I wish I could undo everything like is was a bad dream. I love you so much ! I miss when you would introduce me as your baby sister. I have so many good memories, they play like a movie in my head, every single day. Never stop lovin you Boy!

Well I don't have to say I miss you, because you already know. Geee! I wish things could be so different. I know you are tickled about Tana, isn't she beautiful!! I tell her about you everyday, and Cadence. You know I thought I could go on with everyday, but it will never be the same without you. So so different. But GOD keeps me full of faith, and strength for me to overcome each day. Strange how things become what they are. I know the path is long and bumpy! I'll make it! through GOD. MY LORD , MY SAVIOR, MY FRIEND. I know it takes me a while to write you, but I have to get my thoughts together. Sometimes I'm angry and I don't want to write under that mode. Well til next time Love You!!!

Hey Uncle Bonnie!
I hope you have a better life than what you had down here! I know that you were strunling on trying to stop smoking... and you did! I was so very proud of you! I really love and miss you so very much! Everyone wants you to have a better life uo here! I really want to see you. And I can...only in pictures and in my wonderful memories. I was always taught to think of the great memories not the bad. Everyone misses you and prays that god is protecting you everyday! And we all know that your with us every step of our lives!

February 26, 2007

I love you Giovanni! I miss you so much, but I try to be strong. It's when I am alone that I can't hold it in.
One thing that makes me really sad, is the thought that I never got to say "Thank You" for everything you taught me, even when you didn't think you were.
Thank You!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Happy New Year Giovanni!
I know you are lookin down on all of us wanting all of us to have a good time and live on. For the 1st time since you left I was self-fish and thought of myself first, As long as I can remember you have called me every NEW YEAR to wish me the best, and you didn't this year. It never hit me like it did last night. I think of you every day, every song that comes on, every pretty thing I see and every beautiful day I see your face, hear your laugh, your words and silly explanations you had fo some things. I miss you so much, but I know you are safe, having the best time, enjoying the most beautiful things to see and for that, makes me a little less sad. Never the less, you are with me every single second of the day. Destiny and Dakota remind me of you and I thank God that sometimes I see you, in them. I love you! Happiest of New Year to you! Your baby sister

I have very fond memories of Giovanni, his brother Carlos, his sisters, and the rest of the fine Aguilar family. This is from my childhood, on Ravan Avenue in Harahan. I remember Giovanni as someone who loved to laugh, and as being kind-hearted by nature. I know that as an adult, Giovanni displayed a natural talent for carpentry, and no doubt his customers loved him. My deepest sympathy to the family.

Lori,

I saw you at the playground last night and I was telling you a story I remember. I remember sitting on your sofa countless nights and you just asking Gio to finish those kitchen cabinets. I can remember his words like it was yesterday. He just didn't want to do it. He would say "I'm not going to do them". Well you told me yesterday it took two years to fimally get those cabinets up and kitchen finished and we laughed about it. It's those times that I spent with Gio and your family that I cherish the most. The simple things and little things always means the most.I will always keep you and your family in my heart and prayers.

March 4, 2006

Lori, I was so sorry to hear about Giovanni. I had just gotten word late yesterday and will not be able to attend.



Some of my fondest childhood memories revolve around growing up with “the boy”. He was a real best friend. I feel world is a now sadder place without him. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and all of Giovanni’s extended family.

Terry King

March 4, 2006

When I was little, he protected me. When I was a teen, he spoke to me. As an adult, he taught me small things I will never forget. He was proud that I loved unconditionally. I am not saying good bye, he will be with me when I smile at the silly things, or when I cry at the sad. Every day, every moment he will be in my heart, never will I let him fade. He is MY BROTHER, and I loved him unconditionally.

March 3, 2006

Lori, I am truly sorry about Gio. What can you say about Gio except he was great always so helpful, that is why he and my brother were friends because they were so much a like. " A stranger was just a friend he had yet to meet". Someone said that to me about my brother and when I think of them together, that is the first thing that comes to mind. If you or the kids need anything please let me know. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
