where he worked in agriculture. Soon after he met Josephine Burciago and they

were married on March 8, 1968 and went on to raise six children together. In

Oklahoma Paper Mill and the Santa Fe Railroad. In 1975, Juan accepted a position

Juan’s family and his faith were the two most important things in his life.
