I was saddened to hear the loss of your beloved husband whom I trusted and I admired during our tour on board the USS Kalamazoo. He was well respected by his superiors and peers alike.He is a genuine friend. My thought and prayers for him and to the entire Antolin family that he is now with our Dear Lord. My wife, Dora and I just came back last Easter coming from New York when I heard the news to one of the Fernandez family friend. Again, accept our deepest condolence!
With our prayers,

Ron and the Antolin family,
I offer my condolences in this moment of great sorrow. Losing a family member is not easy, to cope with, however, his memory will live on through the people that love him the most. I personally have walked this path and know this is not an easy to go through. Uncle Rudy was a wonderful person and will be sadly missed by all who knew him. May God bless and comfort you and your family.
