  • I would trade in all the bacon & egg, blueberry pancakes & camping trips to tulabi falls just to hear your laugh, see your huge smile & feel the love radiate through those big blue eyes..one more time. I miss you Daddy. Till we meet again.....love your querida - Posted by: Querida () on: Oct 28, 2013

  • My brother Greg knew Carlos before me and said Carlos could build stands for my Big Dish satellite company Superview. He always did a great job no matter the rush he always came thru, and I always enjoyed his jovial, caring and happy attitude. His personality was a treasure and I always enjoyed doing business with him, and more so his friendly disposition and the love he showed for people. I just found out when I searched his name to see if he could do some work for me...even this late... I still feel great loss knowing he is gone, and hope that his loved ones have come to accept his loss, but remember a wonderful father and man. - Posted by: Glenn McLachlan (Satellite Stand Customer but he was truly a Friend!) on: Jun 17, 2013

  • Carlos, our hearts are still in shock that you are gone. You were just like an angel on earth, seriously where were your wings! The one who cuts the grass on the blvd for 4 houses on each side. Thanks for the outdoor water spout you put in for us with your own material and wanted no money but we forced you to take it. Your genuine love for all you met. God bless your family and little Kristina. - Posted by: jason and pat (neighbours) on: Nov 14, 2012

  • Carlos... A buddy for life the first time I met him. A rare kind of funny that I can only describe as truly hilarious! I've never seen such wizardry in construction. I mean... the guy could cut complex angles with a circular saw, no safety guard IN MID AIR workbench not required for this guy! I saw you in your last few days Carlos. It seemed like you were more concerned about how my day was going. Imagine that... God bless Carlos! - Posted by: John Dowd (Back lane neighbor) on: Nov 02, 2012
