My father...

My father, Ceferino Edra Jr., passed away this morning March 1st 2009 at 12:30am.

He fought a long hard battle against cancer and finally was relieved of his burden. I'm sorry if I change the overall flow of the exclusive hidden board but I feel I should vent a little bit on here because this forum means so much to me.

My dad himself was a huge boxing fan and his favorite fighters were Pacquiao (surprise, suprise), Hatton, Ali, Hagler, Tyson, and Holyfield. There were very few fights I watched without him by my side. Even though the entire time we disagreed on who won what round and whether the winner deserved the decision, or whether or not the punch landed or if it just glanced. Arguing or not, I enjoyed every fight moment with my dad.

Rest in Peace Dad...

Sorry to hear that mate.

Condolences to you and yours, Carlo.

I am so sorry for your loss C-lo. My dad is 83 and has had a few close calls as of late. When I lost my mom 4 years ago due to cancer, it left an emptiness in my heart that is still there every moment of every day.

You dad has exclusive ringside seats to all the big events now my friend. He will be there by your side until you see him again. Believe it.

RIP Ceferino Edra Jr

May you find peace and love in all he has left, the memories and the others left with you back here for this short time we all have here together.
Rip to your Dad.

Condolences to you and your family at this time C-Lo. God Bless.

Sorry to hear this C Lo, hope he had a good innnings and lived to a nice age, it sounds like his last few months were a struggle so at least now he has found rest.

Wish the best to you and your family.

Very sorry to hear for your loss, i hope he rests in piece.

I'm really sorry to hear about your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I'm sorry to hear that Clo. my prayers are with you and you family.

Thanks for the kind words everyone! It means a lot to me!

We always knew he was going to go at some point because his cancer was pretty bad. But he has no regrets, he lived his 47 years of life to the fullest.

Damn that's a young age to go, cruel when life takes someone away from you so early. I hope you have a strong family C Lo and can all pull together and support one another.

sorry to hear that man

Best wishes to you and yours CLO. My Dad wasnt much older than yours when he passed away. Miss him loads.

Ceferino named just like the great Ceferino Garcia.. Possibly because of him though I know it's a common name in the PIs just like in Mexico.

May his soul rest in peace.
Carlo my prayers will be with you guys tonight.

God bless and may time mend what life has done here.

I went through something similar almost two years ago C-Lo, though there was no illness involved. If you want to talk or anything, feel free to send me a PM.

Stay strong and best wishes.

Sorry to hear it bro.

Sorry to hear than C... I know its been a few weeks since, hope you are well

My he rest in peace.

I feel for you mate my thoughts are with you and your family.

I too lost my Dad to cancer when I was 20 (he was just 49) he went to get a lump in his throat looked at and got told he had three months to live, he managed to battle on to almost four months.

Keep your chin up mate I'll be thinking about you fella.

Have read and followed your posts on Facebook Carlo, your eulogy, pictures. You handle yourself well with such a difficult thing. Your dad seemed a very good man. And so do you. He would be proud.
