I knew Felipe in grad school...not well but well enough to know he was a great guy! I have only nice things to say about him...Always enjoyed talking with him about Argentina and soccer..He sent me a Christmas card a few years after Georgetown... I was surprised he had my address...his cousin Pavlos on the other hand...

I am sorry his father keeps getting into trouble...Felipe hasn’t had the easiest time as Royal...his sister what a number...his sister in law killed herself
