My name is MariaElena Rico, Carlos was my cousin, in our childhood we called him Carlitos.  Hes  always had a very special place in my heart. I remeber when we where kids he would invite me to go get tortillas together but once we where out and about he would tell me" you walk on THAT side of the street and I'll walk on THIS side" and once we'd get to the tortilla stand he would have me wait for him under the shade of a tree. We played together all the time, and loved eachother dearly. It pains me that he is no longer with us and that I was unable to be there during this difficult time, you have my deepest condolences. I will always have him as part of my most fondest memories.

Carlos, I will never forget you. You were an amazing man and you taught me so much. I’m grateful to have met you. You are the reason why I joined the choir and it will not be the same without you. I admired your dedication to worship God. Rain or shine you were there! Carlos I will miss you so much I still can’t believe you’re no longer here. It truly sadness me but I know you are in heaven. You did so much that I’m sure god received you with a smile. Thank you Carlos for loving me and Juanito. I will never forget you. You will always live in my heart.

COMPA,  you will truly be missed,  this picture reminds me alot of our many trips to the casino 🎰  where we both enjoyed very much,  because we loved to gamble.. and so many other memories you left behind,  always being there in all the  family gatherings for 48years, which i know you enjoyed very much.   loved you and will miss you! I'm  happy I got to spend time chitchatting with you 3 days before you left us.. may you RIP 🙏 love you compa.

Here in Las Vegas celebrating New Year’s.
Compa Carlos, Compa Elias and I are big fans of Little Joe. We were fortunate to run into him prior to his performance that night. All three of us loved dancing to Tejano music. We have beautiful memories. Going to see little Joe play at various venues. I’m going to miss you Compa RIP

Celebrating my Tia Sandra’s birthday. I remember all of us having a good time dancing ,laughing, and making happy memories. I’m gonna miss you Tio Carlos. I love you very much 💕
