Some say you are too
Painful to remember,
I say you are too beautiful
And precious to forget.
Love and Miss you Forever

The anniversary of your passing is always the saddest day of the year for me. The word anniversary no longer means a joyous celebration to me. The word anniversary now has a completely different meaning for me. The holidays are always so sad for me because I remember how excited you use to get seeing the whole family this time of year. Life is not the same without you.

On the day you took your last breath, I found myself asking how do I say good-bye to someone I have loved my whole life. I miss you dearly and I can't wait unti we meet again. Oh the rapture of that day will be a joyous one.

Go forth today, by the help of God, vowing and declaring that in life — come poverty, come wealth; in death — come pain or come what may. The fever of life is over.
Take my hand and lead me now, until that time when we shall meet again, on that day where there is no sunset and no dawn. Amen. ~Author Unknown

I hide my tears when I say your name but the pain in my heart is still the same. Although I smile and seem carefree, I won't be happy again until the day I join you. ♡♥♡♥

My sweet Erika. Oh how I miss you. You were the first person I met when I moved to El Paso and we clicked immediately. Even though I only had a little over a year with you, you will always have a very special place in my heart. I will miss and love you always and look forward to seeing you again my sweet, beautiful, loving friend.

I can't believe it's been three years. I've thought about you everyday. I think about all the fun memories we shared while growing up. Listening to music, Janet Jackson was one of your favorites. And playing with our makeup and doing our hair. Going to movies and shopping! And walking around the neighborhoods talking and laughing! You always had the best laugh! I miss you friend! And you'll always have a special place in my heart! Love you always and forever!

Erika,
I stopped to think about you today on the anniversary of your passing. I can't believe it's been three years. I think of you often but today was especially hard. Your nephew has gotten so big and had his baptism today. But you know that already. You were there w him. Lesley and Travis have also grown so much. But you know that too. Thank you for watching over them. I can tell that your grandmother also misses you bunches. Thank you for keeping her safe. Say hi to your grandfather for me. I miss him too. Rip our dear Erika. God has you in his arms and I will always have you in my heart.

Little did we know God was going to call your name two years ago today. In life I loved you dearly and in death I still do. Part of me went with you on that unforgettable day. As our family chain starts to break, I look forward to the day when the chain will one day link again. We miss you dearly and always will.

You never said I'm leaving, you never said good-bye. You were gone before we knew it. How lucky was I to have known somebody that makes saying good-bye so hard? You will be forever missed and always in our hearts.

The pain of you're absence never goes away. In life I loved you dearly, in death I love you still. Life is not the same without you. I miss our good times together.

Juarez

One time Erika, some black guy that used to be a friend of ours and I went to Juarez Mexico to go eat and Erika asked how do you say chicken in spanish because she was considering ordering chicken and the black guy that was with us said "Pollo." Then some older mexican man sitting nearby laughed because he thought it was funny that a black guy was teaching spanish to a mexican girl instead of the other way around. Our black friend started laughing when he noticed the mexican guy laughing. I chuckled a little bit and so did Erika. I miss the good old days of hanging out with Erika. Life is not the same without her.
Christmas
November 14, 2014
One cold night after we finished our christmas shopping, you asked me if we could go buy blankets for the needy, and hand out a blanket to every homeless person that we saw. At first I wasn't thrilled at the idea of driving around all over town hunting down homeless people, but how could I turn down such a sweet gesture. So, we went to the thrift store and you bought a stack of blankets at a good price, and then we drove around UTEP and downtown and you gave out a blanket to every homeless person sleeping on the cold pavement or bench.
You were always thinking of others. You were always so kind to everybody, even to the people that were mean to you.
