To all the children of Jose, We are good friends of Patti and Roy and we had the honor of watching them care for your father in his last years. They cared and provided for your father amazingly and it was an inspiring to observe. We have been able to know Martin and have met Alicia and John and send our deepest sympathies to all of you.
