Over the years I have been told that one of my weaknesses is my loyalty to friends and family. Well, if that's a weakness, then I am very weak, but rarely wrong in my choices of friends. I blame them, because they helped make me what I am, and I love every single one of you like a brother or sister.
To those who have passed on, Randy Lance, Rodney Rogers, Euphrates Hill, Jeff Warner, Rudy Gallegos, Tom Hubbs, Marvin Massaro, Bobby Pacheco, Uncle Danny (would never tell me his last name, just Uncle Danny), Gordon Raigoza and to those I forget, sorry I am getting old and the fog of time is thick. I just want to say thank you and I do miss you all. Our time together was rich and I love you all.
To all you old farts I grew up with, Elalio Omar, Hector Omar, James Baker, David Baker, Glen Owens, Tony Verdugo, Paul Villegas, Doug (Cricket) Williams, Sammie Lee Moore, Tim Jones, Mark Jones, Billy (Weasel) Martinez, George Rivera, Acquina Rogers, Lisa Lobel, Tammy Carter, Patty Ernst, Nancy Ernst, Jeff Collins, Jeff Sutton, Brett Bennett, Mark Archuleta, George Gallegos, Josie Gallegos, Billy Hegler, Debbie Mayo, Donna Wojtyla, Debbie Wojtyla, Steve Villegas, Lonnie Blackburn, Larry Santistevan, Eloy Vigil - my oldest friend and still my compadre, George Rivera, Tim O'Gane, Gary Schritter, Cliff Brice III, Leon Bayha, Sherry Wood, Tammy Carter, Mark Medina, Karl Bernal, Pat Bernal... wow, this list can go on forever.
Basically, if you are not here, sorry, the fog of time again or if you're like Gerald Garber - buddy, I owe you one - punch and I may forgive, but I do not forget. I trust my friends and when one stabs me or rips me off, oh well, I owe you one, buddy. We will meet again somewhere, sometime.
I tip my hat to you all. Thank you and God Bless all of you.
