Photos of my dad (center) and his two brothers – Lorenzo and Felix – from my Day of the Dead altar.
Today is Veterans Day.
It’s a work holiday for my office. I decided to stay at home today and take down my Day of the Dead altars. While I was dismantling and gathering all the photos, I put aside the ones of my dad and his brothers in their military uniforms.
The Zuniga Brothers…Praxedis, Lorenzo and Felix….
All the Zuniga men were Veterans. All so handsome. All so ready to serve in some capacity. Today I reflected on these photos and those that my extended Zuniga family posted on social media. Today I took some time to reflect upon their sacrifice for our freedom.
Thank you dad, Uncle Lencho and Uncle Felix…so proud of you all.
My dad…Praxedis Sotelo Zuniga
