Nacho, Rest In Peace my brother in Christ. Teresa and family, we pray that our Lord and Savior bring you great comfort during these difficult days. Nacho is now in the arms of our Lord. He was a sweet and wonderful person who I always will remember having a great smile on his face at Valley and UNM. He touched many lives in positive ways. God bless all of you.
