I would like to give my condolences to the family and close friends of this great man. Even though we have not kept in touch for many years the memories of 4th grade all the way to 9th grade will always stay with me. I remember when we got chased out of the dollar theater near his home and watching the Bulls and Michael Jordan make history. You will be missed brother.

Cuando nuestros seres amados parten, pasan de vivir con nosotros a vivir en nosotros. No hay palabras que los pueda reconfortar en su inmenso dolor, solo la Fe en Dios Nuestro Seor, Su hijo esta junto a Dios, descansando, solo se Adelanto en el camino que todos vamos a recorrer algun dia. Mis oraciones para que Dios les de una pronta resignacion. Sinceramente comparto su dolor. " Yo te recordare no por la forma en que te fuiste, sino por la forma en que viviste y como cambiaste mi vida, Gracias por llegar a mi, ahora eres mi Angel"

Chino was such an amazing man. He was a great father in law to my daughter Jadyn. There are no word that can describe how deeply sadden I am for his family, especially Tina, his kids and our grandson who was the light of his life. I will do the best I can to remind Camden how much he was truly loved by his pop pop! Rest easy Chino, we love you and you will forever be missed.
