Eusebio enjoyed taking trips to Alaska where he fished out in the ocean. He also enjoyed classic cars, John Wayne movies, boxing, and football and he had an extreme amount of love and compassion for his pets. He loved his pets so much that he would take the time to cook 80/20 ground beef with seasoning for his pets to enjoy daily.

A special thank you to the El Sendero Church, Pastor Mike Alvarado Jr., extended family and friends for your support, kindness and gratitude during our time of grief. Words can't express the heartfelt gestures that were received.
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to rend, and a time to sew; A time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; A time of war and a time of peace. -Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
