Dearest Jimmy, God needed you in Heaven to care for all of us who love you. I will miss seeing your beautiful smile and calling me “La Grandota”. Watch over your beautiful family and if you have a chance add me too. You will be sorely missed.

My deepest condolences to the Orfila Family; I never had met Mr Orfila but I got to know about Him from Santiago Orfila; often times Santiago will share the time that he spent with his father and I learned about His love for His family and how he was always giving advice to Santiago on how to be a better person. I pray to the Lord that He will give you the peace and strength to endure the passing of Mr. Orfila.
