Mi nombre es adriana. solo queria expresar mis lamentaciones por la perdida qué su familia ha sufrido. Algo que me ha ayudado a mi es la esperanza que da la biblia. En Isaias 25:8 Jehova Dios nos promete que "El realmente se tragara la muerte para siempre... Jehova ciertamente limpiara las lagrimas de todo rostro". Pronto volveremos a ver a nuestros seres queridos que han muerto (Hechos 24:15).

Saludos y mis mas sentidas condolencias. Adriana reyes

It's difficult to move on when we've lost a loved one, but we have memories that no one can take away, memories that will bring a smile and ease the pain and sorrow. May the loving support of friends and family help you through this difficult time.

I knew Mr. Porco from my days as a student at Sylmar High School. May you rest in peace. Thank you for your Service, not only to our Country, but to so many students.

I can imagine Angelo in Heaven flying a big jet (a wish of his) all around checking out the various golf courses! I didn't want Angelo to leave...but God has other plans for him! He was a proud and honorable gentlemen. The Johnsons of Idaho will forever keep Angelo in their hearts! Love, Barbra, Clovis and Max
