To see Tio Alfredo's picture here took me back to when my Tio's played at my wedding reception in Bettsville Ohio. It doesn't seem like it was that long ago. He lived a good life and we must cherish the memories we have of him close to our hearts. My deepest sympathy goes out to my relatives that have lost this wonderful man. He is in my prayers. Love you Tio
