My condolences go out to his family, He is gone but not forgotten. I worked along side Rolando Davila for 15 years @ The Sugar Mill, Role as we all new him by was one of my good friends and we got to spend a lot of time working alongside. I remember a time when we both had to go on a business trip to Arlington, TX and I clearly remember how Rolando was so excited because of course, Once there we were gonna go to AT&T stadium otherwise known as The Dallas Cowboys Stadium. I can remember him having me take pictures of him at different places around and about the Stadium. He was like a kid at a candy store, His eyes grew large with excitement, He was a True Dallas Cowboys Fan, a great friend and a family man who was always talking about his wife, kids, grandchildren and his roosters. You will be missed dearly friend, Your Friend Rodrigo "Rod" Rodriguez
