Dear Tia Ofelia, primo/as Johnny, Beatrice and Delia (and the primas I never met before we left for Michigan in 1963) and Anita,

our family was saddened to learn that Tio had passed; we remember him and Tia fondly. They have always been special in our family's memories. I would never feel unwelcomed at their home even after years of not seeing them; it was always like they last saw you the week before.
There is so little to add to folks' comments about their calm and loving personalities.

I remember the day I told my son that children's tv show host Mr. [Fred] Rogers died. There was a sudden and sad "ohhh" and almost immediately followed by a "oh that's good". I asked him how it could be good that Mr. Rogers died. He responded by saying "he was a good man, he did his job and did it well, he's done and it's time for him to be at a better place, to be with God". That pretty much sums up how I feel about Tio.
