My deepest sympathy to the Mungia family. I have wonderful memories of Brother and his family growing up on the southside. We enjoyed skating at the Goliad skating rink as kids and hanging out at the car lot with Mr. Mungia and enjoying the cook outs and watching them repair cars and listening to the stories. I will miss Brother very much and pray for him.

John 14:1-4 ”Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.” (Jesus' words)
Until we meet again Brother!
Love you,your niece,

Lord,
welcome into your calm
and peaceful kingdom
those who have departed
out of this present life
to be with you.
Grant them rest
and a place with the spirits of the just;
and give them the life that knows no age,
the reward that passes not away,
through Christ our Lord. Amen. Jesus,Stella,Gabriel and Jacob De La Cruz

I remember "Brother" always had a passion for fast cars, going to Alamo Dragway as a young boy and watching him race his cars my best friend at the time Vince always looked at him like a super hero. May your family find peace through this knowing that he had an impact on so many lives. God bless Eddie Gonzaba
