I have known Gilbert and Lupe since I was a kid when they were members of St. John Lutheran Church. Lupe always was such a pretty, sweet lady and I know the family will miss her. Gilbert, my prayers are with you and all of your family. God bless all of you at this time of your loss.
Mrs. Saldana was one of our mother’s best friends, growing up in Beaumont our memories as youngsters are good memories of visiting her and Mr. Saldana. Always welcoming us into their home. Our sincerest condolences to the Saldana family from the Rodriguez family. Our parents were Josephine and Jesse Rodriguez. God bless her for the all the love she shared with everyone and the lives she touched. The Rodriguez family, Jesse Jr, David, Imelda, Nelda, and Sylvia.
Johnece, thank you for the care that you gave both of my parents over the years. They always said that if something was wrong that the first thing they were going to do was to call Johnece. It gave me great comfort knowing that they were in you and Dr. Ray’s hands.
Sincere thanks,
Andy
Deepest sympathies and prayers for the entire family.
Lupe was special in my heart. I was blessed to be her nurse for many years ❤️ and she was always a blessing to me. Mr. Gilbert I pray for you. Love you
