Hi My Birdy,
I want to thank you for the Valentines gift, hearing your voice and seeing you as you physically were, meant more to me than anything! Between Your Dad, Sarah and I, I'm surprised the replay buttons still function! Your Dad and I are going to make a Memorial Garden for You, TJ, Eugene, Hunter, Niall, and Steven. I'm hopefully. finally, going to get that special memorial marker for you so we can make the outside memorial for you as well! You will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN! I promise you that! I miss you so much, I can't wait to be with you,you are Forever My Heart! I love you My Birdy, with all my heart, For all Eternity!

Hi My Birdy, I miss you so much! I am so thankful for all our memories, we had some amazing times together, quiet moments that are priceless to me, adventures that are out of this world. I would have followed you anywhere! No matter what the adventure, I knew you would always keep me safe (even against a talking parrot). We laughed so much that night. Your candle will Forever burn bright. I can't wait to be with you again, and to many new adventures.I love You My Birdy, with all My heart, For all Eternity! XOXOXOXO

Though I am heartbroken from the loss of My Birdy. My Hero, My Heart, My Son, I couldn't be prouder of the man he is, and the protection he had/has for his brothers! I knew from the time he was born, that Curtis had the heart of a Lion, the soul of a Warrior, and a determination that could not be broken. Fear was not an option, protecting others is how he lived his life. Curtis found ways to make you laugh, when you wanted to cry, be happy, when you were really pissed off, turn the negative into the positive, and get you to achieve what you felt was impossible. Curtis knew no limits! One of the many things I love about My Birdy was the love he has for his brothers (Suicide Charley 1/7). Curtis once told me, "Mama, I love you with all my heart, I will always be with you, though when I am with my brothers they come first. I will protect them and get them home safely to their families, no matter what the cost." The Bond Of Brotherhood will never be broken, for this I am Forever Grateful! My Son, CPL Curtis Joseph Duarte, I am so proud of you, Know that you are and Forever will be "Mama's Little Birdy!"
