The world has lost a very special person Pa Letza. He always had a twinkle in his eye and a smile that could melt anyone’s heart. He was a kind and loving family man. When I was a child he touched my life in so many ways that I can’t even begin to count. I was lucky to have known him and blessed to be a part of the Letza family. I will always cherish the many memories I have of the Letza family. My heart goes out to the family at this difficult time, I’ll keep you in my prayers.

Love,
Sally Montemayor-Karas
