To Lois and the extended Ontiveros family: Dan was not only a Dear Friend, from the old neighborhood, we also grew up as family members. Dan made me aware of his terminal illness along with the pain he had to endure. He made a tough choice of pain endurance while awaiting God to call him back Home; to rejoin his previously lost family members: Parents Felix and Louise, sister Dolly and Rev. Roy (Albert). My thoughts and prayers accompany him to his Eternal well deserved Rest in Heaven. May Eternal Light Shine Upon Them.

To the family of Mr. Daniel Ontiveros. I am so sorry for your loss. Mr. Ontiveros was blessed with 84 years of special mightiness. (Psalms 90:10) May your hearts be filled with joyful memories of time spent with him. I'm sure Mr. Ontiveros was looking forward to Gods promise at Psalms 46:8,9 where it says "God is making wars to cease to the extremity of the earth." May the Hearer of Prayer bring you strength and peace in your time of sorrow.
