To the Chavez family - I'm so sorry for the loss of your father, I didn't know him but our families have known each other for years starting off on 24th the street and through our school years from Crane (Paula) Yuma High (Joey, Sonya and Mark), softball games (Susie and Ralph) riding lessons (Nicky) and 4-H (Spooky).
I hope god gives your family the strength you will need to get though these hard times, God Bless you all.
