Rene's groomsmen include Moises Padilla (the Best Man), his little
brother; Joe Padilla, his oldest cousin; and Jared Bridge, his future
brother-in-law. And introducing Gabriel Perry as the junior groomsman.
MOISES PADILLA Moises is Rene's little brother, his "young apprentice". He is a senior business major at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln, graduating May 2010. He shares Rene's passion for soccer and jeeps. "I am very proud to have an exemplary role model, my big brother," he says. JOE PADILLA Joe Padilla is the oldest of Rene's immediate cousins. He was there since the day Rene was born and always called him his little brother. (In fact, Rene's mother claims at times that Joe is her oldest son, hehe). His first passion at a young age was running as he competed all through High School in El Paso, TX, then later at the collegiate level. He now is the Director of Operations for Call Me, Inc. in the state of Washington, heading the Pacific Northwest market developments for AT&T. JARED BRIDGE Jared is the younger brother of Deanna. He is a student at Towson University, majoring in Exercise Science with hopes of obtaining a Doctorate in Physical Therapy. Jared's hobbies include learning about fitness and nutrition, weight lifting, and following the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jared and Rene met in 2006 at a family dinner. They've been inseparable since then... By "inseparable", we mean forced to be roommates. GABRIEL PERRY Gabriel is a 9 yr old fourth grader who loves Star Wars and LEGO... or better yet, Star Wars LEGOS! Every soccer ball Gabriel has ever owned was a gift from Rene... (or as Gabriel calls him, Mr. Paco) Gabriel has played for six seasons now, and he even got to see his first professional game with Rene and Deanna (DC United vs. LA Galaxy at RFK Stadium) in the summer of 2008. |   Joe  Jared  Gabriel |
