and David (preceded in death by sister Sandra) His children Joseph Pando and Barbara Smith. He leaves behind a large family that loved him very much Including many Nieces, Nephews, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and many Friends. He grew up in Rosemead California. He joined the Army and lived in Germany for a bit. He always said this experience taught him so much about life. He had a love of cars and carried this his entire adult life. He learned early on from his Father how to fix and kind of problem with a car. He loved helping others with repairs, but he shared the gift and taught others that they could learn just as easy. He was always willing to help if you were in a jam. He was a Teamster for over 25 years in Las Vegas Nevada. He loved his job. He was an all-around Convention Teamster meaning there wasn't any task asked of him that he couldn't do. He shared many stories of his Teamster Family some of Love and some of how they drove him freaking Crazy, but he still considered them Family. He was a person who could be your Friend or your Foe that depended on you and what kind of mood he was in... Lol When he was diagnosed it hit for a minute, he cried, he laughed, cracked jokes made his Bucket List and said I'm going to live the rest of my days doing whatever the (cuss word) I want. I'm going to do this my way. Rest in Paradise Brother you are Forever missed ♥
