Sad News
I just received word that Steve Gomez passed away this morning. This was not unexpected as he has been very ill for a very long time, but our hearts go out to his wife Sherrie and everyone who held him dear -- I am certain that encompasses a very large group of locals.
Update 1/31: there is a "visitation" at the the catholic church in Port Isabel from 5 to 7 today; then a rosary at 7. Tomorrow at 2 pm is a funeral mass and then a get together to celebrate Steve at their house/office on Corral.

Why the Lord called his name way too early we'll never know. But we know his faults have been washed away by gentle waves upon the sand and his virtues have been written upon the tablets of love and memory and within our hearts forever more. Back in the day at Hanna High School he was always the definition of cool in my eyes; he will always remain that wild and crazy guy in my memories!
