bro & sis roca are my dear friend’s and i love them and there family they all are wonderful people!!sis roca will be missed deeply..
This husband and wife are missionaries to Cuba. They dedicated their lives to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a communist Cuba. This is a very sad situation but God is still in control and what may seem as confusing to many we can rest in that Peace that Passes all Understanding. May God be with this dear family and extended families!
