To the Entire Carrillo Family:
I am deeply sorry for your loss. I have a million great memories about Uncle Manuel. Lisa Gonzales would always take me by your house for a visit. His funny, sweet and stylish sense of humor will never be forgotten. I'm sorry that I missed the funeral services, but, I just saw them in the paper today. I hope all of you are doing well, and I hope that Mrs. Carrillo is doing well. I will probably see you at the East Side Mall from time to time. GOD BLESS EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU... YOU ARE IN MY PRAYERS.
All my love
Pam Skowronski (Jagielski)

Carrillo Family,
My dad and I send all of you our deepest sympathy.
I'll never forget all the good times I had growing up in South Deering with Uncle Manuel and all of you. Uncle Manuel was such a character, outgoing and friendly with a little bit of that good 'ol craziness. He always put on such a great 4th of July fireworks display and always had enough for everyone who was there. I'm sure there are glorious "fireworks" up in heaven welcoming him home.
May it comfort you to know that Uncle Manuel is in the presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. May God give you the strength to endure and may His peace envelop you.
We will keep all of you in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless you.
Cristina & Sergio Arias
HIS MERCY ENDURES FOREVER!
