WACO, TX Thursday, December 6, 2018 My love and condolences to the family of Lupe Fuentes. My heart is saddened by the loss of this good man. He indeed loved tinkering with his lawnmowers and and I remember sitting in his living room with him many times, watching his Dallas Cowboys play ball. He loved a good laugh. To Robert,Rudy,Jackie,Nicole and the rest of the family- my prayers are with you all. RIP Lupe! You will be missed.
