JJ was a good friend. I’ll never forget his playing in the football game against Breckinridge. They got their ass kicked good. When I would visit Brownsville, I would see him during Charro Days, the Freddy Gomez Conjunto fest or other Longhorn functions. Anyway, he is now in the hands of God. My condolences go out to Pat and all his family. May he Rest In Peace.
My sincere condolences to Pat and Saenz family. JJ was a good friend and will be missed.
Rest in peace.
A very sad day when I was notified of my close friend’s passing. JJ & I had some happy and memorable times. Going to Dallas Cowboys games, walking from Brownsville to the Virgin of San Juan Shrine, San Juan Tx to celebrate the Cowboys back to back Super Bowl wins back in the 90’s. Our picture in front of the Shrine appeared in the Dallas Cowboys magazine delivered all over the world to Cowboys fans. Will miss you brother. Due to illness in the family we were unable to attend the services. Love to all & God Bless
