dearest uncle,

Thank you for being such a wonderful and loving uncle to Tom. He credits you and Tony for taking him in and teaching him the important things in life. He has often said if it were not for the two of you, he would not be the person he is today. God Speed. Love Laura

I spoke to Juancho shortly after Martha and I started our relationship, twenty one years ago. He asked what I did for a living and I replied very reluctantly: "I'm a Musician". He responded:

"Well, do you play Cumbias?".That's all it toook for me to love Martha's Dad. He was very funny and

even funnier when we spoke Spanish.

Juancho was always there when we needed him. I will miss him dearly.
