Mario and Fernando our deepest sympathy at this difficult time. Your dad was a wonderful man who deeply touched our hearts. We loved talking to him every time we visited. He will be greatly missed. Our prayers are with you and your families. God Bless you all.

Cousins Mario, Fernando and Family, I love you all very much! Tio Mario will remain in our hearts forever as have those family members that have gone before him. I pray that God give us strength during this difficult time. I have many special memories of Tio Mario that can never be erased. He was a great husband (to my beautiful Tia Lela), grandfather,uncle and the ultimate gentleman. He was strict and stern but kind, loving and gentle at the same time. My Tio garnered respect and rightfully so. I love him and will miss him tremendously. I find comfort in the Lord and in knowing we will all be together someday.
May the Lord Bless our Family, Marissa and Pedro
