Hector was a good man and a very special friend. We only knew him for 6 years, but we had very special times with him. More than that he treated us like family. Please know how very much we loved him. Our neighborhood will never be the same without him.

Mr. and Mrs. Lopez and Beth. I am so sorry about Hector. In his last days he spoke of you three and the rest of his family in the most loving way a man could. He leaves a void in my life that will never be filled. A part of me was lost on that day as well. I will forever remember him as one of my closest friends as well as the kindest person I've ever known. It was an honor to call him a friend.
