To the Family of "Nacho" ~

I pray God will give you His strength now in your time of need. Nacho is now in Heaven with your loved ones and our loved one June Moore Palmer from his THS Class of 1956 and the many others that were with him from his school days. They are now having a great "reunion". I know you loved Nacho and will miss him dearly but we will soon see our loved ones that we have had to say our goodbye for now.

Dear Judy and family,
We will never forget Nacho, he is a part of our "best" years. All of our children were playing baseball or just hanging out at TCLL, and Nacho was in the stands....calling out "Looking good, real good." Nacho was an honorable, good man, we were blessed to have had him in our lives. God bless all of you.
