Hello Nancy and Mario. I am so sorry to hear of Emilio’s passing. He was always so kind and friendly to me and I enjoyed our conversations. He was always trying to convince me that we should have a Sole Brother’s clinic… he was in fact, a true Sole Brother. I will miss bumping into him and hope that all of you can embrace the memories that you have. His spirit will guide you forever. Take care. Love Mena.
