Obituary for Cristobal Acosta
My father Cristobal Acosta passed away on Tuesday January 17, 2023. He was 72 years old, born and raised in Ecuadorian, moved to the U.S at a young age. He has a son Ariel, grandchild Abigail, and me his daughter Vanessa. He was an independent strong man with a strong personality. My dad was very caring, loving, giving and always good to everyone. He was and always be an amazing father.
My father was strict and protective with his kids. I have a lot of memories with my dad. I remember as a child he would come home after work and my brother, and I would greet him at the door as soon as he came in and he would have some type of snack for us. When the weather was nice, he took us outside to ride our bikes or go to the park. Another memory I remember he had a stereo system with these two big speakers and every weekend he would turn on the radio or play a cassette tape or play a vinyl disc on his record player. While he listened to his music, he would clean, and organize our home. He was very tidy and took care of himself.
My father was not only great with his kids he was great with his granddaughter. He was there for her from day one. He was the best father figure she could ever have. He did everything for her. He adores her and is the light of his eyes. They spend almost every day together. He did the same with her as he did with me as a child, he taught her how to ride a bike, and took her to the park so she could play. Whether I asked him or not he was there for us. I'm happy my daughter got to spend time and enjoy her grandfather and have her own memories with him.
My father was a great family man, he was a good son to his mother, a good son to his father, good to his sisters, and good to his brothers. My father knew my mother and her side of the family since they were kids and even though they haven't been together for many years they were his family and were good to them too. When it came to his work, he was a very hard worker and a good co-worker.
His passing was very tragic, I was by his side when he passed and I will always have that memory, but I know now he is at peace in heaven looking over all of us and that my daughter has her own guardian angel, her grandfather. I know he would want us to live on and continue our day-to-day lives, be happy, kind, and when we think about him not feel sadness but feel happiness. It will take some time to heal from this but like my father I will be strong.
What I want to say to my father is thank you for all you have done. You did raise us well and I will do the same for Abby. We are just like you, we have your strong personality. So don't worry about us, we got each other's back. Your son, grandchild, and I will miss you, and we love you with all our hearts. Rest in peace Papi.
