I first met Julian several years ago, quick witted, one of the funniest people I have had the pleasure of meeting. He was a really good person. He was my RCIA teacher he made learning easy and interesting, his wife Sherry was my sponsor. My thoughts and prayers are being sent.

Lots of fun memories as a kid hanging around Cisco. A great cousin and a bit mischievous, but always fun to watch Mom fuss around him to us young kids. We always loved listening to his jokes and stories and seeing Mom would say. She always smiled and told him that we were all in trouble. I think Mom loved the challenge as much as all of us kids. Cisco will be missed greatly. RIP cousin.
