I have known Felix since I was in 1st or 2nd grade. He was a nice friend. I will miss him very much, RIP Felix

I knew this for a while. however, it is very hard for me to face the terrible feeling of loss about him. I constantly think of that little handsome, shy and cute little boy who liked to hide behind mom when he was less than 2-year old. I am not a religious person yet. However, if there is GOD, please please bless him! Shulan and Huihuang, Rochester MN

He was wise and strong beyond his years and will live on in the hearts and minds of all who were privileged to know him.
With enduring sympathy and abundant love,

Felix was the type to live for the moment because it could be your last. Never took life for granite. Felix and I got very close of friends in the 5th grade when we met. He is such a sweetheart. He would talk to and be friends with anybody. No matter who you are. It breaks my heart I will never get to see that sweet face. But knowing he's at peace and with God is a relieve. But when you lose a loved one you must stay positive, remember the good times. I never regret any moment I spent with Felix and I take every moment as a blessing. He might be gone but NEVER forgotten. Forever he will be in my heart. Love you sweet boy. Rest in everlasting paradise. <3

He always called me by my last name because he thinks my last name is bizarre. Because of that, I always called him by his last name, he was a really nice person and very smart too. :) The Lord has gained another angel and Felix will always watch over his family. Rest In Peace
