Condolences to the Reyna family. To quote Cissy, he will always be Pitti to those of us from Castroville & with connections to the Reyna family. Many Castroville families (Rico, Escobar, Valdez) have always held him in high regard & he was & will continue to be part of fond family stories/memories.
