Simon Vasquez Fuentes Jr

I knew Sam during 1980 to 1983, during an oil boom in Monahans Texas. I´ve thought about him occasionally during the years. I was just out of the Military. I went to work for Halliburton and I was his cement pump truck driver. He took me under his wing and helped me as a young man! He was always good to me and I have never forgotten him.

My name is Richard Gonzales, I met Simon when I bought a ranch in Panther Canyon. The times when I would go to my ranch I could always count on Simon coming by and offering a hand in whatever I was doing. I would give him some cigars which I believe he really enjoyed. I will miss him. When he was getting ready to hang up during our phone conversations he would always say :YO". Until we meet again my friend.

Sam was pleasant to visit with. He would tell me that Marcia took good care of him. He said both Marcia and Irene were good cooks. He tried to make you feel good. He shared his ranch with us. It´s a nice place to visit. Lee Cook (Gramz)

Mr Sam was a loving, thoughtful and special neighbor. He has brought many good times and memories to me and my boys.He is loved and will be missed.He holds a special place in our hearts.
