To the Baca Family and extended family members: On behalf of the Romero Clan we want to offer our condolences on the loss of Mario(your father, grandfather and great grandpa). We all remember his calm demeanor and serene smile which I am sure you all miss tremendously Ahh those fresh tomatoes which he always grew in his garden were so delicious. He is surely growing a bountiful garden in heaven. May God give you strength as you heal this from this loss. God Bless!
