsets their mother and makes me laugh. Nep and family are doing good. Evangelee is in 5th grade and playing volleyball for her school. Samantha is very happy about being a big kid in first grade. Fred is two and 1/2 and loves to watch football and play outside. Mary Trinnie and Gerald will celebrate 14 years of marriage September 28. Gerald Paul is 11 and still playing football. They're undefeated again. He had a busy summer playing basketball. He's a good student at Queen of Heaven. Tommy Andres is already four and goes to preschool at St. Luke's with Mr. Jay and Ms. Judy. He's playing soccer and has his first game on Saturday. Mom is doing good too for 85. Tommy Andres and Gerald Paul call her Great Daisy. She gets a kick out of that. Dr. Vigil says she needs to exercise to make it past 90. Dodo, David, Marty and I went to the Vigil-Tafoya family reunion in July. It was fun. I'm going to Jamaica on our wedding anniversary, October 20. I can't believe we would have been married 48 years. Kevin is getting married so I'm going with Carol. We all love and miss you every day. Mass in your memory is being said today at 5:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Assumption on Lomas and Tennessee. Love your wife, Vivian; your children, Tom and Charlotte, Lucretia, Nep, Mary Trinnie and Gerald; your grandchildren, Tomas and Tatiana, Gerald Paul and Tommy Andres, Evangelee and Samantha and Fred.
