Dearest Escarcega Family,
Words cannot express my love and affection for all of you. Micki, Cheyo, Martin and Gloria - you all have been a part of my life as far back as I can remember. I can honestly say there has never been a major celebration in our family without your presence. And the celebrations would not have been the same if you weren't there. We will dearly miss Cheyo. We have nothing but wonderful memories to sustain us in the days/years ahead. May God bless you and grant you His peace during this difficult time. Thank you for being such dear friends to my parents - Paul & Lupe. I know they're sitting down at the table of the Lord having coffee (black) and great conversations (pero mira no mas quien viene por aqui!). Danny and our entire family send you our love and condolences.
Love always,
Carmen Gonzales (Ferrero)
