To the May Family,

You have my deepest condolescences in the loss of Juan. He & my son, Jason, were friends from the time that they were 12 years old and we found it so ironic that they both ended up in the Dallas area. Juan practically grew up in my household, too, so it is just devastating to all of my family to hear of his passing. May God in His Infinite Wisdom bring you Comfort and Strength at your time of grief and sorrow.
