Working wtih Mario's son Victor, I was honored to meet Mario and his beautiful wife, Carmen. My husband and I had the pleasure of spending time with them and hearing lovely stories about their lives. Mario was such a gentleman and always very proud of his family. His legacy of honor and respect for others is clearly reflected through the lives of his children. It was a blessing for us to share time with him through knowing Victor. Our thoughts and prayers are with Carmen, Victor, and the entire Rocher family. Debra and Wilberto Torres
