For the Trujillo family, me and my family send our sympathy. Manjo was an awesome person to us. He always refered to my boy's as the chickenpox even when they became adults! He became part of our extended family, tienditas and fishing. His stories will live on in our family!

Manjo you will be greatly missed. You were an amazing man. I enjoyed all the time we got to spend with you & Marie in Yuma, and all the dice games we played. You can now play dice with my mama. Rest in Paradise. We love you!
