To my first brother in law and brother. For as long i can remember you where my only brother figure when i was small and you used to preach at me for not doing my chores or not wanting to take a shower and scrub all the dirt off my hands from playing marbles. No one ever did that besides you and my sister Rosa and Letty. I want to thank you for being there for me when i was just a stupid kid. I will always have you in my heart and know that your wife, my sister will be OK. I miss you. Rogelio Villalobos JR

Mr. Cabrera,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USAF during the Cold War. Millions of Americans slept safe at night because you and your fellow servicemen and women stood ready to defend our Country. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
