Not sure what to say?

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help at this time.

Manual and I became friends while I worked at Collins Auto. Service. He was always bringing his vehicle in for one reason or another. I think he showed up on Tuesday's with his vehicle just so he could attend the after work meetings. He had some realy cool cars and I really enjoyed working on them. Whenever we saw each other we always took the time to catch up on what was going on.

Manuel, it was good working for you, for 20 years. We had some good partying years, too!! I know you've got that tambourine wailing away up there!!! I hope when I get up there, you'll have a set of horseshoes waiting for me!!!! Take care & God bless, your buddy, Jim Bailey

What can you say about a great man. A man with a huge heart. A man that would give you the shirt off his back. A man that was a great story teller and could make anyone laugh. A man that lived life his way and enjoyed every minute of it. what is there to say, but he will be missed greatly.
I will think of you often my friend. thank you for all the good times.

Kelly and Joel,
Our prayers are with you and your family. This is a very sad time for you. As time goes by just remember to think about all of the good times and the smile it brings to your face will help you through this time.

Although we have never met, I knew your father. I met him about fifteen years ago. He was one of the first Berbena's I met since first coming to Modesto. He was always a pleasure to be around...when I saw him! :) God Bless!
My mom is, Naomi Berbena Flores.
