To all my cousins, Ken and I were deeply saddened to hear about Uncle Carlos. He and tia have always been our role models of a beautiful marriage and we loved him so much. I will miss hearing from him with a call every now and then or a card. He was such a loving man full of life. We have all been blessed by his example of living a Godly life. This is only a temporary absence until we all meet together on that heavenly shore. God Bless each family member and know you are thought of and loved by us here in Washington. Our deepest sympathy and love, Ken & Rachel Ott (Hernandez)
