In the realm of memories, where dreams reside,
There dwells a figure, by my side.
Taoshio, uncle dear, cool and tender,
A guiding light, a constant sender.

With open arms and a heart so wide,
He supported my dreams, never denied.
Through the twists and turns of schooling's maze,
He walked beside me, through the haze.

Cool and calm, in every storm,
His presence a comfort, always warm.
With laughter and joy, he taught life's lessons,
In a light and fun way, amidst confessions.

Through his tales and words of wisdom,
I learned to navigate life's kingdom.
With every joke, with every smile,
He made life's journey worthwhile.

So here's to Taoshio, uncle dear,
Whose love and guidance I hold so near.
In my heart, his memory will forever stay,
As I walk life's path, day by day.

A toast for Taoshio, our beacon bright,
For his love and support, shining light.

- to Nelson Cardoza Jr. Rest in Peace Taoshio.
