Beto leaves behind his beloved grandchildren Diego, Evan, Joshua, Ethan, Jade, and Javier who brought immense joy to his life.
Beto was a proud father and grandfather who never missed an opportunity to talk about his family or share a video. He could often be found at the baseball fields, cheering loudly from the stands and supporting his boys with unwavering love.
