A great man has passed a way, my uncle Charlie (Carlos). He was a strong man with a tender heart. I remember you uncle & you use to take for a ride on your lap in your Wheel chair. You fought for greater rights for others & work with many presidential adminstrations. I am proud to say that you were my uncle, & proud we come from the same bloodline. Love u Tio! You Will be missed. Go in peace. Now you are with grandma, abuela, & the other great family I had the pleasure to have part of my life.

Love you tio!

Your nephew Carlito
