He married Juanita Silva on December 16, 1956. My dad and mom were married for 62 years. They migrated to Riverside, California in 1961. He worked in agriculture for over 40 years and formed many lasting relationships.
He was a very loving and devoted family man. He cherished spending time with all his loved ones and had many friends. He was a man of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
