My deepest sympathy and condolances to your family. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Verdugo here in Denver at MiMi's communion many years ago. He was the sweetest man, so gentle and kind. He just lit up with his family around him.
May your memories comfort you.

Oh Tata, How much you loved your family. You told me that your life was, a beautiful life and that gives me great comfort now. I will live my life to honor your belief in me. You were a great grandfather to Bela and I. You loved my MiMi with all your heart and she loved you dearly.

I will miss you singing to me on my birthday and you making the rooster sounds...my losses seem endless. But, you are safe and with my beautiful Nana...I love you both!

Conoci a Sr. Verdugo en 1987 cuando empeze a trabajar en Mission View. Siempre recorde sus consejos. Despues tuve el placer de una vez mas trabajar con el. En la Escuela Bilingue Davis Don Emilio Verdugo fue como abuelo para muchos estudiantes y personal de la escuela. Nunca olvidare cuando estuvo el presente en mi boda en 1991 y bailo conmigo durante el baile del dolar. Me traia dando vueltas como trompo.
Que en paz descanse amigo.

Bendito sea nuestro Senor Jesucristo y familiares difuntos lo reciban con los brazos abiertos para su decanso eterno.

Para nosotros es una tristeza, pero para Jesucristo una bendicion.

Gracias a Dios que pudimos contar con su generoso espiritu y vida durante 96 anos...

My deepest sympathy and condolence to the family of Emilio B. Verdugo. He was a great gentleman and our family respected his sincere caring of other people. He was an asset to the City of South Tucson in many ways.

May God Welcome Him with Open Arms as He Welcomes Him Into His Kingdom.
