Family of Chuy Salgado,
I wish to express my condolence for your loss of Chuy Salgado.
I have fond memories of her and her kind husband Damas, daughter Faye, sons Bobby and Gary. We were neighbors and our paths crossed for many years growing up in Midland.
I remember Chuy as kind, gentle and considerate to everyone she crossed paths with. And I know that her passing will not only leave a void in your life, but in the hearts of all those who knew her.
My thoughts...

There are things we don't want to happen,but have to accept, and there are people we can't live without but have to let go... I will always remember my "Tia Chuy" fondly. I have wonderful memories of times spent with her during my younger years. Remembering her wonderful and gentle soul will forever remain in my heart. May you rest in peace Tia Chuy... With much love from California,
Your niece, Evelyn
