Journal entry by Iris Peltier —
On August 19th, 2018, Roberto Rivera, quietly passed away. He was surrounded by he's eldest daughter and granddaughter. He is no longer struggling to breathe. He is at peace. We held a celebration of life service, and are planning an ashes ceremony, to take place in Puerto Rico the weekend following his birthday, in April 2019. Special thanks to my cousin Marcelino Hernandez, for guiding me thru this process and heading the ceremony. Also, Jerry Schuch, for sharing bits of the long friendship he shared with my dad. Heading back to my reality and dreading the moment when I feel the need to share something with my dad and I just can't call him. This will be the longest football season, without my dad to debate with at halftime. Miss you, Dad. GO PACK GO!!!
