Abraham Quintanilla, dead at 86
I wasn't expecting this and I almost wonder if now that he has passed if Chris Perez can be more open about everything. A part of me thinks he's been hiding a lot of secrets.
Maybe not, but I feel that family was harboring a lot. I know Yolanda is laughing it up in prison for sure.
