12 Dec 2021I am so sad to hear about zol. I have been telling my family and my husband I haven’t seen or heard anything from zol and even more strangely had not noticed any activity of him being active on Facebook and I just am finding out he passed away. I’m very broken hearted to hear this as Zol was a very dear friend to me. I have found memories of him and his obituary describes his character to a T. His picking on you was his way of telling you that you were a special person in his life. I first met zol back in 2008 or 2009. He was working at memorial hospital at that time and I was looking for a roommate or a place to rent needing a roommate and zol being the kind soul he was opened his home to me and helped me through a very difficult time in my life. I used to help look after his daughter lily while he went to work at memorial hospital. I at that time had met his brother chuck and got to know him as well and those 2 guys are and will always be dear close friends and I will never forget their kindness and upbeat nature. I am so sorry for the loss of both your sons mr and mrs Chavez, and to the rest of the family my heart goes out to you all.
