    My husband, Joaquin, Jr., (Corky), would tell tales of his scary older brother, Nelo. But the brother I met and knew was always gracious, a kind and loving man. He had a very gentle smile under that impressive moustache. He had a wonderful sense of humor, loving to laugh with his family about the family. In fact, he was the most wonderful teller of tales that I had ever heard. He would talk about the Bustoz family as they were growing up and his brothers and sister would interject, “You did WHAT?” “I never knew THAT!” I wish I had captured every word. Maureen
