Prayers to all the family. I worked with Julian at Pep Boys. He was always there for everyone. I will always remember his kind worse and welcoming smile, along with a Pepsi in his hand. I will forever be grateful for knowing this wonderful man. He had a pure heart of Gold.

Julian was a Classmate 1966, and played a little on the Golden Hornet Football Team. I recently saw Julian when we were both voting in the state elections. We exchanged phone numbers and were going to get together. As we all know, time flies and we weren't able to get together. Now Julian is setting the table and waiting for us to join him in that special place. Our prayers are with the family and Friends at this time of loss. Tito And Barbara Montoya, Albuquerque.

I went to school with Julian and always thought highly of him because he was kind and respectful. I saw him and Esther in Española this past summer and my husband and I had a delightful visit with them. Julian loved Jesus so I know he is enjoying paradise! To all his family, I know it is painful to lose our loved ones but believers can rest in the promises of Our Lord that we will see Julian again. Peace and comfort to all of you. Luci(lle) Rodriguez Maestas EHS Class '66

Sister Esther,
You and your family are in my prayers. Pastor Johnson will always remain in a very special part of my heart. I was the first baby he dedicated at Templo Sion in Hernandez. He was always so loving and caring and always made time for me every time I saw him. He is now home with our Heavenly Father and will always be with us in our hearts. Thank you both for your unconditional love and for being such amazing examples of the Lord and His love. Sending lots of love and prayers.
Sincerely,
Renee Sandoval (Lovato)
