My deepest condolences to my cousins and all who were close to Domingo. I will never forget that one Thanksgiving where he had us watch the movie Gandhi. He always wanted to keep us grounded and teach us the power of unity. His thoughtfulness will never be forgotten. RIP Tío
May you Rest in Peace, Mingo. I have many memories of our childhood, walking through the rain, bitter cold and muddy roads from Rancho Los Sauces, just to get to the school bus stop on boca chica highway. Few of us broke out of that vicious cycle and I always felt well earned respect and admiration towards you. May God welcome you into his kingdom and grant you everlasting life. Vaya con Dios, amigo..

A true advocate for the less fortunate in our community. I had the privilege to work with him in several organizations and he was always fighting to improve the the system. He was very effective with his mild mannered way of speaking. A true champion, will not be forgotten.
