My dearest condolences to the Salmon family. They were our next door neighbors when we were growing up in the Brady Garden neighborhood. May Juanlino rest in eternal RIP. I want to thank Juanlino and Margaret for caring for my family especially my mother and little sister Rhonda after my Dad died in 1980. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Juanlino and Margaret are two of the most generous people i have ever met. May God bless the Salmon family always.
