To My Balderas Brethren from the Campos Clan in Minnesota.
I cannot be there to console you in person, but please believe that I have you in my prayers and thoughts during this time. I truly believe that Frank is with our Savior and he feels no pain and is walking with our Tio and Tia in Heaven. I only have fond memories of my cousin and will share when ever possible. God Bless him!
