I pray that your family is healing and doing well. I don't believe I am here by accident. My family history research has lead me here today and I'm very sad to see that Cecilio Villa's stepsons have passed. I am the great great grand-daughter of Maria del Carmen Villa, Cecilio's sister. If anyone was curious about their step grandfather's family, I would be happy to share my knowledge. I only wish I had found this information in time to share it with your Samuel and Lawrence Gambosi. Thank...

We just heard the news that your struggle is over. May God wrap you in his love and reward you for all the wonderful things you did in your life. Maybe you can give the Cubs a bit of help. Norm says , don't drink all the beer before he gets there. We ask that God give you all comfort in your time of grieving.
Respectfully--Norm and Wilda Legner
