Our hearts are broken at the loss of our next door neighbor, Jorge. We were blessed to have he and Minnie as our neighbors and friends. We’ll always treasure the times we met at the fence, and especially our meals and visits together. We’ll also always look across our fence and into his front yard and visualize him there mowing grass. He and Minnie are God’s blessings to us. Our life won’t be the same without him. Praying for God’s comfort for Minnie and family as they face these difficult times. We’ll always be there for you.
Well George, I will pray for you, I will pray that you find your way to see Jesus but I know that you will find it without any problem, just do what you did down here…and if you have a little time put in a word for me…I know that it will be a good reference because I know you loved me as I loved you in life…

We are very sorry for your loss. Jorge was a nice man and good neighbor. I will always remember talking to him and laughing when we had our New Years day parties. You and your family are in our prayers and thoughts.
We just found out of Jorge’s passing from a classmate. On behalf of the Martin High School Class of 1957 we send our condolences to the family. He was a good friend & we have many good memories of him while we were in high school. I also knew his brother and sister since we lived in the neighborhood. We will post his picture and obit in our Class Website in a few days. (www.mhsclassof57.org) Our thoughts and prayers are with all his family. With love, Norma Ramirez Salinas
