Madrina,
May God be with you and the family during this very difficult time. Ray and I both know that the kids will be your strength and that Esteban has gone on to be with Our Lord. His wit and cynical sense of humor will be greatly missed. May you be comforted in the passing days by your memories, and know that your extended "family" is here to be leaned on.
