Linda Martinez published a tribute .

This man had the gift of making people feel needed and important. He was a devout Christian and often gave words of wisdom, comfort and prayer. It breaks my heart to lose an important man in my life. But it brings me comfort knowing he has completed his journey and is with our Heavenly Father, free to rest and enjoy paradise. Gracias Mr. Sanchez for allowing me to be a small art of your life.
