You left us with tears in our eyes.
Smiles in our faces to have the pleasure of your presence.
Your wonderful family for us to see if we ever want to see you.
Laughs from the times we teased each other or better yet we teased you.
Love that you always had for us. We will miss you everyday but know that you cannot be here.
We will have many fond memories from when we were young till we were starting to grow old. You will never be forgotten. NEVER.

Carlos was a great Tio and I'll never forget his genuine, humbling nature. He had a way of making others feel comfortable and so welcome. He will be missed tremendously. Sending our love to Tia Sandy, Christy, Stephanie, JD and Jesse.
