He may be gone. but the legacy he's leaving behind is what God had I mine.
Juan living shall not be in vain
From the things he did, he set the stage to someone else to carry the torch
It's not how long we live, but it's How well. He lived a life pleasing to God and to man. May others carry the torch that he carried

Minister Emelda & Donald Saul

Jesus when he was leaving his disciples and preparing for the cross, promised never to leave us alone, but to send a Comforter, one just like Himself. At this time of your sorrow, lean on Him as he will send his comforter to take care of you

A life well lived. A leader, an inspiration, a well rounded and fully developed young man. His faith and trust in God, his desire to give back to the community as a coach to the same school he graduated from, West St. John High.
To Betty, Buck, Dre, his beloved wife and children, I say take it to God, he's the only one that can help to heal ease your pain. I loved Juan. I am praying for your family
