Uncle Cheo I miss and think about you so often. I hope you and Daddy have reconnected. Two Souls, bright lights, sharing an immense amount of pure Love. Thank you for being an AWESOME Uncle. Keep the light on, okay? Love you. Annie

Te recuerdo

I was one of Eliseos students the second year he taught (1960). He had me in his theater class for three years and he instilled the love of literature and theater which I have carried my entire life. His laugh and voice is still in my head. I´m so grateful for him and to see his lovely family. Bless you all and I am truly sorry for our loss.

Mr. Martinez was my drama teacher, at Haltom High School, Haltom City, Tx, class of 1962.There are not enough words or room in this space to tell you what a very large part he played in my life. He and his wife and son, David, visited me and my family while we were living in Austin, Tx. I have held that visit close to my heart. My sincere and heartfelt sympathy to his family.

There are so many memories of Cheo. We started kindergarden together at the St. Francis de Paula Catholic school in San Diego, TX. Then on to same high school in San Diego. Everyone liked Cheo. He always wore a smile. I remember him very interested in dramatic arts and was always involved in our hi school plays. It was a pleasure to see each other again during our 50th hi school reunion. May God bless Cheo and keep him in his kingdom forever. My condolences to all his family. With...

You are dearly missed Uncle Cheo. Thank you for so many special memories. Salud, Annie
