My Uncle Lalo was a wonderful person, who always held my deepest love and respect. He always made time to sit and chat with me Sometimes I even felt that My own Dad was a little bit jealous of my regard for him. Even now I treasure his smile and calm inner strength coupled with his deeply religious outlook on life with all its ups and down that he faced and kept strong no matter what. I will never forget all his kindness and loving nature. He truly made a lasting impression on my life and I will always treasure him in my heart and my memories.

My fondest memories while growning up were whenever my Uncle Lalo was present. He was a wonderful person who always spoke kindly to everyone, and always made me feel special and loved. I think my Dad was even a little jealous of my affection for him. As one of my Mom's brothers he looked out for my family. Working for RCA he often showed up to repair our tv and stayed to visit, such a treat for us. Even today I remember his sweet smile long after he left us to head back to work or home. I send prayers for him and his family with alot of love. God speed Uncle Lalo.
