Andrew - What can I say about you that has not already been said? You and your family have brought so many smiles to my life and warmed my heart day after day. Thank you for that. I want you to know that I have loved you since the first day I met you, your parents and your brothers. I consider myself blessed to have known the extraordinary love that you all share.

My tears seem selfish. I cry because I miss you… because I cannot see your face, but I can still feel you and the love that you have shown to me and all of us, unconditionally.

I know we have not seen each other in a while, but I know that will not be everlasting. The time that we will be apart here, is only an instant in the scheme of forever.

I love you Mijo and I will be seeing you.

“It is the will of God and Nature that these mortal bodies be laid aside, when the soul is to enter into real life; 'tis rather an embryo state, a preparation for living; a man is not completely born until he be dead: Why then should we grieve that a new child is born among the immortals?”
Benjamin Franklin, 22 February 1756

To Ms. Lucy, Mr. Arthur, Art, and Kenny. I'm really sorry about Andrew. He was a very good friend and a great dance partner. He was like a brother to me and always having fun with us. He will never be forgotten and he will always be in my heart. He is now watching over us and supporting everyone. He is our angel from heaven and he's in a better world. I love you Andrew and i'll see you soon. Love, Maggie Arellano
