To the Zamarripa Family,
It is with great sadness that I heard of his passing. He gave me my first chance in the work world by taking a chance on a Narbonne High graduate and let her run his office for a few years at Harbor Weighers. I have fond memories of working with Steve, John and Christy. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Sincerely Melanie Young

Dear Teresa, Annette and Stevie,
It is with great sadness to hear of the passing of your wonderful father, but happy that he will be reunited with your mother who was the love of his life. When I think back on the days when your parents would give me a ride to school, my fond memories were of your father loving his CIGARS and how the aroma fulfilled the entire car. I remember always teasing him about how wonderful it was to ride in Eva's car because it was so fragrant with scent of fresh flowers. May god bless you all during this difficult time. With love,
Suzanne Potter
