My sincere and deepest condolences to the Acevedo family. It saddens my heart to know "Ace" is no longer with us here on Earth, yet I know he will always be near us in spirit. I meet him about 24 years ago when he was married to his first wife Cindy. We lived in the same apt complex in Fresno. I remember how proud he was when Renee was born. He and I went to the hospital to bring her home. Daddy's girl he always said, of her. He was always there to lend a helping hand when I was in need of one. His love for his family was tremedously known to his friends. Always talked about his brother Gilbert and how they loved growing up in Fowler. If all possible I would love to hear from either his current wife and/or Ritchie or Renee. So I may share my memories of him from long ago. Ace, hope to see you again someday. Rest in peace my friend.
