Bishop Madera was a true Christian man. He loved and cared for everybody. Even after being appointed a bishop he still remained the people's parish priest. He impacted so many lives in such a deeply spiritual Godly manner. He will be dearly missed by all. I will miss his stories and his fun and kind demeanor. If you needed correcting, he gave it to you! May he rest In eternal glory with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I will miss you so much Tio! Thank you for loving me and caring about me!

My condolence to Bishop Madera, during my High School years. He helped my find a job, when my mother passed-on suddenly, I became the sole supporter to my brothers and sister. His religious words of wisdom helped me survive. Ramona
