My Uncle Poncho was a great man. He was brother to my mother and they both instilled love and generosity in our families. I am most grateful that he brought his family out from Laredo to grow up as neighbors and life long friends. My first cousins are a deep part of my life. While we may not have gotten together as often over the last few years, we have such a strong family bond, time does not matter.
My dearest Aunt Nanda, I know you will mis him, just as I will miss my mom, but we now have two more saints in heaven to watch over us.
God be with you always.
Love,
Rita Irene

I will always remember his big smile and kind spirit. He would always say "come in come in" "sit down" "how are you?", "eat" :) ". I loved talking with him. He was a most wonderful grandfather too! May God bring your family peace and may their special memories of this very special man be beautiful and everlasting. With Love, Cindy (Wes and Lindsay's mom)
