Uncle Tony, my Nino Ray Bargas, and my dad, Dan Martín met when they served in the Navy during Vietnam. Even though my dad and Nino were from California, the three of them made a bond that lasted over 52 years. When I was 9 years old, my dad moved us to Texas. Uncle Tony and Tia Aurelia opened their home to us. Me, my sister, and brother always felt loved and welcomed. Uncle Tony and Tia Aurelia never made us feel like we were a burden. They always hoped for the best for us. When we moved back to California, Uncle Tony stayed closed to my dad between calls, cards and visits. We send sincere condolences to Tia Aurelia, Roland, Veronica, and the family. We love you Uncle Tony.
