I will remember Emilio for so many reasons. What comes to mind first is his contagious laughter. He found such joy in so many things, and when he laughed, he laughed with his whole body.
Emilio and his entire family are in my thoughts and prayers. May God help each of you through the difficult months ahead.
We lost and wonderful man when God called him home.
With deepest sympathy,

Emilio was very special to me...I have such fond memories of my childhood with Tammy and all of her family. His nickname for me was "Rockin' Robin" and he would call me by that name every time I came in to the post office or wherever I ran into him! Each time he would call me "Rockin' Robin" I would feel like I was 13 years old again and all was happy in my world! What a blessing to have known him, had him as a part of my life and to know for sure I will see him in heaven someday! Much love, thoughts and continued prayers for you all...
