My uncle Elmo, my father Adolfo´s brother, was, and still is, the main reason why I was able to get a second chance at life.

I want to extend my deepest condolences during this incredibly difficult time. He was truly a light in every room - someone who could bring joy and laughter to anyone´s face.

They were...

Such a kind man. Both Elmo and Clara. I rented one of my first apartments from him over 40 years ago. Would run into him at Elmos in Vernon. Always remembered me and my daughter.

I have so many fond memories of Elmo as he gave both my partner and me an opportunity to open a restaurant that he had owned. He was always mentoring us and was just a kind soul. May you rest in peace my friend...
