I knew hector since we were in kindergarten at san carlos elementary.
He's one of the ones who did not bully me..who showed kindness..and was a chilled kid. In high school he would sit behind me in class and we'd work on our class assignments together. I juat learned of his passing a few months ago from his sister and it hurt to know hes gone. I cried in my car at that parking lot for a long time before I could drive home. I will always appreciate how kind he was too me.

I'm truly sorry to hear of Mr. Hernandez's passing. I would like to offer my sincere condolences to his daughter and family. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope. And that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. In the days to come may you find comfort in that hope.
