This is Eligio (Lee) Velasquez a long lost TA primo and now summer resident in Ensenada. I learned yesterday from Fred Delgado of Jacobo’s passing. Never had the pleasure of meeting the man but heard many positive stories about him from Fred Delgado. May Jacobo Rest In Peace.

Dear Primos,
What a wonderful long life primo Jacobo had, Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years. Special mightiness indeed. May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart. I was also saddened to know that Barbara had died. ( I am Maria Suazo's grand daughter)

My condolence to the entire family. I am glad I got to visit with him a few months ago with him and Climaco. Doñia Rosa and family were my next door neighbor growing up with Riggie Climaco and all the family; wonderful memories. May the good Lord fill your hearts with peace and may His grace give you the strength to move beyond your pain. He is in Jesus loving arms. May he RIP
Your amigo and neighbor Manuel Trujillo

My Grampa built his home with love, and when I'm there I will always feel his presence along with the presence of all the ones we lost including my dad. He loved god and prayed every night, he never stopped enjoying life no matter what, he is the perfect example of how a life should be lived. I'll miss you Grampa, thank you for everything you've done for your us, we love you.
