Candy was a type of person that always made you smile even when you weren´t feeling up to it. He was always ready with his clever jokes. Those type that kept you on your toes but was sure to make you laugh and smile. He was a man that was always full of life. Knowing him for more than 35 years, I never seen him other than happy and with a sunny disposition. He was full of life all the way until the end. He had such a will to live and make others smile.
Thank you Candy for being a great friend to our family. I thank you for giving my mother housing for her and her 4 children when she needed it the most. Candy, you will surely be missed. I hope we will see each other again in God´s kingdom.
