Paulina: My deepest sentiments for your loss. I have known you for such a long time, and I know how much Auggie meant to you. Even though I never met him in person, I feel that you belonged together. It's never easy to lose someone. I pray for that strength that you've always had to come to you in full power. We may not understand God's will in everything, but He does have a way to make good from the bad. In the meantime, enjoy your life and your kids. They need you now more than ever. Celebrate Auggie's life. I believe that's what he would want you to do. Our condolences, from the Rodriguez Family.

Paulina I know how much you and the kids love Auggie and I pray the family will stay strong. You are a child of God and your knowledge and prayer will help you in your journey in life. I remember the day we met Auggie. Somehow you knew he was the one for you. You guys layed eyes on each other and never let go. I am so blessed to have shared a very important moment in your lives. Auggie was so full of life and he had one of the best personalities. He was the type of person that could be any type of persons best friend. We will miss him so much. Thank you Lord for giving us such beautiful memories of Auggie Ramirez!! I Love you Paulina!! Rosa Quiroz

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.
