Not sure what to say?

We met Bill at Vista Grande Community Church soon after we moved to Colorado Springs where we became members. He recently attended the memorial service for my husband although we had not seen Bill for several years. Our family sincerely appreciated his presence. This is a great example of his compassion for others. May your family be blessed with many happy memories.

Bill was a great volunteer and supporter of the local running cummunity. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was always willing to pitch in any way needed. He will be missed.

Mr. Gallegos was my 5th/6th grade teacher at Garfield Elementary and I enjoyed every minute of my class with him. One of my favorite memories was when he introduced us to "McCavity the Cat". We would beg him to read it over and over, every spare minute we had. I feel honored to have known him.
