Our hearts go out to the Gastelum family. I will always treasure the fond memories I have of Macario and his cheerful ways. He always had a smile on his face for my family and a warm hug. I will always remember him driving down 167th Street in his Lincoln and blasting the tamborazo music he so loved! May the music continue playing for you! We will miss you and may you rest in peace.
