Cousin, David Serritos, told me that Rudy was one of the 1st organizers to help with the Vasquez Family picnics in Grant Park. Being John and Teresa´s son, we attended many of those and will always cherish those memories. Thank you for sharing him and for him to help organize those events. God Bless - J.J. Vasquez

May the memories you have of your Husband, Father, and Grandfather be with you always. And may the love he gave so unconditionally continue to blossom within your hearts. May his memory be eternal, and may you find hope and strength during this time together. He was a very kind, respectful and hardworking soul. May his soul find peace with the Lord.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Murillo family at this sad time, especially Mrs Murillo.
Mr Murillo was the true example of a great man. He always spoke dearly of his family and greeted everyone with his smile. He will be forever in hearts and prayers.
John & Adriana Valtierra.
