Out most sincere condolences to the Perez family. May the memories you have of Basilio comfort you at this time of sorrow. I had not seen him for a while, but my gosh today I saw him and he resembeled my father ( Jose Ma Requenez) so much. My grandmother was Cleotilde Perez.
May Basilio rest in peace. Yolanda Requenez-Beltran.
