Nino Ray,
For that is how I will forever remember you..... You were my Nino and my Tio and still are the only Tio I have ever really known. You stood by me, Becky and Esther all our lives - no matter what. When my father passed away and all we knew of the Salazar Family was you and Nina Betty you were there to love us and be proud of us and a part of our lives. Thank you for all your love and Thank you for being there for us always - I will miss you so much! Oh and Nino.... my daughter finally did graduate from U of A! She is the first Teacher in our family! I know you were there, just as you always have been at the special times in our lives, because she marched in to receive her Degree at 4:00 p.m. Dec. 18th - the same time you were meeting Jesus in heaven! I look forward to our glorious reunion there on the Streets of Gold! Until then my sweet Nino.... I will do my best to keep in touch with my cousins and my Nina. I love you! Your Godchild and Niece - Marietta

Betty and Family, I am so sorry for your loss. Ray was a great person and fun. Ray always made my family feel like part of the family each time we went to visit Sonia when she was still living at home. I appreciate having known him and having him in my life. I was sad to hear him go, but he is in a happier place now and at peace. I hope the best for your family.

SONIA AND FAMILY I WAS SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR LOSS GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU AT THIS TIME LOVE ALWAYS JUNE(BUBBA)

My deepest condolenses to you for the loss of your husband. Although I never had the pleasure of talking to you in a conversation besides the ocassional hello, I could see the love that you both had for each other every Sunday at mass. Although I never knew your names, it just broke my heart when father Jeffery mentioned the passing of Mr. Salazar, because right away I knew of who he was talking about since he wasn't there by your side. I can't imagine what you and your family must be feeling but know that he is in a better place now and he just couldn't wait til Christmas to be with Jesus and now he'll be there as a guardian angel watching you and your loved ones. Again my heartfelt condolenses.
