Juan was a devout catholic and rejoiced in praising God through prayer. In his younger years he was an aficionado of the art of bullfighting.
He enjoyed his occupation in construction from a very young age. Juan was the preferred foreman in large commercial construction sites for Adams Brothers, a company he worked with for over forty years.
He was very well respected by all who knew and worked with him. "Buelo" always had a story, "dicho", or joke to tell, and enjoyed having fun with his family.
Our family has much gratitude for Dr. Ronaldo Factoriza and his staff for their many years of dependable health service. We also appreciate the professional and compassionate care our father received by many staff members at Alta Vista Rehabilitation and Healthcare.
