My brother and I remember, during one of our many visits to San Antonio, observing Grandpa adding spices to his homemade barbacoa and exclaiming in a distinct inflection, "Salsa!"
Also he would tell us his stories from the time he was enlisted in the U.S. Armed Forces. These stories were very inspiring. He brought to us a sense of courage and strength. We love him and will miss him dearly.
