    There are no words to express how much my Tio Lalo is missed. My dad - Nico misses him daily, his brother misses him dearly. Life is different. We think about him all the time.

    I think about my uncle very often but tonight I decided to write to him. I love you and think about your very often Tio Lalo. Your brother Nico misses you so much - I see it in his eyes. I hope you know how much we pray and think about you. Your brother, my dad, misses you so much because you were his best friend. We visit you often and know life is not the same. Until we meet again...

    I worked with Hilario for several years at Zurn. He was always so very nice. We both then ran into each other again and he mowed mine and my mom´s yard and Hilario let me know he knew my brother. I´m so sad to hear of his passing. He was such a hard working man and so very kind. He will be missed by our family. Hurts my heart that we won´t see his happy face in town.

    I am so sorry to see that Hilario has passed away. He was such a blessing to our dad Paul and to Linda. He kept Daddy going by taking him to the farm. We are forever thankful for his kindness to our family.

    I'm very sorry for your families loss. He was a hard working man an did anything to help anyone. He would always talk about having a farm one day. So did my brother. May they both rest in peace. 😪

    My heart hurts for y’all’s family, I sure will miss seeing him on my route mowing lawns. He was always so respectful and would turn the mower off when I was delivering mail or packages. Please let me know if y’all need anything. Praying for y’all during this hard time.
