    To the Mario R Villarreal Family,
    Your loss is amazingly great, to big to comprehend or measure.
    I met Mario in late 1986 and found out he was a good man but also an exceptional business man.
    A heart of gold, a million dollar smile and was willing to always help in anyway he could for anyone.
    Thanks for all the memories you shared with my family and so many people that passed your path.
    Sandra Whitman & Family
