Mr. Aguilar was one of the most wonderful persons I have ever met. He knew so much about politics, campaigning and current events. What I remember most about Mr. Aguilar is that he was a wonderful husband, father and grandfather. Nothing meant more to him than his family. Thank you, Mr. Aguilar, for being such an excellent mentor and example to me and everyone who knew you. You and your wife made me feel like a member of your family, and I will love you both forever. Rest in peace, my dear friend.

Mr. Aguilar,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army in Korea fighting the communist North Koreans and Chinese. Because of you and your fellow Servicemen, millions of South Koreans were able to live in peace and freedom and make their country one of the most prosperous and industrious of the Free World. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
