Is a terrible act of violence and cowardness on the side of Francisco. Yvonne Janette Cocoba was my second cousin. Yvonne I am going to pray for you and I know that God will received you with his arms open. Francisco, I know where you going and that is not heaven.
May God Bless the family and Yvonne.
