Not sure what to say?

He was like a dad to me growing up with Tommy. We'd go fishing down to town lake, pedernales river. These fishing expedition came with lots of life lessons. He was one heck of a man. Thank you Carlos for everything may you rest in peace

Its unbelievable that you have been gone just over 8 years now. So much has happened in my and Emma´s lives. Indeed, so much has happened in the world since you passed. Emma is now a young lady with a boyfriend, Kolby. She is set to graduate high school this summer. Its so hard to believe she is now 18.

God bless you, Carlos. Wonderful to hear you had a great family...
