Minerva and family, Please accept our most sincere condolences on your great loss of our Primo Lupe. We will always remember him as the one that looked like our Dad, Oscar B. Garza. During our childhood I remember Lupe as a kind-hearted and gentle-soul young man. I remember our Dad used to tell me that Lupe would one day be a major league baseball player because he loved baseball, And how he would cross Zacate Creek everyday to attend mass at Guadalupe Church, As we grew up we lost track of most of our relatives as we pursued our careers and raised our families. So much for the good memories. My brother, Jorge "GAR" Garza and I are experiencing some health issues that limit our mobility thus prohibiting us from being with you all at the services. El Primo Lupe and your family will be in our prayers. Vaya con Dios, Primo.
