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.

Tony and Jobey,
I am so sorry for your loss. It is still hard to believe that Quero is gone. I have many great memories of him. Especially the trip we all took to San Antonio, and the fun parties you all always had. Tony we all know Lil Tony is and always will be your pride and joy and Jobey he was your world. Through prayer and the love and support of friends and family you will find comfort. You guys will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers and please know I am here for you both.

My beautiful son, I know you are in heaven. I do not have the words to express how much I love you and how much I miss you. Though you are not with me physically, you will always, always be with me in my heart. You were my world, my life, MY EVERYTHING! I know that God allowed me to borrow you and I am extremely grateful for the time he gave me with you. You touched hundreds of hearts within the short time you were with us. I wish I could physically touch you, hug you and kiss you. I will MISS YOU and LOVE YOU FOREVER.
