I thought of Tony as a brother since he and my brothers Vidal and Rumaldo and of course my deceased husband Bobby Cardenas always hanged out together. We went to dances and hanged out at the park on Sunday afternoons. He was a funny and very caring person. Good memories will always stay in our hearts. My prayers and thoughts to Brenda and her family. Sincerely, Rachel Cardenas.
