    Never a dull moment when I did manage to see you out when I’d visit Fremont. Your family’s home on Sandusky will always bring back fond memories from when we were kids and your dad would cut my hair. Rest in peace brother. Davey

    JR was a good guy. Everyone loved him for all the good reasons. We loved how he always made us laugh and easy to talk to, he was a free spirit and most surely one of a kind. Our deepest condolences to his wife and entire family. RIP brother you’ll never be forgotten. Always in our hearts, Manny and María Mendoza

    I only knew Jr. briefly from whirlpool, and I will always remember him by the big smile on his face. Viewing the memorial video it clearly shows how everyone loved Jr. and how much he clearly loved his family and friends. RIP my friend.

    Sorry for your loss ! I ran around with JR years ago when we worked at Whirlpool. Had not saw him for years, ran into him about a month ago at Kohls. Shot the breeze little bit. What a blessing it was !

    Sorry is never good enough when someone you love passes. I never know what to say, except I love you all. A few years back I was able to have a conversation with Jr. that caught us up on many things from our May St. years and I could tell he was happy. ❤️
