Dear Ramos family, If you cry out to the Lord, talk to Jesus. He will be your greatest comfort through this ordeal. We like yourselfs have gone through this same kind of loss 2 years ago with our daughter, Heaven. God has supernaturally comforted us through this.

Belen was just the nicest girl ever...she was talented even more than I ever knew. I'm sad that I never really got to know on a deeper level, but I did get the pleasure of knowing her and being friends with her. I miss her tons.
Love you Belen.

Dear Ramos Family,
You are in my thoughts and prayers everyday! I remember Belen as that beautiful sunny child in Junior Master Chorale just a few years ago.
I cannot imagine the pain and grief you must be feeling. Just know that there are so many people that were touched by Belen, and are better for it!
I will be sending a gift in honor of her to SAVAPA. My love and prayers to each of you.

My heart goes out to the family, there are no words anyone can say that will help the pain. But just the though of me lossing one of my children makes tears run down my eyes. I feel your pain.I have a really close freind that lost her son, it took many years for her to live again. Don't let this tragedy break your family apart, all off you need each other to get through this outrages pain. May God guide you and help you.

From one mother that has suffered the same pain of losing my 18 yr. old son, Luis D. Meraz on 9/22/04. I can say that I feel pain again every time someone young dies. Iam still learning to cope with pain and emptiness, I know that it will be the hardest thing that any human being can cope with, but God has heard my prayers by giving me lots of strengh to keep living and accepting his will. I've been praying for your family. Belen is with God now. She will always be remembered as the young, beautiful and outstanding girl that she was. Our deepest condolences. The Meraz Lopez Fam.

To the family of Belen, I lost my best friend in a fatal accident a year and a half ago. While life goes on, I know that Belen will always be loved and missed by those who knew her. She will be kept alive in their memories and in their hearts. I work at Southwest, but never had the honor of meeting your daughter. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless.

You will be missed. Some might think we're selfish for wanting you to still be here with us but we must understand God wanted you home now. Slowly everyone will find a way to cope with you being gone. Soon enough we will all be together in Heaven. Some say sometimes spirits linger, maybe when we see a swarm of butterflies that's a little sign that your around us. Love you always your cousin, Debbie
