My memories are what I have left,
and a lesson I will not forget.
The time has come when time is no more
and all that's left was once before.
The memories so dear and true,
those memories of me and you.
Although we fell and stumbled at times,
all those hills were necessary climbs.
All the times when your heart shined through,
Are the greatest memories I have of you.
I will always remember you, brother of mine
in my heart I will keep you, so I will be fine.
I will go forward with my head up high,
it might be hard, I cannot lie.
But in my heart you will be,
moving forward, you with me.
MOMMY LOVE YOU VERY MUCH
I love you so much miss you SIP we finally going to get justice

Well another year have come and I really missed you.I love so much.you are gone but not forgotten.kiss grandma for me.It hard every year when it close to your birthday and day I lost you.I get so angry you are not here.S.I.P I love you very much;
Day by day I think of you,
How can all of this be true?
I can't believe you're really gone,
I still can't accept it,
Even after so long.
Just the thought of you makes me cry,
I never even got the chance to say goodbye.
Every picture, every letter,
I don't know if it will ever get better.
I always smell your familiar scent,
It makes me think of all of the times we've spent.
I know we didn't always get along,
And every time we talked, it would always go wrong.
So many things I never got to say,
I never imagined you'd ever be so far away.
You were my brother,
And I loved you like no other.
In my heart you'll always be,
You'll be my guide and help me see.
I'll never forget your soothing voice,
I would take your place if I had a choice.
But now I have to let you rest,
Although without you my world's a mess.
I miss you with all of my heart,
I wish we never had to part.
I know you're always by my side,
So now I guess this is my goodbye...
Rest in Peace Manuel- Christina

Recently I went to queenie babyshower, and while I had a blast I kept wishing you were there. My last conversation with you was us planning to attend karaoke together. I wish things were different. I wish life dealt us different cards. Keenie told me before I'm somewhat like you. A wild card. And instead of getting upset I giggled. Because maybe a part of your soul lives within me. I love you

To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today
A hallowed place within my heart
Is where you'll always stay.
God knows why, with chilling touch,
Death gathers those we love so much,
And what now seems so strange and dim,
Will all be clear, when we meet Him.
I Knew you for a Moment
If tears could build a stairway
and thoughts a memory lane
I'd walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again
No Farewell words were spoken
No time to say good-bye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why.
My heart's still active in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.
But now I know you want us
To mourn

Came across a picture of us today
Reminded me of how we used to play
And all of my kiss blew in the wind
Felt like those days would never end
Now the hardest thing to learn
You were never really gone away
I'll see you again
I'll see you again some day
When I climb the stairs
And I meet you there
'Cus love don't go nowhere
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door
Can't wait to see your face
Save me a place
Your love can't be replaced
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door
Heaven's door
Feel your warm hands against my face
Show me how you love me almost every day
Never to tired to fix up a meal
Never to tired just to make me feel better
These memories will live with me forever
Now the hardest thing to learn
You were never really gone away
I'll see you again
I'll see you again some day
When I climb the stairs
And I meet you there
'Cus love don't go nowhere
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door
Can't wait to see your face
Save me a place
Your love will never be replaced
And you will see me
March up each step
Till I reach
Heaven's door
WORDS HE LIVED BY....
DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR, LOVE AND LOYALTY, YOU ALREADY KNOW, SAY NO MORE, AND WHEN YOU TOLD HIM YOU LOVED HIM, HE WOULD SAY I LOVE YOU MORE....
