All my childhood memories are around the Salas brothers. I remember meeting Orlando for the first time as he was new to Somerset elementary and we became fast friends. He would invite me to their family outings like the Fiesta Carnival or Roller Skating. I remember one day Mr. Salas took us Roller Skating and it was my first time so I was very careful not to fall. Orlando and Aaron took me to the middle of the rink with care and I was thinking to myself, what good friends, but they were actually aiming me towards a line of girls and pushed me in their direction. I was screaming to the girls to move because I didn't know how to stop. Then I crashed into these girls and some fell on top of me. As I turned to see Orlando and Aaron, they were both laughing their heads off....When I heard the news about Orlando's passing, I come to realize how fragile life is, that we all should live life to the fullest and how precious memories are. Thank you to the Salas family for all the precious memories and to Orlando. May you rest in peace and one day we'll see each other in the big Roller Skating rink in heaven.
Your friend forever,

I didn't know Orlando very long but he was a funny person. Always ready to tell a joke! He had a good sense of humor! He was also a damned good painter because he painted my bedroom for me a few years ago!! I also know that he was a coin collector as he and his younger sister Zuezette would spend alot of time analyzing their coin collection! R.i.p. my friend and sleep with the angels! Say hello to my brother for me and my grandma too
Orlando was my Big Brother. I loved him so much. When we were young he used to pick on me all the time. He would tie me to trees and let the cows lick me. When "WE" would swim in the pond in the back he would put me on his back and take me to the deep and dunk me under even though i didnt know how to swim. We would come out all orange from the clay. I learned quickly to stay on my toes. Even through all that I remember when he was going to have his son Orlando Jr and he moved in with his then girlfriend Mary Esther I remember crying in my room please don't take my big brother please don't take my big brother. I felt like that the day of his accident like a child again in my room crying please don't take my big brother please don't take my big brother. Love always your Little sister Moni
