ForeverMissed
Large image

Taken too early in life, this memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Alexander Julian Huertas, 8, born on March 5, 2005 and passed away on August 24, 2013.

Alex was one of the best son's any mother or father could have wished for. His love for life, his love for his family and friends, ambition to learn and his warm heart, and his desire to please everyone he came in contact with is what made him so special to us and the community he left behind.

It has been astounding to us as a family to see how at 8 years old Alex was able to touch so many lives. During his short time here, He has left a legacy of kindness and compassion that will live on in his honor. As a family we are proud of Alex's example that one person can make such a difference in the world. His life is a testament that kindness, compassion and love resonates beyond time.

The 8 years of joy he brought to our family is a void that can never be refilled. Taken and given his wings, he will be an angel to all of us. Until we take our own last breaths within our life own lives, we're only separated by time from this point on...

                                                                          We love you and miss you,

                                                                          Mom, Dad, Gavin and Nathaniel




(story line, additional pictures, videos and stories from our family are being edited and will be updated as soon as they are ready..... ) 

Please post tributes below, and post stories or encounters with Alex under the STORY tab. We want to capture your memories of Alexander and any additional photos you may have of our boy. Thank you for your contribution..

Two years ago today…

Our lives changed and it will never be the same again. Our hearts stopped for a second, and broke into millions of pieces. We lost a part of my heart, a part of our future, and I defiantly lost part of my fatherhood that will never be replaced. Memories which make today full of sadness, sorrow and above all else pain that just won’t go away. To see our lives continuing without you, creating new memories without you and missing out on what could have been.

Two years ago today…

Our lives were put upside down and although time has passed it’s still the same. It doesn’t take an anniversary to make this any worse. It’s just a day now to remind us on the day our family was forever changed. It’s covered, disguised and still silently suffering to move on…

Two years ago today…

The choices, decisions or other events, which could have taken its place, how life could have been if other choices were made. How they forever made such an impact on our family, our friends and the community which you were and still are a part of.

Two years ago today…

We felt pain which we could not explain. We felt lost as if we had no control. We were broken into shattered pieces that will never be mended together back again. Our family was tested in so many ways, in so many directions yet today, we continue that pain and struggle.

Two years ago today…

We’re reminded on how grateful we are you were put in our lives. The love you put in our hearts and the happiness you brought to all us in so many different ways which will forever continue.

Two years ago today…

Our lives changed but we will find ways to honor your life, your love and the time you spent on this earth. We will move on as a family, as individuals but broken but only until we meet again.

Two years ago today…

We started our countdown until God makes our family whole again.

They say there is a reason,
They say time will heal,
But neither time nor reason,
Will change the way I feel,
For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind my smile,
No-one knows how many times,
I have broken down and cried,
I want to tell you something,
So there won't be any doubt,
Your so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to live without.

To my handsome son Alexander .. Yet another family Christmas without you..yet another broken heart during the holidays. We hope that you fill our home tonight with your presence and love to our hearts while the family gathers. We lite a candle in the family room next to your picture to remind us of the bright and shiny light you were once were in our lives. Your warmth, laughter, jokes and caring heart has left our home with an awkward silence that we all just seem to just want to make believe is not there..Your deeply missed and no one can ever fill the void left in our hearts. The presents we knew you would love this year were given to children that otherwise would not have a present to open tonight. We hope that they feel the love and happiness upon them as they open their presents late tonight or first thing in the morning. Although our hearts are forever broken, we hope that your Christmas in Heaven is filed with us remembering you, lots of love and joy with all our other family members whom are with you tonight. Merry Christmas Papi...Your always Forever Loved and Forever Missed..

I can't believe a year has passed yet your smile and voice are still fresh in my head. The birthmark on your face such a perfect sprinkle on an already beautiful face. I imagine you playing now, never knowing the sorrow left behind and the impact you have made. Time has stood still for you and it drags on for those of us left behind. I know we all miss you so much and you are often a topic of conversation. Your early departure still brings tears to our eyes but we also laugh at some of the things we watched you do. I miss you Alex, I wish we could be having a fart challenge... I know you get that!! I have faith we will see each other again, right now you are in the best of hands with all the other people in our family I love and miss dearly. I thought of you at work yesterday all day as I was trying to make people better for their families. I am working hard for my ticket to heaven to be with you all. =) I love you baby boy you are always and forever my first nephew!! You will always be a part of my count. My handsome perfect nephew all a titi could ever want in a boy!

It has been a year and it is still hard to believe you are no longer with us. We are truly lucky to have met you; Yadier thinks about you quite often as we all do. As a new season approaches, whether it's for baseball, soccer or school, Yadier often wonders if this time around you guys would be together. You will always live in out hearts and in our memories. We know you are looking down from heaven at all of us and I hope you know that it was truly an honor to have met you.
Love,
Erika, Pat, Yadier, Noel and Abby.

God works in mysterious ways.
He put you here on earth
where he needs you to be.
And you always did what he needed you to do.

He gave you strength, wisdom and courage
and you took all he gave you
Reached out to all walks of life
and found a way to become a part of their lives.

He filled you with a tremendous amount of love
You turned it around and shared with others..
Living day by day and filling others with your caring heart.
Filling ours with joy and happiness..

Best of all, God gave you to all of us!
As a Friend to others and to your community,
As a Grandson, Cousin and Sibling to your family and brothers
But most of all, he gave you to Dena and I as our son.
And that's the most beautiful blessing anyone could have ever asked for.

Although your time on earth was short,
You made an impact on us and everyone else.
And you made us the family we are today.

Now were separated by body and soul
and you left a void in our hearts and in our home.
All we can do is wait and only dream of you
until we are reunited once again and made whole.

Every night we lay down and pray with all we only have left to one day
Hear your sweet voice, saying I love you!
Feeling your warmth of your body when you hug us and held us tight
Brightening up the room with those beautiful eyes that
and seeing your smile as you give us sweet kisses which always made our days.
To only be separated now by these dreams and memories
Until God fills the void we are now left with
Making us whole once again
As a family, as we were intended to be.

God works in mysterious ways,
He put you where he needs you to be now.
It may not be where we want you now
We'll question but never know why,
But we know he has you by his side,
watching over all of us ..

Onion time!

September 6, 2013

As I was sitting next to you for lunch on July 27th, all of the kids were exploring the cabin, but you where having lunch quietly and peacefully. I took a seat next to you and there you were having a burger without cheese, with a side of cut up onion's, raw Onion's. I remember turning around and saying something to your dad that was so busy BBQing and your mom that was making her dieting food :) and telling them how strange it was for an 8 year old kid to eat raw onions. But, instead, I silently smiled and kept eating while I watched you eat, since it was just me and you at the table. You looked up at me and smiled back at me with your cheeks full of food. I will never forget that moment. It was as if you knew what I was thinking.

Everytime I close my eyes all I see is you in that moment, and I smile to my self. Because out of all the times that you came over to my house and I went over yours that was the one moment that we were able to connect in a sweet silly way. Since you were always on the go with Aidan and Gavin it was impossible to just sit and talk. I still imagine you running up the stairs from my house and asking me for juice or an ice cream sandwich. The little time we had to know you will always be engraved in our hearts, and we truly miss you dearly. Only you can see how sad we are that you are not physically here, but I try to find comfort that your spirit is always with us. I will always remember your smile, your face and your sweet way to be.
