To Dina and the Padilla Family, our heartfelt condolences go out to each and every one of you for the loss of our dearly beloved Brother, Fred Padilla. We will always remember Fred for his veracity, for his commitment to Family and Friends, for guiding his Family to continue his legacy. We were saddened to hear of Fred's passing, but our faith teaches us that he is soon to be united with the faithfully departed. John 14:1-3: Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

Amen, my Brother, Fred Padilla. May you now rest in Peace.

From the Rubin E. Mayorga Family (Gale, Maci and Isabella)
