Not sure what to say?

Our dearest Uncle Manuel Vela. I personally called him Tio Vela. I'd like to remember him as our to go to Uncle for advise or just to chat with. I admired his persona, his calmness when he spoke and a very good listener. I mostly miss that smile and always happy to see us. Watch over all of us Tio, especially our beautiful Tia Rosita. Two peas in a pot, that's how i would describe you both. Sending hugs up above and we'll all be together one day... From your Niece, Lucia

My condolences to the Vela family and friends. I'm going to miss Mr. Vela. He was respected and honorable...

May Our Lord give the family the strength to endure the pain and the void that is to come. We knew the Vela Family for alot of years. We are from the neighborhood and are so sorry to hear of his passing. He was a very gentle and kind man. All of his family was kind and gentle. May God Bless you all. from the Ambrocio and Hilaria Lopez Family.
