Right Eye Tear Drops: To My Friend Rhi...You will truly be missed.

Rhiannon Bahena (Kennedy)

May 17th, 1986 - September 2nd, 2011


I heard an interested saying a couple of days ago.  It goes something like this:


"When a tear drops from your right eye, 

it's because of something loving and heartwarming.


When a tear drops from your left eye,

it's because of something painful and heartbreaking."


It struck a cord with me because of you Rhi.  You were such a fun person to be around and took value in the small things in life, as well as the great things.  Throughout my life, I've kept my family close and only have a very small group of friends that I carry in my day to day life.  So someone please tell me why that every time I think of you, every time I was working on making my dedication video for you, a tear rolls down my left eye?  No matter how happy I am, how I carry each day, and keep your thought in my heart, and when I can gain a moment in the day to wind down from life's daily stresses, a tear rolls down my left eye?  You made my life this past year such an adventure.  And as much I gave you advice, and helped you through tough times in your life, you were really the one teaching me.  And it sucks because I didn't realize it till now.



“Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.”


It's because of the compassion we shared as friends to help each other through hard times and to make memories with during the good ones.  I am not just honored but also truly blessed to have you come into my life.  You always smirked at me whenever I gave you 20 questions about a guy you liked, and many times have called me an "Over Protective Big Brother".  I laughed at the fact that you tried to hook me up with any friends you thought would like me.  I never asked any of that from you, but you did it, because you felt it in your heart to look after me that way.  You have been such a good friend to me when no one else was around.  And I will always be grateful for that.  I remember going with you and your kids to the Pumpkin Patch, it was one of the funniest times I had with you.  I was hoping to do that again this year, but it looks like that time will never come.  But I promise that I will do all that God will allow me, to make sure they have what they need.  I owe that to you.  I loved the fact that you were always up front and blunt.  Those are qualities most people claim to have, but really lack.  Not you, you were definitely someone special.  I will never want to admit that your gone.  So I'll be like you'll be gone for awhile.  And I'll see you again.  And maybe I'll get my right eye to tear when I think of you again.  


                                                                      Love, 

                                                                           Saúl Acevedo

Family Blessings - May God Bless My Uncle Nelson



There are no great words that come to my mind to properly express the sorrow that I feel right now.  When I feel this way sometimes I turn here to my own personal space in the world.  However, I do know that you were a good man, you raised a great family who I know is close to each other and holds each other dear.  I'm glad that you were able to say what was on your heart the most in your final hours.  I know that my Mom will be there for Aunt Terry, and that she will be cared for.  I can remember way back in the day when I was a little runt how you and my Dad would sit back and share a good story on a many summer days and nights.  Being here in IL and knowing what's going on back in PR makes me want to be there again. I miss my Aunt and hope that, with her brother and sisters, that she can find the strength to make it to a better day. I urge all of you that read this, to know that you can never tell someone that you love them enough. Take the time to tell your wife, husband, kids that you love them, always. I know I will. I'll never know how much time I'll have on this planet but I do know that from the mistakes I've made as a person, I take everyday to do better and be a better person. God Bless you for reading and give an extra strong hug for me.
