Dear Jodi and Hector's Family:
I am truly saddened by Hector's passing. He was a true source of inspiration when I most needed it as a college student. Throughout all the years of our friendship , I remember all the great times spent together and the influence he had on my professional development. I will always treasure these memories.

I'm honored to have met him during my days with ASPIRA. He was a "cool dude"
The latino community, family and friends will definitely miss him. Too young too soon to leave us.

All great men leave a legacy, Hectors gifts were focused on his beloved Latino community. He was a leader, he inspired so many, a believer, with great compassion for others—what a wonderful way of remembering someone who touched the hearts of so many people.
We have lost an incredible leader. May he rest in peace. Hector, we will never for get you. Que Dios este a tu lado siempre y te acompañe en tu nuevo camino.
