Dearest Dorothy and Children,
Hearts are heavy when our loved ones pass. Joaquin was a brother to me as I spent a lot of my childhood years with
Ta, Na, Carlos, Terry and Joaquin. I am grateful for the visits we had through the years. Joaquin was blessed to have a wife such as you Dorothy. The love and care you gave him was kind and gentle. I will miss him immensely but comforted that he is with our Father.
Love you all.
