To Mr Lorenzo Vega's Family:

Lorenzo was deeply involved at church, and he always helped me when I asked him. he used to remind me of my late grandfather, and was the kind of persons you don't see anymore; he was kind, friendly even if he didn't know you, very respectful, polite, and very smart. I remember seeing him on Sunday's mass every week for as long as i can remember, always with his loving wife by his side. I pray to God, not only for him, cause I know he should be in heaven by now, but i pray for you. its a great loss, but his traditions, and character was passed onto you. I pray you find the strength to remain calm in difficult times, and that you my find peace in your hearts. Que Dios los bendiga hoy, y todos los dias.
