Flavya, I can't express the sorrow that this has brought Chuck and I. Duckie was a light. He was a smart, funny, polite, sweet little boy and he couldn't have asked for a better mommy to guide him and teach him during his short time on earth. The times we were with him were such a joy and we are so so sorry for your loss. We love you.

Dear Flavia, words cannot express how saddened I am by the news. I was blessed and so were the other children to have had Duckie in Sunday school. He was such a precocious, funny, ball of energy - the Lord gifted him with a huge personality. Always smiling, always happy, always willing to participate. A testament to you and to the Lord Jesus who was always with him. I pray that God give you strength through this difficult time. Your sister in the Lord, Paula Vazquez and Nicolai

September 10, 2015

My heart is broken in two for you Flavia. Your son was a light bulb of joy! He's smile is etched on my mind. I am so thankful for the privileged of knowing him and teaching him the Bible at First Baptist Church Canoga Park in California.You are in our thoughts and prayers,
With many tears,
Jeff and Susie Wong (son Joshua remembers him as well, and is equally sad for your loss).
