Tio Andreas, we will miss your smile and all yours jokes, just to make us smile. The simple things in life made you happy but inside you love your family and were so, proud of them. You will be missed but I guess God needed a BBQ man with a laugh and smile with him. We love you and will truly miss you! May God bless your family and comfort them with peace that, only you can give.

My sincere condolences to all the Leal family. Raúl, this is Mrs. Romero (your teacher quite some years ago). I will be praying for you and all your family that the good Lord gives you peace and comfort during this very difficult time. My husband (who just passed away in May) and I often talked to your dad at Whataburger at breakfast. He will be dearly missed by the many of us that knew him. May he Rest In Peace ✝️

My condolences to Irma, Claudia, and Raul for your loss. Andres was a great friend and co-worker. He always had a joke or two to cheer you up. Although he is no longer with us, the memories he leaves behind will forever be in our hearts. May you Rest In Peace my brother.

 

Manuel Ramos posted on 9/1/21

From the first day that we were able to wonder around our homes we met and became friends throughout adulthood. I never had another friend as close to each other as we wondered happily through our youth. Loved every minute of it and I know that you did too. From La Plomeria to the river...from el Pozo to visit las ciete iglesias, we always did it together. I will miss you, but we'll see each other again soon. Wish I had the smarts to say more, but I know that you will understand. To your family I wish them the strength that God can give to help heal them. Have faith and God Bless you. Your Friend, Manuel (Manolo) Ramos

Thank you for being a great employee, great worker, friend, and someone you can count on. I appreciated so much that you lend your hand to help me with the extinguishers last week.

My condolences to the Leal family. I met Andres at Lulac’s in the 70’s. He was a good person, always had a smile on his face. We ran into each other quite a few times at the Heb Plus. He’s gone but he will not be forgotten. May he RIP.
