Condolences
"I’m very grateful for my Tio. He was a man of a few words, but he was always very kind. I enjoyed watching him take his evening strolls around my Mom’s neighborhood with my Tia. They’re so cute because they became well known by all the neighbors. He will be deeply mussed and you’re all in our prayers "
