Estimada Sunsi y sobrinos:
No pude conocerlo personalmente. Esto me causa enorme pena.
Fue un paradigma a seguir. Ejemplo de esposo, padre, abuelo, hermano tio.
Siempre permanecerá eternamente en mi corazón.
Tengo guardados 14 años de correspondencia nuestra impresa, en memoria a toda su sabiduria, que siempre tendrá vigencia para nosotros.
Tu cuñada que los quiere.
Dolores Vila y familia.
