Hello Mijo, I still can not except that you are gone. Me and your tio keep remembering the last day that you spent with us and told us that you were so tired. I keep that smile of yours and that dimpel on your face in my mind. I keep hearing your laugh. Me and tio went to del rio eairler this year and the first thing we both said was this is the bottle that we would have brought back for Dutchie. You are the only nephew that would always call me when you were on the road and tell me "I love you tia" Mijo I went to visit your grave on your birthday and guess what I spent $5.00 on flowers. You know that is my tradition no more than $5.00. I have so many things that I would like to talk to you about only I can't. You are now in heaven a better place and you are not tired any more. We all miss you. Even carmela. (oops, I mean Maria)
Merry Christmas Dutchie

Dear Cousin, I just wanted to drop you a few lines I really hope all is good and I’m hoping you are up there watching over each one of us. Man I can’t get over the things that have occurred down here since your passing it’s so unbelievable. It really makes me sad you are no longer here. I see the pain wearing my mom down because she misses you. You always came around and anytime you needed something she either gave it to you or tried her best to be able to give you that of what you asked for. Whenever no mater what hour of the day it was wether it be late night or early morning. Now your gone and all I see is sadness riding on my moms shoulder (she was more then just your aunt) The Love she gave you was just as strong as the love she gives me, basically I am writing to ask you to please watch over her as well if you could. I know she miss you soo much. Take care.

My deepest condolences go to the all the Flores Family, especially Irene & Oscar. I first met Dutch when he was 13 through my younger brother. Then we crossed paths again through your brother Oscar, that's when I also met Celeste. I'm very sorry for your loss. You all will be in my prayers!

Dutch and I went Elder middle school together and then I ended up marrying his older brother Senon Flores some years later. With that our family grew closer when Senon and I decided to have kids; Joseph Seth Flores, Abigael Miranda Flores and baby Adam Angel Flores. Joseph is at your house every day because Alexis and Joseph go to school together so he cried pretty bad when I had to tell him. As for Abigeal, she loves Alexis. Dutch wanted the girls to have their birthday's together since they were a day apart. I am thankful Dutch was able to see and hold his new nephew, baby Adam Angel Flores. Dutch called me a couple days before he had past to tell me he had forgot about Joseph at the bus stop and I dont remember what I said that made him say "Josie, don't be stupid I love Jospeh! That's my brother's kid! You are family and if the kids need something I am there!" He prove that to me so many times. This made me realize family is family and no one comes before that. We are all here to help each other in good times and bad. So I say this to you Dutch, "I will truely miss you and those pretty green eyes!" I tell Celeste now, "every time you look at bob you will see Dutch." Dutch will live on through his kids Alexis and Bob. When I lost my brother Adam Lopez in 04 I see and feel the same pain my husband is going through right now and when see my mother-in-law (Nanio) hurt I remember holding my mom. My husband Senon and my mother-in-law Irene know I can relate to loosing a brother. It's hard and the pain never goes away, but as the years pass by your heart WILL grow stronger.
I LOVE YOU BABE (SENON) SO MUCH AND I WILL ALWAYS BE HERE FOR YOU!
John 14:1-3
"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in GOD, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.I go to prepare a place for you. And if i go to prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
LOVE ALWAYS AND FOREVER!
SENON & JOSIE FLORES

Roger's mom is my cousin and I have not seen you in a while.
Irene there are no words that will take away the pain but may God comfort you. We alway's want to go before our children and I know it is very difficult for someone to lose a child. Our children may be adults but they are still our babies.
May the lord bless you and & the family at this very difficult time.

I'm very sorry for the Flores's Family loss, but he will not be alone. He is up there with his father and his brother and best friend Sergio (Roach). He will always be in our hearts and memories. We will pray for his family and want them to know that if they ever need anything they should let us know because he and his family were there through my brother's passing and my family owes them a lot and we thank them very much.

I had not seen Dutch since he was about 9 or 10 years old but when I was informed of his passing all those memories came flooding back. What a character he was back then, always had that beautiful smile on him.
My deepest sympathy goes to the entire Flores family. May the peace of the Lord be upon you in this time of sadness and know that our time here on earth is only temporary. Be content to know that Dutch's soul is at peace and looks down on you with love.

Dear Flores FAM:
I know it's real hard for yall to accept
the fact that someone so important to yall isn't going to be around anymore, But things like this happen in life &&there isn't anything u can do about it, but be strong and know that he's watching yall from up above. It hurts to know that I met him soo young and now I wont be hearing that he's around. There isn't anything that I can say to make yall feel better. But im Truly Sorry. I would have wished nothing like this would have happend. GOD took him for a reason. May he REST IN PEACE.

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.
