Edward Travens Obituary

EDWARD ANTHONY BALLESTEROS TRAVENS
June 9, 1976 - April 29, 1992

To My Handsome Son, Edward,

Today is your birthday son! Although it has been 20 years since you were tragically taken away from your family; it seems like only yesterday.

Edward, we will always and forever remember what a wonderful son, brother, grandson, nephew, and friend you are. Your beautiful smile, how very handsome you are, your kindness toward everyone you met, your big loving hugs, how smart you are, and how you enjoyed working on cars. We will proudly continue to feel your angelic presence around us, as we know you are here with us!

We miss you with all of our hearts! I wish I could say "Happy Birthday" to you in person Edward. Unfortunately, life was cruel to us. So, here we are wishing our Angel Edward in heaven the most Angelic of birthdays in writing instead... LOVE YOU SON!

BLESSED BIRTHDAY MY SON EDWARD!

Edward, I know you are always with us. Whenever white doves or other kinds of God's beautiful birds arrive at our home, I know Angels are near. You have often come in times of sadness, need, and just because. I often feel your welcoming touch and smile as a cool breeze swishes passed me leaving a perfect moment, and I say "hi son." I wish I could turn back the hands of time and have you here again son because when you left us most of my heart became empty. I see the world keep going as each day passes, but part of my life has stopped forever. I have never felt the same since, and never will. I miss you so very much my beautiful son Edward. Happy Angelic Birthday!
