Bertita, my and Mary Fran's condolences on the passing of Francis. When I heard of his passing my mind was flooded with images of Francis, a Pioneer in New Mexico Bilingual Education, my most able assistant when I was Superintendent at Questa, a fishing buddy and a loyal, trusted friend. Francis was a gentle man who will be missed by many. Francis' humor will never be duplicated but will be cherished by many. FRANCIS, thanks for the memories. RIP.

Father, you had a great adventure of a life and the only thing I ever saw you scared of was of not having any more adventures. May God keep you safe and may you have more adventures in the next life. Love you, Mambitos.?
