Although I never met Jose, I knew of him through discussions with Veronica who is life-long friends with my wife Maritza. It was easy to feel the Love Veronica had for her Dad - and can only add that he clearly must have been very proud to be Veronica's Dad. Veronica, our prayers are with you and your family..... John, Maritza & "Kids"

In rememberance of Joe. You told many stories and kept me entertained. From your travels to drinking stories. Always kept a smile in good and bad times. You always were given the red carpet treatment. You will be gone but never forgotten. I was supposed to give you highlights in you hair. You still would have looked good bald...lolz...See you in our next live,put in a good word for me with the big guy upstairs....
