Hi Julia, it's your tia. I just wanted to write to tell you how much I love and miss you. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. I try to be strong for the boys, because I know they can't see me cry all the time. You definitely took a big part of me, when you left us. I feel so lonely at times, because I don't have you to talk to. You would always listen, and even if I was wrong, you always made me feel good. You were such a fun and loving person to be around,(although sometimes you did drive me crazy!) Mija, sometimes I feel, the hardest thing for me is the regret. There are so many things, I wish I would have said and done with you. And some things I wish I would have never said and done. But I know it's to late for all that. My peace now is knowing that you are with GOD, and that no one could take better care of you than him. I love you and will never forget you.

Hey Julie, I was home just hanging out, and I was thinking about you. I miss you very much Julia, everyone does. I hear your voice in my head sometimes, it makes me so happy, and sad, all at the same time. I pray that the Lord never takes the memories I have of you away, I try my best to remember everything about you, and the things we did. I love you Julia, and I know we will see eachother again, but until then,you are in my prayers and heart. Love your Uncle, David.

Hi my love,
I am missing you a great deal and I am still waiting until the day we will all be together. The days seem to be going by so fast at times and then seem to last forever. Everywhere we go something reminds me of you. All these teenage girls I see walking around, they remind me of you. I miss you so much and still wish that we had more time. It is not fair,it should be you walking around.
I love you forever, your mom

Everyday that goes by still seems so unreal to me. Sometimes I feel like I am in a bad dream. Then I realize it is not, and I keep going on because I have your brothers and sister to keep living for. It is hard at times because their is a piece of me that is missing now that you have left this earth. I have no way of getting it back. My heart aches at times with such intense pain that I feel like I can not go on. And then I remember, how strong and wonderful you are and will always be to me.
So much potential I saw in you. you had a fire inside of you(strong willed), you use to get so upset with me when I would tell you that, do you remember?
When I am feeling my lowest, I feel you near me telling me to pick myself up and keep going. You were one of my biggest fans and I miss so much talking to you on the phone and even all the times we would hang up on each other because we did not want to her each other anymore. Life is so short and I am trying not to waste it on being afraid to do things that need to be done. I have wasted to much time doing that. I love you and look forward to the day when we see each other again.
You are forever in my heart Julia!
Love, mom

Hey Julie, I was up and thinking of you, so I thought I would write you. I miss you, and love you, like always. I pray that God gives you a hug and kiss for me, until I can do myself. Love ya Julia.

Since Heaven has become your home I sometimes feel I'm so alone; and though we now are far apart you hold a big piece of my heart.
I never knew how much I'd grieve when it was time for you to leave, or just how much my heart would ache from that one fragment you would take.
God lets this tender hole remain reminding me we'll meet again, and one day all the pain will cease when He restores this missing piece.
He'll turn to joy my every tear with thoughts of you I hold so dear, and they'll become my special way to treasure our Reunion Day.

This is so wierd Julia writing in your guestbook. Time has gone by and it still feels unreal to me. I know it will get easier as time goes by but I have a deep sadness inside that won't seem to go. I love you very much and miss you terribly. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I am so grateful I got closer to you cuz and was filled with the joy you brought to me. YOur laughter and smile is engraved in my mind forever, Julia.
I can't wait for the day that I can run to you with open arms and hug you so tightly and laugh with you again. I pray for you every night girl and thank God that you are in heaven safe.
I know you are with me Julia in everything I do. Thank you for always being there for me and for being so compassionate and understanding. I love you Julia. YOu will never be forgotten sis.

Julia, im doing a little better, now. I still think of you all the time, it seems like everything reminds me of you. Even though the memories hurt sometimes, I thank God for them. I've been praying a lot more lately, trying get closer to the Lord, and our family because I know thats what you would want Julia. I love, and miss you so much Julia, life seems so dull, and empty sometimes, its the weirdest feeling. Your Grandma and I are doing better, even though its hard. It's really lonely without you around Julia, but I know you would'nt want us sad and depressed all the time, so im going to try my best to change that, okay. I love you, and i'll write you again soon Julie.
Love your Uncle David..

My pain over the loss of your life is almost unbearable, if not for your brothers and sister I would feel completely empty right now.
I miss you everyday. I keep waiting to her your voice and to her your quick speaking voice that sometimes I could barely understand at times. when you use to call and say, "Hi Mom, what are you doing?"
I keep remembering all of the wonderful memories that I had with you and even the tough ones when you were one of my greatest challenges in life. You were a tough strong willed little girl. I life ended to short.
This may sound silly, but I was doing tae bo yesterday and I started laughing because I remembered when we use to do it at Tia Sophia's house, you had the hardest time, you looked so awkward. you made us laugh because you still would not stop even though we could not stop laughing. You were always determined to do what you set out to do.
Your brother Michael and Vanessa miss you every day. Sometimes Vanessa wants me to bring you back and those are some of the toughest times for me. How do you explain to a six your old that you are powerless to do this.
Your memory will stay with me forever and my only comfort in all of the sadness is that I know I will see you again in the end.
love ,Mom

I love you Julia and I know ur in a better place now, so were trying to be strong.. u were like family to me, I know u would have been someday, and I'm going to miss u so much. It's not the same without u here.. I can't go over there anymore without hoping to see u answer the door, or sitting there on the couch on the phone or on myspace, or always waking me and david up in the morning... I miss all your stories, I miss u asking me for advice on everything and what to wear, I just miss u! I never worried about u Julia, because u were such a strong girl and I always told myself and David that u could take care of yourself and u had so many friends that had your back.. I don't know how something so terrible could happen to u, but I know justice will be served.. don't worry Julia, we will make sure of that. You didn't deserve to be taken away from us so soon, sweet 16, I was so looking forward to u getting older, and hey, maybe even partying with me when u turned 21!! (sigh) I wish there was more time, I wish we could have done so much more together, all of us.. but I will always treasure all the moments I had with u, birthday parties, water slides, ride home from Vegas, and all those late nights talking and early mornings.. I will never forget ur pretty face and ur vibrant personality! But I know ur at peace now, no longer having to suffer in this cruel world, And I pray to God that someday we will join u there.. I love u Julia!

To My Beautiful Niece Julia Alexis Gonzalez-
I give thanks to God every day for the time we had together, and the bond he allowed us to share. You were such an important part of my life,a very exciting, fun, and smart young women. I will miss coming home from work every night and having our talks. It was lots of fun goofing around, and making fun of everyone, you were my lil partner in crime around the house, and i'll always hold the times we spent dear. I used to love to make you laugh, and even when my jokes werent very funny, you would laugh anyway. You always knew how to make me feel good about myself. I love you Julia, and if God blesses me with children one day, I will be sure to tell them all about you and how much of a smart, wonderful, and loving person you were... I pray that I live my life right so that we can be together again one day Julia.. Until that day, you will always be in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Your Uncle David

Hi Julia
I have great memories of you,
remembering the day you were born, holding your hand when you first walked. Dancing with you, when music was playing, yes, you wanted to dance, even before you could talk. As you grew older, I can remember helping you with homework late into the night,and even trying to give you advice. I will always cherish those moments, and the many times we spent together.I pray for you everyday and know that you are with our Lord in Heaven.
love Cathy

Hi Mija
I cannot believe that I am sitting here talking to your spirit, it breaks my heart to know that you are gone. My only joy is knowing that you are one of God's angels. I pray that God will make you my Guardian Angel, so that you will always be by my side. I will always remember you and love you with all my heart. My only comfort is knowing that I will see you again someday.
love you forever Grandpa

Gonzalez Family,
May God be with all of you in this time of pain and sorrow. I pray that God would fill the emptiness that all of you feel with Julia being gone. I pray that God gives you all strength and peace. I see you all like family and i want you to know that my heart is hurting too, especailly seeing all of you hurting. What is comforting in all this, is that Julia is up in heaven and we will all see her some day again. It's only for a little while that we are on this earth, but we will be in Heaven for eternity. I thank God for giving me the opportunity to get to know Julia and what a beautiful young women she became.
Remember always that God is well pleased with all of you and how each one of you had a specail part in Julia' life. I love you all and my family and i will continue to pray for you. God Bless you....

11 Corinthians 4:5-18
For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;
Persecuted, but not forsaken' cast down, but not destroyed;
Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
So then death worketh in us, but life in you.
We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I BELIEVED, AND THEREFORE HAVE I SPOKEN; we also believe, and therefore speak:
Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
For which cause we faint not;but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
For our light affliction, which if but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal;but the things which are not seen are eternal.
11Corinthians 4:5-18
Let the word of God be a comfort to all who are grieving the loss of a beautiful and loved young woman.

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

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.

To lose the ones that we love for unknown reasons are very heartbreaking. This child was loved by many people and strangers that fear the loss of their own loved ones. My prayers go out to the family of Julia Alexis Gonzalez, I pray that you find the peace and understanding of why this happened. There are no words to explain the heartache that we go through during these days of emptiness, but always remember that she is an angel watching over you always. May God bless you always.

I did not know Julia, but I have two daughters, one 18 and one 16. I cannot imagine what I would be going through if it were one of them. I cannot express with mere words what I'd like to convey to you at such a time as this, but remeber, life does go on. My heart, thoughts and prayers are forever with your family. God be with you.
