Dear Family and Friends:
I write to inform you of my father's passing. On June 15, 2004, at 4 a.m.,
with my mother at his side, he took his last breath.
Funeral arrangements are:

Grave-side service: 2:30 p.m.
Both the viewing and the funeral will be held at Bunkers Mortuary, 925 Las
Vegas Blvd. N. (across the street from Cashman field). In lieu of flowers,
my family would appreciate donations to off-set funeral costs.
For individuals needing a place to stay, my place of employment (VEGAS.com)
has been kind enough to provide people with great rates for Sunday, Monday
and Tuesday. The hotel is called Emerald Quarter Suites (4777 Cameron Dr.)
Please call 888-719-4040 and tell the travel service agent that you are with
Felix Avendano's funeral. The discount rate is $29.95 per night per room.
Phone calls and visits are welcomed. Phone calls can be made directly to my
cell at 580-6919. Visits are welcomed at my parent's home, 6222 Foothill
Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89118. However, with that said, please call first :-)
We thank you all for you care, affection, thoughts and prayers.
With Love,
Ramon (on behalf of the Avendano Family)

What a great man your father was. Although I knew him only for a short time in this side, I plan to spend decades with him on the other. His gentle smile warmed my soul and when he spoke, he comforted me. I can only picture how happy he is now with the master. Ramon, your family is deeply cherished and you are loved. Please remind you and your family this often. Send your mom my love.

Ramon, I've been reading your blog for quite some time, and I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am about your father. He is in a better place now, but I know how hard it is to lose a loved one. You and your family are in my prayers.

Primo, deepest condolences. I apologize for not being able to make the trip out there for my tio's services. My dad mentioned how many Avendano's were present. He had not seen family from that side for a long time. Keep strong willed and I'll see you some day. Con Carino, Tu Primo from Cali,
Jesse, Estela, Joseph and little Adrian
