Mr.and Mrs. Sanchez and family,
We are saddened by the loss of Ruperto. He was such a nice person . Everytime he saw me he would give me a hug and kiss and ask how I was doing even though he was the one who was sick.
We will miss him more than you know as he was a big part of our family for 10 years.
