TO THE VASQUEZ FAMILY,
I WAS A DRIVER FOR THE ROADRUNNER BUS (THE CITY BUS) AND I REMEMBER YOUR FATHER RIDING A LOT. HE WAS A VERY NICE MAN AND HE ALWAYS HAD CANDY OR GUM TO GIVE ME WHICH MADE ME SMILE. AND HIS SATURDAY TRIPS UP TO THE FLEA MARKET. MY PRAYERS ARE WITH OUR FAMILY, AND I'M SURE HE'S TELLING SOME OF HIS CRAZY STORIES TO THE MAN UP STAIRS.
