Mom- The boys and I will miss Pepe so much. He lived a rich and wonderful life and created a family that will carry on his work for a very long time. We know that he is at peace and that Ray is with him. He was a blessed man and we were blessed to have him as our father and grandfather. With much love- Mary, Jacob, Phillip and Stephen Sylvain
