To the family of Edmundo Tefel Pasos,

I was heartbroken to hear about Don Mundo’s passing. It was obvious he was deeply loved and how much he meant to all of you. It was because of him that I was able to find my mom’s birth family, she looked for you her entire life and would have been overjoyed to meet her cousin. He immediately made me feel a part of the Tefel family and I truly regret that I never got the opportunity to meet him in person. I hope that one day we will have the opportunity to meet and I can learn more about my Tefel heritage made possible by Don Mundo. In the meantime, I pray that the Lord will hold you close in His comfort and peace during this time of sorrow. May you find strength in God’s promises and comfort in knowing that His love remains with you each day.

Please know that he and you are in my prayers, and I ask the Lord to give you strength, peace, and comfort in the days ahead. May His presence surround you and carry you through this loss.

With love, prayer, and my deepest condolences,
John
