To Marcos' family, especially George, Irma and your mother, Bertha. My heartfelt condolences to all of you. There has hardly been a day that I haven't thought of our fateful ride to Mt. Lemmon in July 1974 when we had that terrible accident. Our lives were changed forever and we may have grown apart but never far in spirit. It was so nice to read that Marcos took that unfortunate circumstance and turned it into a positive throughout his life. I have held the fondest of memories for Marcos for many years and always had a special place in my heart for him. This message is sent to his family from a far with loving thoughts of Marcos and to say what a truly special person he was. I trust there will be an abundance of wonderful memories to keep Marcos alive in your family forever. Cindy Gee.
