Going to miss our  neighbor a very humble man , lots of jokes and stories  RIP 🙏🏻

A memory that has always stuck with me has been seeing him at the commissary. Every time my family would go, my dad always bought him a coke and took it to him. He would always smile every time my dad gave him that coke and would always wave hi to us.  He was always happy to see us. He was a very genuine person and has left us with very many  memories through his lifetime. He will be greatly missed everyday. We love you always.

How I remember my uncle is as a very happy person he was always ready to make a joke out of anything and every situation. He was a very proud Vietnam Veteran,  always ready to talk to you about his experience in Vietnam.  He always carried pens in his shirt pocket. One thing he always did when I saw him was give me a light pinch on my nose. He will be greatly missed by all his friends and family. My condolences to my aunt and cousins. May he rest in peace 🙏 Prayers for our family.

A memory that always sticks with me about my dad was when I was young he used to take me to Fort Bliss/Beaumont cafeteria to eat. We would sit and eat while he would tell me about his time in the military. I would ask him a plethora of questions about the Army and about the Vietnam War. He would teach me many things about the Army, the ranks, and more. I was intrigued by his stories and admired him for his resilience after serving in one of the most awful wars. My dad enjoyed talking about his time in the Army and was extremely proud to have served. I love you and will miss you, Dad.

Raul was a very friendly person , he would talk to people he didn't  know. He would say anything to start a conversation  . One thing he loved to do was eating out. He probably knew every restaurant in El Paso.  Being a Veteran made him very proud. When he had a chance he would talk about it  . He will be missed by his family and friends.  My condolences to his wife , daughter s and grandkids.
