Sincere condolences to the Alvarez Family over the loss of a great man. I'm the daughter of Joe(Chema) & Carrie Valenzuela. I remember all the GREAT times we had at Aunt Vera & Uncle Benny's house for the 4th of July and then in later years,the party moved to Joe's house " on the hill". So many fun memories were made there! God Bless his family. He will be greatly missed.
