Not sure what to say?

Tia Lucy, Louie, Estevan, Rigo and all my Tio's family. Our prayers and condolences go out to you.

I will never forget my Tio Manny. I still remember all the family gatherings at your house. The special times at your house to see the 4th of July fireworks at "A" Mountain, front row seats. All his generosity extended to my family during the difficult times and especially the orange plumbing truck he used to drive around town in. All these and many more great memories of my Tio....

Maggie, we have been out of town for the last few weeks and was saddened to read about your Dad's passing. My condolences go out to your Mom, Lucy and the rest of the family. My Mom, always told me wonderful stories of Manuel. We will always remember Manuel as a kind loving and caring man with everyone.
May a lifetime of wonderful memories give strength to you and the rest of the family in the days ahead.

After attending the mass today for my cousin Manny, I so moved by the eulogy that his sons and grandson gave. I went to high school with Estevan at THS and we kept in touch over the years.

Manny and Lucia did a wonderful job raising such a caring family. May God grant you solace. Love Always your cousin.

Rest in peace Tio. You've earned it......

The world lost a great man, but he lives on in the lives of those who knew and love him. I'll miss you Nino Manuel! WIth all my love - Andrea Fisher

We know of your grief.
May you be comforted with the knowledge of a reunion in Heaven.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.
