My deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathy goes out to you Mrs Concha Silva. Juan worked with us on many items to support the B-52 Aircraft and other projects. Juan was one of the guys in "Back Shop" Planning that would always be there when we had any kind of support request. He will be missed by many former co-workers, friends and family.

My prayers go out to you and your family...
