I had the pleasure of meeting Junior only twice. He was very welcoming, and had funny stories to tell. But the stories from others about Junior were legendary! Every person that entered his home was treated as a friend. The best thing about Junior was the beautiful family he created with Linda. Each son and daughter so kind and generous. Am grateful for him and the wonderful family he helped to create. Much love to Linda and their amazing children
