Not sure what to say?

Words cannot express how sad we feel to know Don Mercelo has passed. Please accept our deepest condolence. Although we knew Don Marcelo a short period of time, we could tell how great of a man he was. That was not only by his accomplishments, but for the love and respect he constaly received from his family and friends. He will be missed indeed. May the Lord give you peace in your heart knowing he has reunited with his beloved wife. Un fuerte abrazo

Very sorry to hear about the loss of your love one. It is never an easy process but his memories will remain with you forever. His legacy will be carried from generation to generation. His family is a testimony of who he was. To my good friend and his family I express my sympathy. I never had the opportunity to meet Mr. Colon but I had the opportunity to hear stories about him.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Colon family and their love ones. Senor Colon and his family made significant contributions to Reading and the Latino community and for that I am grateful. May you honor his memories by continuing the good work. God bless, Isamac & Angel Figueroa

My heart is filled with pain and sorrow as I will deeply miss you Marcelo. We shared many memories together, especially during my visits to your home in Puerto Rico. You made me laugh so many times and I will always cherish every moment we shared together. You were the King of the Tribe and you will forever continue to hold such title. You were an amazing father, grandfather, and father-in-law anyone could ask for. Thank you for being a part of my life and for all the life lessons you shared...

Words can not express the love and beautiful memories I have of my uncle Marcelo. He has always been one of the rocks in my family. The three brothers on 8th St, Paco, Marcelo and my Dad, Eligio. I thank God that I was born under the watchful eyes of these men. I find comfort that they will all be together again, resting in peace. Marcelo, you will be in my heart forever!

To the Colon family. My condolences to all of you. Marcelo was the greatest man alive. He taught the family how to survive and be successful at everything. Very proud to be part of a great loving family. God bless. Uncle Marcelo is in heaven celebrating and rejoicing. RIP. Love you all so much.

Condolences to the Colon Family. May you know the comfort of our Loving God at this time of sorrow.

My condolenscences to you and your family on the passing of your father. Always keep the great memories close to your heart. It is what helps us in those sad times.
