Hi brother, it's your big sis here. It's the day after Thanksgiving and I miss you so much. All the times we shared, watching you grow up to a handsome young man. My heart still aches for you and I miss your handsome face and smile. Don't worry, the kids all know who you are and Vic and I keep your memory alive. That will never change. I also teach my grandson about his wonderful Tio. I know you're always around because I feel you. Til we meet again little bro. Xoxo

Olando, man I miss you dude. I had a son and I named him after you. I can only hope he is as cool as you were. You protected me I know you did. You looked out for me. You always had my back and I know you had a huge heart. I hope my son can keep your memory alive thru your name and I´m already buying him all kinds of gear. I´m going to order him an iverson jersey next. I remember you and me would fight over having the number 3 lol because of him. Man I remember you gave me an iverson jersey one year because you knew my family couldn´t get one for me. You did it without missing a beat straight off your back. I wish I still had it. Man I just love you and I know you´re with god and living in peace up there. Keep us in mind keep my son in mind keep your mom in mind and send us angels send us you!! I love you man I really do. I know if you were still here you´d be in the studio with me. I became a music producer and engineer in the studios I know you´d be proud and I know you´d be making music with me. Words can´t express how bad I wish I could´ve seen you grow into a man. Someday we will meet again and I´ll have eternity to catch up with you. I love you

Felis CumpleAno mijito. Here it is 2013 and you've turned 22 years old and it only seems like yesterday you were 15. I get so mixed up with the years and find myself having to think about how old you are. I feel you so near to my heart and to my soul, my life without you on this earth has never been the the same but today is of joy because on this day you brightened up this world with your presence and in the short time you touched us all with the smiles and happiness of being a part of you. Last night on Olando's Eve we celebrated with you and I know you were there. I felt you so near and I reach to the sky and Thank Jesus Christ for only through him can this be so.
Tu familia, toda tu familia te estrana y todos celebramos tu Cumple Ano Olandito H.Trujillo My wonderful son
In The Name Of The Father The Son and The Holy Ghost: Amen :-)

Just thinking of you and all the memories. I miss you more and more everyday, it's hard to continue and grow when I expected you to be here with me! Life sucks sometimes and it's unfair that you were taken from me. There are still so many things that remind me of you and I still hear your voice, just wish you'd visit me more. there's so much I wish I could tell you it's just hard to find the words just know that I love you forever olando and you're still the best person I've ever met and the best friend I could ever have. I'm so glad and greatful I was given the opportunity to meet you and I've forgiven you for leaving me ;) <3

Reyno De mi Vida; Hijo tan lindo y bueno que Dios mi presto por muy poquito tiempo. Siempre lloro por ti y te busco en todo lo que brilla. Mi corazon esta errido y mis espiros estan muy pesados. Un padre nunca puede entender un hijo murrier antes que el. Dicen que es el plan de Dios pero siempre no estoy en aquerdo con ese plan. Naturalmente yo prefedido muerto primero antes que tu "Papacito". Ni horaciones ni sondrisas o concejos aliviaran el dolor que ciento. Uno siempre piensa en lo que puedia ser para que estes siempre vivo en este mundo. Ahora solo le pido a Dios que te ciente un lado del el por que de sevurida eres un Angel y te pido que limpies todo el hodio en nuestra familia y te dejen descansar en pas. Este dia es para ti y tus comple anos que seyan a celebracion de tu vida. Esto es lo que pido a Dios con toda Cincerida AMEN!

My Dear Son
I look for you in every thing I do, spiritually I know you are there. You know how Loved and missed you are. You can see everything now, on how life has changed here on earth with-out you. How many tears have fallen from the souls of all who Love you. On this 17th Birthday I allow myself not to think so-much of your being gone but I think of how you touched my heart and my life every time you made me smile and our laughs together. I think of that story about the headstone that had ingraved the name of the person who died, it show'd his date of birth, a dash, and the date he of his death and the most important thing was the
"dash(-)" in between which represented the part while he was here alive, the life he led and on how many he touch with Love here on earth, and on this 17th Birthday I will think of the DASH between your dates so that my tears will be for the joy of sharing the best 15 years of my life with you my son, May God Bless Your Soul and Most of all Happy Birthday Mijo. Rest in Peace in the name of Jesus Christ Amen "DAD"

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.

My Loving Son Olando;
One year today you left this earth but not our hearts. You sit by God and you see everything. You are an angel in heaven as you were here on earth. I Love you so much mijito and not a day goes by with-out a tear from my eye and pain in my heart for you. I know that you are now resting with God and all the Angels and the Saints as well as all of your Grandparents and those in our hearts that have gone before us. But here on earth your memory will live on. We shall celebrate the honor to have been a part of your life and of all the joy you brought to our hearts everyday that we were given, for you were the greatest gift from God that I had known "Mijito". Con todo mi corazon y el alma en este dia del aniversario de perder tu linda sonrisa y linda preciensa en este mundo, mijito eres todo lo que vive en mi corazon po siempre..."Papa".

To the family and friends of Olando
My deepest sympathy goes out to all of those who morn the loss of this wonderful young man. The many lives that he touched, no one knew, the many hearts he held, no one knew, the special love he had for you all, and no one knew. If we could all touch as many lives as Olando did in his short time here, our world would be so much brighter. I learned from his spirit that forgiveness and everlasting love is truly the rewards in our mortal life. You will be forever remembered and missed dearly. I truly wish we had been given more time to know you. Your light shines above and on occation, you let us know you are with us. We love you and miss you Mijo. Until we meet again, may god bless us all.

What a beautiful little Boy, Olandito. Words can never express the sorrow, the pain our whole family has felt. I can remember Olandito at my house with his cousin Josh, His beautiful smile saying with his thick voice Tia, come on take us to the mall. His spirit so full of joy & love for his family. Oh my God it's hurts to say Farewell & Goodbye and it doesn't seem fair but only God knows why he is with Jesus. He is now an Angel of God & he is still smiling and will always be with us. May God give you all strength Brother, Tina, Tenisha, JoAna, Gaby & Family. And in this Life time I will never stop loving all of you, my family.
I will always love you & never ever forget you Mijo, my little Sobrinito Olandito

Odie! My baby brother! I remember giving you that nickname. Remember we went to the store by Nisha's house and we stopped to play the machine where I won the stuffed animal Odie from Garfield. You looked at me and said "Dang midget who knew you could actually win something lol" I remember looking at the stuffed animal and telling you "he kinda looks like you with your big floopy ears" lol Ever since then the name sticked. I can remember all of our memories together. From us going to Elementary school together to seeing you go to High School. You grew into such a wonderful and respectable young man. I keep re-playing all of our long conversations in my head over and over again. We talked about anything and everything. All the times you would call me on your breaks at school just to talk and you to tell me "Midget do baby talk"! God what I would do to hear you say that one more time. I can remember the morning you tackled Sasha (my dog)because she jumped on you while you were sleeping. That was hilarious! From all of the memories that we have whether it was going to car shows or just hanging out, I'll always cherish them! Words cant express how much Sal & I miss you! When it's our time to be re-united, I hope your waiting to greet me Odie! Until then you'll remain in our hearts and will NEVER be forgotten! I love you baby brother!
Love Always Your "Midget" Joana & Sal

A child can bring you laughter, tears, life into a quiet room, hope at the end of the road when all seems lost.
Orlando's love touched the world more than he realized. His lost is great, but not forgotten. His spirit lives on.
Friends that once disputed over something minor are suddenly joined and the anger is no more.
Parents who have lost sight over their own childern have awakened.
The family of passing, smile and welcome him home to join them in a beautiful place of peace.
Thank you Orlando for giving me an opportunity to meet you. Cynthia

I will always remember the fun times we shared, you and Vic hanging out and the love you showed to my kids. You were a great tio (uncle) and an even better brother. I can't stop thinking about you. How Can I? You were like a son to me and Vic. We miss you like crazy little brother! Nicole was your favorite niece and you will always live through her. She is a spitting image of you. Lil Vic knows you're with the Angels in Heaven. I'm glad you were able to be here to see my last son be born, Nathan. Gabi misses her tio. I want to thank everyone who came and celebrated Olando's life with us. My mother is forever greatful. His love shines through all his friends and through our close family who knew Olando. Thank you for spending time with me, Vic and the kids every chance you got. Rest in Peace baby brother, your big sister loves you! Vic loves you! The kids love you! Be waiting for me at the Gates of Heaven when my time comes.

My Dearest Angel, My most wonderful Son, Life without you I could never imagine to come. Although its been a week my pain is so numb my heart is weak and I cry to the Lord in every direction I look. Every awaking moment I start to cry and fall to my knees and ask God why? My tears are thick my eyes cant see. But I know that you would say: Dad, Please Thank everyone for me Im sorry that even after all the times you told me to wear a seatbelt I didnt do it that day. Hoping with these words that others wont forget to protect themselves that way. Thank You Son for the finest 15 years of my life, our special relationship that no-one could get between of is ingraved in our hearts I Love you so very much "PAPA" mijito mio y estranando te con gada espido de mi vida.In the name of Jesus Christ AMEN!

Dear FAmily & Friends
I can't imagine your pain your going through right now. I would just like to send my condolences to you all. I didn't know Olando but my cousin Rayna dated him for a while and from what I know of him he is a WONDERFUL young man and may he Rest In Reace In Till We Meet Again. he will be loved and missed dearly...

I do not know you or your precious son Olando, but I heard of your tragedy when a friend of his wrote me about it. My heart bleeds for you and although I am a stranger to you I pray for you and Olando everyday. My 16 year old daughter was killed in an auto accident 6 months ago. I believe when a child is taken from this earth at such a young age it validates how special and precious they were. I know your son was this. I walk with you in pain from a distance. My deepest sympathy,

Dearest Hector and family, our deepest sympathy to you at this time of sorrow. You are always asking how Desirae is doing and how do things in life have to happen to children, not ever imagining that your life would also change from one day to the next, they are chosen by God and how proud you must be to have been chosen to be his father! You have suffered a great loss, we all have, because Orlando touched everyone in his own special way. He will be greatly missed, but know in your heart that you are a great father and He loved you dearly, you are in our prayers, if there is anything we can do, know that we are here. God Bless You!

Tia Tina, Hector and Family,
We don't always understand God's timing for bringing his saints home. But we should know that the body is the vessel that houses the spirit, and that now Olando's spirit is free to roam in the mansion that God has built for him in heaven. It is our human nature to mourn and ask WHY, but God tells us not to hold onto things of the world, but to hold fast to him, and to LEAN on HIM for understanding. This is my prayer for you all, GOD, I ask you in Jesus name that you cradle this family in your arms, and that You give them a dose of your Unconditional LOVE. Father, please catch and dry every tear drop of theirs that falls. God please begin to HEAL their broken hearts and REASSURE them that Olando is in your KINGDOM living free of the sins of this cold, cold WORLD. This is my prayer for this family, and I pray this in JESUS' MIGHTY NAME..AMEN.
We love you Tia and we are truly sorry that we cannot be there physically for you in this time of need, but please know that we are with you in our hearts and that we are praying for you, Tanisha, Joanna and Hector daily.

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.
