On the 27th day of the New Year, 2025, Our Almighty Father, requested the presence of one of His humble and faithful sons and servants. Our Lord Jesus saw that Hondo needed some help along his way to answer "The Call". So like in the story, "Footprints on the Sand" Jesus carried Hondo Torres home to the Presence of God, to receive his reward of eternal Peace, Forgiveness and Rest.

Hondo Torres, is one of seven siblings his mother Josephine Rodriguez Torres, received from God. His birthday is on July 10, 1956. After a rough young life, he became a jack of all trades and master of all. He chose to be a great professional interstate transportation driver. After high school, he had college training in other talents and trades. He is an excellent carpenter, knew plumbing, completed electrical training and commercial cement. He could drive and operate any commercial vehicle. He loves to travel and with his life partner, best friend and wife, Veda, he visited 49 states and Puerto Rico. Tom Brady is his favorite football player. He loves watching spooky movies, westerns and comedies. He loves Carly Simon music and Cher singing, "You haven't seen the last of me". He loved children, the elderly, and his many cats, dogs and birds. Now Hondo is "kicking back" enjoying his rewards and blessings from Jesus and Father God.
