Hi all,

Here is the link to Jose's obituary: https://www.greencremationtexas.com/obit/jose-angel-hernandez/

A memorial mass is happening tomorrow morning in Austin and the family is planning a celebration of life sometime later this spring.

I added to the recipient list above incase we missed telling anyone in the Winedale community. I'm sorry if this is the first time you are seeing this sad news.

Much love,
Madge

As one who was privileged to have participated in a few if David and 
Jose's late-night (well, alright, all-night) seances, I can attest to 
everything he wrote in the second paragraph, and most of us know the 
truth of the first. In the last year and a half, Jose and I would get 
on text "benders", rambling on about the greatness of this or that 
great film or scene, until the other participants of the thread had to 
tell us to shut-up and we had to get our own personal thread. I still 
have it with David, but it's silent now.

Everything that reminds me of him, and there are so many things that 
trigger random memories, make me miss him so very much. This has been 
a sad, sad week, and it's only Tuesday.

Thank you, David, for the good words in his memory. He richly deserves them.

All my love,

John
