Condolence: I worked with Juan at MCC for a long time, and he was one of the kindest people I have met, anywhere. Always ready with a joke and a smile--Juan simply brightened anyone's day. I send my sympathy to all who loved him. Lori Watts

Condolence: May God grant you his strength through this time through the prayers of saints. When I first began teaching at MCC in 1999 Juan was very helpful and encouraging to me. Jeff Taylor

Condolence: I attended MCC over 25 years ago and I remember Dr. Mercado well. He was my favorite professor at MCC...he made the class fun, and I always looked forward to his lectures. He spoke fondly his wife and daughters in class and I knew he loved them dearly. Thankful for his honorable service to our country.... My sincerest condolences to his family.

Condolence: Dear Esther, Violeta,and Connie My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Blessings from Germany. Bonnie Sims
