Magdaleno Rose-Avila is in our hearts and minds. An example to me back in the early ‘70’s when he was leading a lettuce strike of farmworkers in Center, Colorado – organizing moments that were part of deciding how I would use the rest of my life.

Sending the fullest of our spirit and energy and caring his way.
