Dearest Cunado, What can I say, except for it's been real.Thank-you for taking the time to get to know David, me and the kids. I will miss talking and laughing with you. But know that I will always remember your smile. Knowing that we will see you again and be able to share more talks and laughs is comforting and makes your absents a little bit easier. Until that time Cunado, keep an eye over us all here that miss and love you very much.

Your Cunada, Simona Abeytia
