Godofredo treated me like family. He always had food to offer when I visited his house. My favorite dish that he made was his adobo. On some of my visits when he would see me he would tell me I will make you my adobo. He would make it and send it to me with Jocelyn. I was always so excited to get his adobo. I will miss him, his adobo, but more than that is how he made me feel like family. 🙏🏻💕

I will never forget all those moments & times when I was with Tito Gods. From our trip to the Philippines, to driving him & the others to the casinos, & our special conversations. I also can remember many times when I was sick he would cook me my favorite soup or porridge or even share his food with no occassion. I've known Tito Gods as the funny man, loving father, humble, caring, very smart, lends a hand to many people specially to those in need. My brother Jor & I look up to you as a father. Words are not enough how to describe his goodness & love. We will trully miss you & your smile Tito Gods! Rest in peace now. Know that the family will always be here for Tita Joan, Obet, Ray, Joce, & Rodney. We love you very much & thank you for everything. From: Janice & The Numeron Family
