The trip to this road was harder than shutes and ladders. the endurance is more than any animal can endure. Legacy is what one hopes for. Legacy is not image, its not characteristics, speach but legacy is what we leave behind. (BEHIND IS WHAT WE DWELL ON TO ACHEIVE TO MOVE FORWARD). Forward is a new chapter in our lives and unfortunatly you dont take part any more but your essance is still with me. Your material items dont have your aroma any more but I can still smell you (in a good way). You'll always be here for me no matter how many bottles I have to drink in searching for you. Happy Birthday. Love always from the Warrior Prince to the renowned Warrior King Your Brother, Luis

You say if you could fly,you'd never come back down. You only have eyes for that blue, blue sky. You're yet to learn what sadness is. And are you just now grasping what pain is like! Even the feeling I have for you must be expressed with words. As you awake from a dream into an unknown world, spread your beautiful wings and take flight!! You say if you could fly, you'd never come back down. You only have eyes for that blue, blue sky. You know if you can just make it through, you'll find what you seek. So keep trying to break free, to that blue, blue sky. That blue, blue sky. Love Always,

There are few words that can ease a family's pain during this time of grief, but I just wanted to let you know that Walter touched my life time and time again through the years. It’s been quite some time since I moved from the block and so we lost touch as people tend to do as they try to find their life’s path. Since then I only bumped into him a few times when I happened to be in the neighborhood, but each of those times he always had a big smile for me, “Wassup, Dick!” He may very well be one of the wildest toughest men I’ve ever known, but I also know that he had a good heart and would always be there for those he cared about. I will always remember that Walter Martin was good and loyal to me, and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to call him my friend.

My thoughts are with your family during this difficult time.

With love,
