I met Junior in back in high school through my neighbor. He was always such a friendly, happy guy. You could always count on him for a laugh! The last time I saw him was about a year ago when he brought his dog to the vet where I work. Although it had been a very long time since I had seen him, he's just one of those people you can talk to and pick up where you left off. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him.

Met Junior the summer of 2005 through working together for the Dubuque Schools. First day we worked with each other he treated me as if we'd been life long friends and continued treating me that way. I will miss him for the rest of my life.
