Ale y Rolis No existen palabras para los que hemos pasado por esto. Siempre se sigue extrañando, solo se aprende a vivir sin su presencia física. Se batalla pero uno aprende. Todavía levanto el teléfono, esperando que me conteste. No es fácil. Siempre están en nuestros corazones. Siempre presentes nuestros papás. Ale chula, te mando un abrazo apretado con todo mi corazón. Mis condolencias para toda la familia. Alejandro y Loreily Sanchez Viesca
