Sorry for the loss of Jose. Regrets for his passing. I knew him to be a kind and cheerful person who had the respect and admiration of many besides me. I wish his family and friends comfort in the knowledge that Jose was a good family man who enjoyed life and accomplished much in his many years on this blessed earth.
May the good lord bless and Keep him.
