My thoughts and prayers to the Roxas family. I met Nestor in 1982 when I started working at Pacific Telephone. Amigo, you will be missed!

Adrian and Roxas family I send my condolences. During this time know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and may God's Grace strengthen you to heal and make it through this time.
Remember that your dad will always be with you; physically he is gone but not spiritually. His spirit and good will always be part of you no matter where you are. You may have wanted, needed, and hoped for more time to spend with him but God needed his angel home with him. Remember the memories of your dad to get you through this time and also to sustain his spirit.
In Blessings and Love,
~Tanisha Champion and Family
