Take comfort in knowing he released himself to God's will. Our joy is in believing in the great reunion we will have, as God has promised this because of Jesus Christ - who paved the way for us. May God's love keep you in peace during this hard time of your life.

This poem reminds me of my uncle Tony.
** **
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in
The morning’s hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.

Love you, Leonard Aragon

My condolences to the Velasques family. Tony was a dear friend of mine which I had the pleasure of knowing. He was such a fun person to be around with. He will be missed but we will have the opportunity to see him again. "Pain Free" Love you Tony, your friend Juanita Castro
