Lou, just sittin here thinking about you and wishing I still had a friend like you in my life. Even though we only knew each other for a few years I always felt like you were one of my good friends. Turns out you were one of my best friends but you made everyone feel that way. If I ever needed anything done you always volunteered to help. Me and Sylvia miss you!!(and yea shes still giving me a headache)lol.. miss you bro, and wish you were still here.

Luis, as hard as it still is to believe your gone....the harsh reality sets in that you were tooken away from your family and friends seven months ago today. The fact tonight is christmas eve it siginifys to me you are a true angel. I wish heaven had a phone or an elevator to allow visitors but I believe heaven is too precious and beautiful for visitors, there is only one entrance. I miss you more than others can understand and/or words can explain, you were taken way too soon and that will always be tragic to all that loved you. But believe you will never be forgotten.

Sad that you've been gone for six months, sad that your not with your family and friends for the holidays, I know you are in a better place rather I want to acknowledge it or not but I am thankful you were in my life and grateful for the times we shared. You have impacted my life greatly and I miss your wisdom and kind words....but most of all I miss you. I hope you are still living your life to the fullest with God, and hope you are looking over all that loves and cares for you...you were a good man tooken to soon!

Never woulda thought that would be last time I would ever talk to u ever again or get one of your texts again.....I miss both, I miss you! I miss our late night talks and/or text convo's....we would get silly cuz we were too tired :) Well, I hope God and all the angels are taking good care of you and that you are watching over all that love and miss you. I miss and love you Luis, you are always in my thoughts and my heart...RIP Honey!

Been thinking about you a lot lately. been looking at pictures. who would have thought that you would be taken away so soon. when i first met u your eyes and smile revealed some type of innocence. i was puzzled by it, but now realize it was because you were a true angel. your halo and wings were not present yet. i know you have them now. you were a real friend and you will be greatly missed. much love big homie.

I love you....until we meet again

October 25, 2011

Titi Nena is thinking of you, today and almost every day. Thanksgiving is coming and although I have lots of things still to be thankful for it hurts that you wont be walking through that door. Still so hard to believe. I talk to your mom every day at "your time." I'm sure I dont fill the void she feels for you, I'm sure I dont make her laugh halfs as much or tell stories as funny or as good as you :)...So many things I wish I would have said to you, could have said to you...held you longer. Titi Nena misses you and loves you Ernie.

4 months have passed....and missing you more each day that passes. Tears still fall from my eyes when I see a picture of you...and still in disbelief. I wish we could turn back the clock. So many people are missing you these days...sad to see this. I can't express my real feelings, all I know is that I still have alot of pain inside. Thinking of you makes my heart ache.....and I just want to fall apart. I miss you so much Ernie. You affected so many people and that tells my that you were so special on this earth. You must be special in heaven too. I love you son and miss you so much.

Hi hunni, I woke up with tears in my eyes becuz u came in a dream...I hope its to let me kno ur okay and let me know ur ok with where ur at. I think about u a lot, ur in my head at least once a day. Maybe u came to me to assure me its time to let go, to loosen that grip to let u go cuz its so hard to do so. Obviously u mean and meant a lot to me, more than I or we thought until this tragedy. Ya know wat they say, u don't realize wat u had until its gone. In this case, didn't realize my true feelings until ur gone! So, hopefully this dream was a starting point to more to come. I hope u guide me throughout the years to come with ur wise wisdom. Until we see eachother again babe, RIP Luis...we will be reunited someday! Xoxoxo

Cant believe youve been gone for two months already, theres not a day that goes by that I dont think of you....I miss you so much! You left behind a legacy baby, you were the realest gental giant and thats commendable, you were respected and loved by many and thats remarkable! What can we say, you were one in a million boo, GOD sure did good by you along with your family, i believe thats why GOD took you away so soon becuz he wanted one of his best and you are definately one of them. I know you are in good hands Luis, you are in Gods hands and you live in his castle of the sky....i believe only the best get to go there. So, until we meet again honey, just wanna let you know that I will always remember you...care for you and love you, you will never be forgotten but forever cherished. RIP BOO

Hey Lil boy,
Went to the gravesite today...flowers, still in disbelief that you're gone. Me and Mari laughed & cried reading each others text messages that you sent to each of us, Mari's videos of you on her phone. Spent time w/your friends yesterday celebrating your birthday-stories, tears, more disbelief. I never knew how much you sang to people. Almost everyone there remembers you singing like if you were on MTV or something-lol.
Never would have known you were a premie, not from the looks of ya. :). You came too soon and you left too soon-RIP Ernie.
Titi Nena loves you & misses you Ernie.

Ernie its your birthday tomorrow! We're going to have a party for you. It hasn't gotten any easier for anyone. I think about you all the time. I think about our smoke breaks together and our little chats. I think about new years eve when Kylee was sick and you held her and kept wiping her nose because it wouldnt stop running. She looked so small when you held her but she loved you. And when you came to the girls birthday party and took lots of pictures and watched out for the kids in the pool. You were a great dad and loved kids. You would check up on me and write me little messages on facebook to see how me and the girls were doing. Our talks about crazy girls. If I knew that you would have been gone so soon the last time we spoke I would have told you that I loved you. That I appreciated your smile and always being optimistic. I loved your hugs and your laugh. I would have told you that I was so proud of the changes you were making. That you're special and mean the world to everyone you knew. I would have said so much. I'm sorry I didn't. I miss you. Happy Birthday Cuz!!!! I love you!

It's so hard to think about your birthday without you here. Was thinking about when you were born today and now you're gone. To a mother children will always be their babies. And you're still my Jolly Giant baby. The only thing that keeps me going is to know that we will meet again.

I love and miss you my "Ernie".

Ernie,
I can't put the posters of you away yet. When I open my kitchen door, there is that smile, those eyes w/the twinkle in them, I wonder when I'm gonna be able to put pix of you away. This has been devastating to our family. What the enemy has meant for evil, God will turn it around for God. I will stand on that. Something good must come out of this. God watches over His Word to perform it, so I will keep my eyes pealed to see the manifestation of that. I am so grateful for who you are. I get to maintain the image in my mind of you & Elijah going up to the altar and surrendering your hearts, spirit, lives to God. I find comfort in that. It blessed me to know that you had a favorite song at church (For You Satisfy). I remember you texting me to ask me where you could find it. How that warmed my heart that you would care about a church song. Your heart was bigger than you. :) I hope you knew how special you were to so many people. You were a good man. I miss you lil boy. Titi loves you more.

Ernie, I wish I had spoke to you more the last time I saw you. We never know the day or time when the Lord brings us home, so we need to cherish each moment the Lord allows. You were a gentle giant with a sweet spirit and I know your smile will greet all those whose trust is in the Lord one day in Heaven...and I look forward to having that conversation we missed out on. You will be missed by many and never forgotten.

My sympathy goes out to the Santiago family. For the short time that I've known Luis and his family coming to LaQuinta, I couldn't believe what I was hearing that he was gone forever. He was a very nice person and great father to his children. He will be missed deeply.

My thoughts and prayers are w all of the family and friends left behind. Although it seems like goodbye its really ill see u later. Always remember u will see him again when god calls us home. Doesn't seem fair or right but god has another plan for him and we all know he will be the best at whatever that plan may be. He is watching over us now.

My condolences to the family in their loss and to my Friends Tracy and Maria who I know are under severe stress as they truly loved their brother. Loss is never easy and the pain lessens with time but the heartache never completely goes away. Try to breathe easier when this terrible moment in time has moved on. Know that God decided it was his time and he is in peace now.
