Whether I'm thinking of you or staring at a picture, I look into your eyes and wonder why. Then I see you smile, I'll share a memory or just talk to you. I hear your voice and laughter and just can't help it laughing with you. I see our childhood so goofy and playful, so humble, so caring and loved. I see you and feel you here with me, then my heart feels heavy and tears run down my face. Still looking into your eyes I hear you say "don't cry B" putting a smile on my face, I respond saying "I know" but just still wonder why?

Papi,
Well we have lost another PR soldier, Marcial! He has alotta work to do before he can join you but I'm praying real hard for his soul! I remember all the great times we spent with him! At Anton's bday parties, Marcial would set up, cook, serve, dance & clean! He was a good friend to us, a great guy, & I'm gonna miss him dearly! When he is ready to walk beside you, PLEASE welcome him with your infectious smile, give him a big hug & tell him he is finally free to RIP!!! Much love to you always & forever!

Uchy,
I'm sitting here watching our son play! He is just like you! He's built like you, walks like you, talks like you, moves like you, he has your personality and sense of humor! Its crazy! Everyone tells me how lucky I am to have him and I know I am but I would rather have you both! Its just not the same and never will be! Anton talks about you as if he just saw you or just spoke to you! Sometimes in the middle of him telling me something he looks to the sky and says "Right, dad!" Although you two only had 4 years and 5 days together, you are still his father, daddy, best friend, homeboy, and superhero! He remembers everything about you which makes me very happy! As for myself, the pain is still there and will always be! I thought time was supposed to heal??? I love you and miss very much!

I'm sitting here thinking back of the last night I saw you (just 4 days before your death) at Diego's 30th birthday party...you had to be the last person I found to invite to the party, the 1st one to get there and the last 1 to leave. Although I will never fully understand why things happened, I am grateful that you were there to celebrate with us & leave us with our last memory of you smiling. You are truly missed Uchy...more than you know....

Well Uchy,
Me, Anton, Tracey, Tianna, Xavier, & Janiah just returned from visiting you and Punty's graves! It is always very sad! Its been almost 8 months but your loss only gets harder, not easier! The pain and hurt I feel everyday when I look at our beautiful son without you here is unbearable! He looks and acts just like you! My world will never be the same! I love you and miss you and Punty very much! We continue to mourn you until we join you! Love you Papi

Papi Uchy,
I still haven't come to terms with losing you and now Punty! The world is no longer the same! They say the good die young and I'm starting to believe it! PLEASE pray for and watch over me, Tracey, and these babies! I love and miss you so much and I would give anything to be with you again! Until then, rest in peace!

I didn't know Ouchi but,The bible says "to be out of the body is to be at home with the Lord".Truly he is in paradise where other loved one's have gone. I and others who suffered tragedies have faith that there is a world beyond this and it brings us comfort, especially knowing that there is a God who understands and feels our grief and heartache.May you find peace and comfort knowing that this life is not all there is.
