Margie and family, In 1973, when I returned to Colorado Springs, my home town, from where I'd graduated from Divine Redeemer and St. Mary's High School, and living there briefly on Dale Street and working at St. Francis Hospital, my girl friend and I made El Burrito a regular visit on Friday evenings. I had convinced her that we should make authentic "Mexican" food part of every week and what we found in El Burrito was just the very best of it. I've never had better. The chiles rellenos...

RIP Lolo. You are missed. Loved your food when I lived in Colorado Springs

Dear Marge and Derek and Darin and Family, We are so sorry for your loss and pray that God will bless you all. We always feel welcome at Bean Bandit and our dad always ordered your tamales. My husband Al and I and friends are long-time fans. Take care.

The death of a love one is very difficult. Therefore, I'd like to share scripture that may help. Please, read John 6:40, 44 and Ps. 36:9.

So sorry for your loss. I started eating at your restaurant when it was a converted gas station. Lolo, Marge and the boys were always wonderful to me and the food was superior. When I saw Lolo come out of the kicthen to say hello I knew I was in for a great meal. Lolo will be missed by all. God Bless.

Marge, Derek Darin and family. I was so shocked when I came to eat at Bean Bandit today to hear that your beloved husband,father and grandfather had died.My late husband Bob and I ate there at least once a week and loved talking with you and your sons.
My prayers are with you all. The world has lost another wonderful man.
Love is forever. Trina Hall

I will never forget when I was a little girl, Lolo smelling my perfume, when we would come to eat. He will be greatly missed. God bless you all and our thoughts and prayers are with you. Amy (Burkett) Duarte

Marge, I am so sorry to hear of Lolo's passing. I know that there is nothing that can fill the void that you are experiencing at this time. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
