Remember our dear "Pompo" and the wonderful man he was. Remember his sweetheart "Tita" and her warm and loving hugs. always cooking wonders and watching the 10 o'clock news, while she would read her Bible and tell him what to do. We miss our Father, Grandpa, Great-Granpa and friend, but happiness fills us because we know it's not the end. For not only do we remember your voice, your smell, your face, but we remember all the memories with you, and look forward to our reunion someday. We love and miss you very much. (Poetry by Sophia Monique Lovato).
The Rivera family requests that you join us to celebrate the life of Felix "Pompo" Rivera on Friday, May 7th at Cristo Rey Church in Santa Fe at 10:30 a.m.To be immediately followed at the Nat'l Cemetery by a Full Military Honor Guard Ceremony, including 21-Gun Salute and Folding of Colors. The Nat'l Cemetery is where "Tita's" remains are buried. This will be followed by a Barbeque at Monsignor Patrick Smith Park (Canyon Road Park) on East Alameda Street. On behalf of the Rivera Family we thank you all for your thoughts and prayers--Billy Rivera

Uncle Felix,
I don't know if I ever told you how much I loved you and how much of an impact that you had on my life. Growing up in the old neighborhood our family had many good times and many tough times and I remember both clearly, and now, fondly. As a child I remember the demons that you faced, the same as my dad and watching you overcome all obstacles and become the man you did was always an inspiration. Your incredible strength and your devotion to Tita really shows us what true love is about. The way you loved all of your family even to your last day is amazing. You will be missed more than you could ever know. I know that you and Aunt Mable are back where you belong, together in paradise. My only hope is that here and now the family can forget all trivial misunderstandings and come together in the image of your life and the examples you have set for us. Our love for each other should be our gift for you and Tita and the greatest way of honoring your memory. Go with God Uncle Felix, I love you. Justo

Felix and Mabel are dear to my heart and they always will be. I did not know that Mabel had passed until much later. Felix taught me how to make red chile--the right way and it has been great ever since. The Rivera's children are also dear to my heart and I will always love them. God be with each of you, now, and always.
