Papa. Today we remember your sister. Catherine Sanchez Paulino. She was always your best friend. May she rest in peace. Aaron and I will always remember her every day with us. Love you Auntie Catherine. Love the trips that you took with Aaron and me to Downtown Disney for fun. I'm happy that you laughed with us. Glad to have bought you that big steak dinner when I was so poor. I love you every day.
