Thank you, and to Kevin Wirley and family I am very sorry for your loss. I remember Bridget and I am sad and shocked to hear the news of her passing.  My condolences, thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Cinco de Mayo was first celebrated in the United States in Southern California in 1863 as a show of solidarity with Mexico against French rule.
