Our family never had the pleasure to meet Mr Honrada, but Maria has been very important part of family events in Illinois, Indiana and most importantly at Uncle Phil Greenslet’s celebration of life a few short years ago.

Through knowing Maria and reading about Mr Honrada, it is clear that he is part of “America’s Greatest Generation”. We wish the entire family a very happy celebration of life well lived.

Sincerely, Aunt Mary, Kevin, Jim, Steve, Mike, Nick, Maggie and Julie Watkins
