Rosalind "Rose" Louise Lee

6/30/2017

 
Picture
Rosalind "Rose" Louise Lee, age 74, of Pensacola, Florida passed away on Friday, June 30, 2017.

She was preceded in death by her father, Joseph Rose; her mother, Margaret Lee; brothers, Joseph Rose, Terry Rose, Ronnie Rose and Clifford Rose and sister, Jeannie Rose Moore.
 
She is survived by her daughters, Susan Martin of Tampa, Florida, Mary (Ray) McDuffie, New Ulm, Tx; sons, Harold Clifford Goodwin, Pensacola, Florida, Eugene (Tonia) David Goodwin, Pensacola, Fl; nine grandchildren, six great-grandchildren; brother, David (Judy) Rose; sisters, Mary Jane (Larry) Pitts and Pat (Darryl) Brown.

Our mother went home to be with the Lord and the rest of her family.  I found a prayer she had written in her journal asking the Lord to "see what you can do".  In her prayer, she talked to him about missing her family.

My mother was strong in her faith and I always admired her for that.  She loved everyone and she loved giving gifts and making everyone smile.  Since her illness, everything I touch or see reminds me of her.  In all her pictures, she always had the biggest smile or funny face.  She had a trying life, but because of her faith, she was happy and had no fear and lived life to the fullest.  She loved Americas Funniest Home Videos and would laugh so hard, we all cried with her.  She would get so upset at the bad guys in movies.  It was so funny to watch her.

She loved working with her hands making crafts for everyone or helping chop or put up vegetables.  She loved poetry, reading and writing.  She was so precious and everyone loved her.  She loved children and they were drawn to her.  In her last days, she managed to make faces at them to make them laugh.   She was so determined and such a fighter.  I found several pictures of Angels cut out of magazines and filed away.  I found this in other clippings she saved:

               "I'll Be There"
When the days wane long and dreary
And the nights are longer still
Trust I'm watching over you -
And I always will.
Sonnets of Love are sweet refrain
But none can ever compare
To simple vows from the heart -
I promise I'll be there.
I am your guardian angel.
Love Mom

She will always be in our hearts and her precious memories will be with us forever.  I know she's at peace now.

A Memorial Service will be held at 2:00pm, Friday, July 7, 2017 at Central Chapel Church, Pensacola, Florida.
 
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Central Chapel Church, 405 Beverly Parkway, Pensacola, Florida 32505.

Michael Omar Portillo

6/29/2017

 
Picture
Michael Omar Portillo, age 26, died unexpectedly on June 29, 2017 from injuries sustained in a car accident.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents.
​
Mike sadly leaves behind the love of his life, his wife, Alexa; his parents, Omar & Liliana Portillo; brother, Christopher Portillo and parents-in-law, Kevin & Margaret Dubois and a host of uncles, aunts and cousins. 
 
Mike was born in Miami, Florida on June 26, 1991.  At the age of 13, the Portillo family relocated to the Panhandle of Northwest Florida.  Mike is a graduate of Gulf Breeze High School, Class of 2009.  Upon graduation, Mike pursued an early career off shore spending five years as an able-bodied seaman.
 
Mike was a devoted husband, son, brother, son-in-law and friend.  Mike valued his family with utmost importance and believed they should always come first.  While working offshore, Mike’s heart could not bare the time spent away from his love, Alexa.  Soon after their engagement in 2015, Mike chose to find permanent employment in Pensacola, allowing him to spend each day forward, living life with Alexa.  The couple recently celebrated their first wedding anniversary, creating life long memories while traveling aboard a cruise ship.
 
Mike worked hard at every task he pursued.  When Mike made the decision to find work in Pensacola, he quickly earned his CDL license as an employee at the Lewis Bear Co. later working as a distributor at Ben E. Keith.  Mike was also a valuable member of the cook team at Cordova Crawfish Co. where he could be seen working countless hours, always wearing a smile.
 
In his spare time, Mike enjoyed his hobby as a self-taught carpenter.  Mike and Alexa loved working together on projects, where Mike would build whatever Alexa designed.  The collaborated hobby resembled how the duo lived life. The two would effortlessly find ways to relish spending time together.
 
Their home is a reflection of the joyous time spent together.  From handcrafted furniture pieces, to wall hangings, to the numerous photos of the couple scattered about table tops and walls.  As you enter the home, the warmth of love and affection is present and can be felt heavy in the air.  Just over one week prior to Mike’s untimely death,  Alexa posted a picture to one of her social media accounts.  The image, which portrayed the couples most recent woodworking project, where Alexa would credit Mike by saying, “I really doubt my husband envisioned all the home projects that would be in his future when he married me, but I’m so thankful.  He’s always up for whatever DIY mayhem I have up my sleeve.  I’m so appreciative he makes all my visions come to life, another job well done, babe”.
 
Thank you to everyone who has reached out during this tragic time for our family.  Your love and support is greatly appreciated.  The loss of Mike will leave an irreplaceable void in our lives.  Although a life taken from us way to soon, we are forever grateful to have been part of his journey while here on earth.
 
We love you Mike, and you will never be forgotten.
Love, Portillo and Dubois Families
 
Visitation will be held at 11:00-1:00pm on Thursday, July 6, 2017 with service at 1:00pm at Gulf Breeze United Methodist Church, 75 Fairpoint Drive, Gulf Breeze, Florida 32561.

Roy C McIntyre II
April 25, 1955- June 20, 2017

Pensacola, FL-- Roy C McIntyre II, passed away Monday, June 20, 2017 at Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola.  

He leaves his loving wife of 25 years, Joanne (Frank) McIntyre; his three beautiful children, Michael (Gloria Torres) McIntyre, Katrina (Matthew) Smith, and Karyn (Alex Short and children) McIntyre; his mother, Patricia (Sheldon) McIntyre; his sister Bonnie (Richard) Houtz; many close friends; and his faithful cocker spaniel, Buddy. He is preceded in death by his father, Roy McIntyre I.

Born in Mineola, New York, the son of Roy and Patricia McIntyre, Roy was raised in Oil City, then raised his own family in Beaver, Pennsylvania. Roy attended Penn State University. He never missed a Nittany Lions or Steelers game. While he was a very caring man, he did have his selfish moments when he filled up the DVR with NASCAR and college football. He and his wife recently retired to Pensacola where they have been enjoying the sunshine, beaches, tornado warnings, and watching the Blue Angels fly for the past 2 years.

Through his life, he always left his light on for family and friends to attend his back porch psychiatry sessions, but now he left them with unforgettable memories, stories, and his way with words that will last a lifetime. While he was never rich, he always had money for beer and bait. He left his children with his love for boating, fishing, literature, and sunsets. Roy was a true friend, a wonderful husband and father, and touched more people than he would ever realize.

At his request, no service will be held. His ashes will be scattered in the Allegheny River and the Gulf of Mexico at a later date.

Captain Roy finally found God in the Gulf of Mexico.

In lieu of flowers, please consider drinking a cold one or drowning a worm in his memory.
