Dearest Edna, Livia, Dey, Ray, Nato & extended family...my heart & prayers go out to all of you during this very difficult time. It's a terrible loss but thankfully he's in a better place now and no longer suffering. I will always know him affectionately as 'Papi' and how he only spoke Spanish to me because he said I looked Spanish & being close friends with Edna, therefore I WAS Spanish! I always tell me kids that I wish I would have stayed close to the family because I would be able to speak fluently now. If there's anything at all that I can do for you, please do not hesitate to let me know. I mean this sincerely & from the heart. Love to all!

I would have loved to be there and support you all in your final goodbyes but I was unable to make it. May he sleep in peace and may you all feel Gods tender love for you all.
