Sandra,Sylvia and Alvaro Jr. My condolences to you and your family. I was your Kindergarten teacher at Austin Elementary School many years ago. Sandy or Sylvia was a nurse and she attended my husband when he was undergoing cancer treatments several years ago. He was very happy with her care. Thank you for the kindness you showed him then. I remember you often and your Mother as she was always there for whatever activities we had at school. May God give you the strength you need mow as you are going through these difficult times. I am sorry that we can’t attend amy of the services for your father, but rest assure you all are in our prayers.
