Querida familia Vela,
Estamos con ustedes en tan grande dolor. Tío Raque ya está descansando y damos gracias por haber tenido una vida llena de alegría. Toda mi familia siempre ha apreciado mucho a Tío Raque, un gran hombre. Me encantaba escucharlo siempre contando sus chistes y también oir a mi padre, René Vela, repetirnos los chistes de Tío Raque. También recuerdo bien lo orgulloso que estaba de toda su familia y especialmente sus nietos. El y tía Tula siempre nos acompañaban en cada bautizo, cada primera comunión, y muchas piñatas y viviendo tan lejos lo apreciamos mucho. Nuestros hijos también lo recuerdan bien. Damos gracias tener tantos recuerdos de él. Aprecíamos mucho también nuestra amistad con sus hijos y toda su familia. Tía Tula que Díos le ayude a seguir su vida y disfrutar su familia. Siempre estamos listos para servirles en lo que necesiten.
Con mucho cariño,
Emilio, Bertha Arribas e hijos
