Not sure what to say?





December 2, 2012

I just found out the other day that Carlos passed and I at first was shocked then sad. My older sister, Julie, and I grew up with Carlos. Julie and Carlos dated and I was the third wheel, but both of them did not mind-we were only 14 ;). We saw him and his best buddy Peter just about every single day for years. The stories and fun we had is endless and he was a big part of my childhood.

I still remember the letters he wrote to me when he was in the army. I advised him not to join! I was 17 living with my grandmother and we came up with a plan. I am glad it all turned out but I still laugh at how, well... "not so bright" we are as kids growing up in the neighborhood. Even though he and my sister were an "item" ;) - he treated me like a sister and always treated me with kindness, always.

I last saw him when I was 21 and then lost touch after I graduated college. I would think from him time to time. He was always kind, honest and sensitive to others. I am so sorry for his family. His wife was blessed to have Carlos as a husband and I know he must have been a wonderful dad. Carlos, I am so sorry that you suffered and passed, so sorry. Loving friend, Laurina (Menard street in Chicago, IL)

Dear Jonee, Ava and the entire Infante Family,

I am so very sorry for your loss and am thinking of you all with a heavy heart during this sad time.

Carlos cleary had a great love for all of you and a real desire to be here for his wife and daughter. He worked hard to squeeze in as much living as he possibly could in the face of a very difficult illness.

He was a wonderful example to me of just how precious life is and how important it is to embrace every moment we have with those we love.

Jonee, I am only a phone call away and would be happy to visit with you when the dust settles. You are a wonderful mom and your devotion to Carlos was a beautiful thing to see.

I thank you, Jonee, Carlos and Ava for the opportunity to know you and work with you during this sad and difficult time.

My deepest sympathy,

Deb Rigoni
