Good afternoon Ms Bell, I've been trying to get ahold of Mr Estrada and as the text messages above show, he has not responded to my attempts. I've also called him multiple times and he has only responded the first two times (same goes for text messages as well), after that he has not. My phone broke for about 4 days, I could not receive calls but text messages and emails did go through. My phone does now work and if you would like to contact me you can reach me at 928-278-3082. Let me know what steps we are taking from here! Thank you!
