So very sorry to hear this news. I has much respect for his work and demeanor as a reporter. Never full of himself. He was the first wave of Chicano reporters with my husband Andres Chavez, a founder of CCNMA, I was part of the 2nd wace. My gratitude for his work opening that door and my heartfelt condolences to his family, a tremendous loss.
