I love Milton very much and his wife and children. He was my Dad's cousin and he would tell the funniest jokes and he was the funniest person. What time in my dad's office a little stink bug was crawling slowly across the floor and Milton just looked at me in amazement and said did you see the mini hippopotamus? He had that Sanchez humor was wonderful and that Sanchez super intelligence. Love, Alexia Baca Morgan

Milton and his family were dear friends of our family over 50 years ago. My ex husband and I came to know them when we came to Albuquerque to work for Millar Coffee. At that time Milton was working for Millar. He and his wife Ninfa welcomed us to New Mexico and shared their sweet family with us. There was so much joy in their home, we loved spending time there with our two young children, Lloyd and Stephanie. I remember learning to roast green chilies at their home and traveling to Belin to visit Milton's parents on Thanksgiving. He and Ninfa were such a loving couple and I will always remember the times we spent together. God bless you Milton as he wraps his loving arms around you. Love, Pat (Donnelly) Tunnell
