Dear Ms. Airish Caralde,
On behalf of our organization, the Initiatives for Dialogue and Empowerment through Alternative Legal Services, Inc. (IDEALS), we would like to extend our sincere condolences.

P.S. Mr. Bob Martin, thank you for providing this site. We hope that you could extend our message to the family of Mr. Celso Caralde.
I worked with Celso for about two years when he was in Iraq. He was fun to be with and always there to help out anyone in need. We all here have good memories with Celso. I and the rest of the guys here in Iraq would like to extend our deepest sympathy to the family.
“We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey”.
He is just a father who wanted to give the best for his family….. lets just pray for him and the family he left to surpass the pain and get over with the loss of their provider…WE EXPECT PRAYER…..COZ IN GOD NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.
MY CONDOLENCE TO THE FAMILY!
