My thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Uribe's family. I had the honor of meeting him, while I worked at Latin American Affairs, with his daughter Solita. No words could express what a tribute Mr. Uribe was to our city, the First Ward,and Tri-City Ser. He will be missed.

Our condolences go out to the extended Uribe family on hearing of Bob's passing. He was a good person; a good human being & we will miss him.
