Julio,

I will always remember you from grade school in Guadalupe. Back then I was very timid but the way you smiled always made me feel less insecure. I will always remember your warm smile and sparkly eyes. Even though years passed and we met again after 30 years, you had not changed at all were still the same as when we were in 8th grade. I have often thought of you in the past year and your smile always came to mind. I don't know why I always prayed for you every time I thought of you. You are with God now. God Bless you. To Julio's Family, I am so sorry that Julio has gone. You were blessed to have had for the time you did.

Julio you were one and million and the toughest, hardworking man I ever met. I know I only knew through how you worked but your hard work showed me who you are, a strong willed,minded man. You also thought me that you should work hard no matter what age you are. Thank you for being you and never change for any one or anything, you were a real person and you keeping it real was who you were/are. My condolences to your family and may you sleep with the Angel's and Rest In Peace. All of us here at Labor Ready will miss you.....

Respectfully,
Manny Macias and Staff

I used to manage Petrini's Italian here is Sm and Julio was our head cook... he was such a happy soul and always made working any shift better... he was always laughing and smiling and joking and just an all around great guy. I will miss his friendly smile and his amazing cooking. The world lost a good man and heaven just gained an amazing angel. My condolences and love to the family.
