Gilbert Esteban Mata

I still cry everyday at the thought of you gone. Some days are easier then others. Some days you show me you're still near. We never could venture far from each other. You'd fly me to you around my birthday just to make sure I knew how much you loved me. You and I always found ourselves back together. I remember the thrill and excitement of getting an assigned seat next to you in Mr. Brown's aquatic science class. I remember bringing you tacos and starting this wonderful relationship. I...

I will never forget you . We went to school together , you and I , we had some laughs , we took the same courses , and shared the same views . In the summer of our junior year of college , we both went to Innsbruck , where we got to visit the UN, climb mountains in Switzerland , and drink the best beer in Germany . After college , I moved to Denver to pursue my law career and it was only this year that I realized that we had been living in the same city for the last three years . I wish we...

I knew Gilbert would be someone important in my life the moment I met him last year. You set the bar high, it goes to show that what I was looking for does exist. It was like I had known him for years...his smile, his way of being, everything about him brightened up my day just by seeing him or hearing his voice. I had never met a man in my life that has impacted me the way he did. Even taking care of Emma reflected who he was as a person. I will have you in my heart forever, and I will see...

My heart is broken over this loss. Gibby, I will always remember you as the sweetest, kindest, most sincere little boy ever. You were precious and like one of my little brothers...I know that we have lost you in the physical but spiritually you are with us now and forever. Stay close. I love you!

I wouldn't have made it through 2016 without you Gilbert.. I will never forget the knowledge I've learned from you and the memories we shared together. You will always be the love of my life.. you're living proof some things are too perfect to exist. Love always, Autumn

Sorry for your loss may the good lord be with you and yours during this difficult time.
Take comfort in knowing that you now
have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

blessings,
