I remember Troublez waking me up that morning all those years ago and giving me the news. I didn't believe it then and it still doesn't seem real. Your absence is felt by so many people. You were a homeboy and brother like nobody else. You lifted us up as youngsters and that's something I'll never forget. Me and Indio used to sit at your grave and burn one back to back reminiscing a out you. You're missed to this day bro. Rest in peace!

We're a few days away from your birthday and I'm still telling my self that we got in a argument and we haven't talked in awhile. That is what I keep telling myself to keep from crying everyday. It kills me to know that I'll never see your smile or for you to tell me I'm dumb :) but most of all I miss your words of encouragement you never would let me fall and that's why I fell in love with the person the everybody else did. I miss you every day, I wake up to a picture of you next to bed everyday for a little push since I can't hear your words anymore. But know that on your birthday I will celebrate your life and remember the good times we had. I love my cuddy now and forever!!!

I love you Mario. Mario’s Prayer
Hearts are heavy now
Dear Lord for now sadness and broken hearts are looming here today.
Our prayers are calling out to you
Our thoughts are too much to bear
Please Lord be with Mario’s loved ones
WE NEED YOU
Guide us, lead us; help see us through
Bless our brother Mario for we know he asks for your blessings
Protect Mario, open his heart show him love and let him know he is at peace
No more pain
This I say to you Lord. Thank you
Mario. I know you’re there
Mario I know you’re here
I love you brother R.I.P.
I say this in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen
Till we meet again one love......

Dear family of Mario,
I was Mario's second grade teacher, as well as Karina's and Conrado's. They were in my class at Whittier Elementary School in Salt Lake City, and I remember each of them as well as if it were yesterday! I loved all of them, and it breaks my heart to see that Mario has been taken away from you all at such a young age! He was a delightful child,one that I dearly loved, and one in whom I saw a lot of potential. I remember him as "one of my kids", and will never forget him and his very cute smile!
I am so sorry for your famiy's loss! Please contact me so I can stay in touch. My love is with you all, and my belief in peace and angels will hopefully pass on to you the comfort you need to heal.

Mario, you were a one -of- a- kind person. Always your enthusiasm for life was amazing. Your smile was infectious and ruled the world when it appeared. Your physical strength was daunting. You grew into a wonderful man.
Karina was your safe harbor, Conrado was your strength, all children were your love, your friends were your joy and your family were your foundation.
We know that you are in a better, safer, place now. That your father, brother, Gia and all your friends who passed before you have engulfed you in love and guided you to peace.
During your brief time with us, we lost you over and over, now never again. Our sorrow is not for you, but for our loss of such a talented, loving person. Your leaving so soon has created a hole in hearts and our lives. You will be forever missed.
I am proud to have been your mother, you enriched my life. Forgive my failings and short comings. Now you know my heart and realize how much I love you and how proud of you I am. I will always be in awe of the person you were becoming, of your artistic talent, your ability to create such beautiful art and then to preserve it as tattoos.
God give you peace. May there be beautiful Angels beside you, loving you and guiding you. Good-bye for now my beloved son, I'll see you soon. Moms

Mario u once told me;"I cant help but think about the way things use to be the entire world would just fade away leaving ony you & me. We would thrive in our togetherness as slowly we become 1 our souls are so connected. How did we let it come undone? Do u remember all the things we said, the promises we made? If it meant anything at all we cant just let it fade. Mario our love will never fade it will always burn. U told me u would make me Love you & u did. I fell head overheels w/ u since the 1st day we meet. The DINGDONG will never be forgotten. I love you Mario F. Cabezas.

Mario,
This world will never be the same without your unique laugh. I'm saddened its been so long since we last kicked it and I regret not making more of an attempt. I think back on the good times we had when there wasn't a care in the world...Me, you, gorge, and Matt sluffing school with our big gulp cups full of top ramen noodles watching The Boyz In The Hood...so many memories of you of you bro that I will forever hold on to. Your smile, crazy laugh, and big heart I will forever miss, until we meet again. It was a pleasure and an honor knowing you and thank you for all the memories and good times. I love you dog!!! My heart goes out to you and your family.

Words seem inadequate to express the sadness we feel about Mario's death. He was an important person in our lives and the lives of so many. Mario was more to us then just a friend he was part of the family.
To Mario's Family- We are here to support you in your grieving process. You too are our family so if you need anything you know you can just call.
Tinaya and Moniko - Your dad loved your so much don't ever forget!
I met Mario when we were so young in Glendale (900 West) we were neighbors Mario, Nina, and all of our friends would terrorize the neighborhood ;) He was the GodFather to my oldest daughter and he wasn't just my friend he was like my brother. Through thick and thin until we meet again!
Peace, Prayers, Blessings and Love always,
Richard, Jontue, Marissa, Esperanza, Michaela, Selena and Jerzee Chavez.
