I've known Fito Sr. ever since I was a little girl and it is so hard to believe he has left us to go and be an angel in heaven. My condolences go out to his wife and kids who I love very much and have known all of my life. Ever since I can remember I would be over at Fito 's house everyday after school and when he would get home from work he would walk in with a smile on his face happy to see his family after a long days work. Then he would look over at me and say playing around," When did Gabby get another kid." Everywhere they went he always invited me to go as if I was part of the family. He will be missed and always remembered.
