June 6, 2015                                                                                                                                   Getting ready to take Jerry's ashes to their final resting place up at Oak hills Cemetary, San Jose, CA. It had been a long time comeing (Jerry rode shotgun in his 64 Galaxi). I felt like it was the end of an era when it was all said and done, but I was happy to see jerry's beautiful friends who attended. thank You All.

This is a picture from July, 2011. The last time we got to spend time with my brother, and of course the picture is not complete with-out his signature "rabbit ears". From L to R- Tachito, Mama, Casandra my daughter and of course our beloved brother. Rest in peace my brother.

Someday, According to Christ, he will set us free. He will come back. In the blink of an eye, as fast as the lightning flashes from the east to the west, he will come back. And everyone will see him...you will, I will. Bodies will push back the dirt and break the surface of the sea. The earth will tremble, the sky will roar, and those who do not know him will shudder. But in the hour you will not fear, because you know him.   Thinking of you little brother.

"The Alamo", San Antonio, Texas- 2007

Its another New Year and blessings to all who come here, Jerry would love all the attention, as he did in life. As I have been looking back at years behind me and reflecting on them I can honestly say that in all my travels and all the people ive met all over the world, I was never one to have roots ANYWHERE really, so I made many AQUAINTANCES but never a true BFF til Jerry I loved almost everything about him . The way he loved his family and friends was what I appreciated the most and was so grateful he shared such an awesome family with me. Jerry had so many people in his life but a select few really got to know him yet he shared with all in one way or another. So talented in so many things but mostly he was a master at knowing PEOPLE. Some people go through this life and dont really leave a legacy of love and memories the way Jerry did. I believe everything happens for a reason and even in his passing Jerry has left a print of love and life on my being. I believe anyone who truely knew him and loved him was as changed by his life as his passing. I dont grieve anymore cause he would hate the drama, I write to keep his and all the friends and family I have lost alive in my heart and celebrate everday the blessing of having him as well as others in my life no matter how short...So again I say rock on everyone ..trust god, clean up your spiritual house and be grateful for everone in your life that you love and loves you back....PEACE

This is my first time visiting this websight, I have tried in the past but it was too painful, still hurts but not as much, I'd like to share a dream i had a couple nights ago. I saw my brother jerry sitting in a blue convertible, wearing a white suit, he wanted me to sit in the back seat and hold  balloons while we cruised, as i looked up at the balloons i could see that they were immense, when we reached our destination i looked up and saw that there was only one small balloon left, when i asked" hey! where are all the balloons" someone responded " jerry gave them all away" then i woke up... everything in that dream represents jerry, the car, the balloons, the giving, what was really significant to me was the white suit he was wearing, for me it was confirmation that he is with our lord and savior...It really  helps  lessen the pain and brings a smile to my face when i think about it, but i still greatley miss my brother. Thank you GOD for the dream you have gifted to me, for only you know my heart.

i remember one time after my uncle took me to the movies we stopped at a 711 and he asked me what i wanted. i replied that i wanted a lipton iced tea..my tio looks at me like i had lost my mind..he says no u dont you want a snapple its better...we debated over lipton or snapple for a good ten minutes. eventually he went in bought bolth of the iced teas and said here try the lipton first which i did then he smiled REAL big and says now try THE SNAPPLE...which i did....HE WAS RIGHT AS USUAL...I NEVER AGAIN DRANK LIPTON...I WAS AN OFFICIAL SNAPPLE FAN....AND AS WE DROVE AWAY I REMEMBER HIM LOOKING AT ME WITH HIS FAMOUS GRIN AND HE SAYS "STICK WITH ME KID AND WE WILL GO FAR"..........    I MISS YOU SO MUCH UNCLE JERRY YOU WERE THE LIGHT THAT GUIDED MY WAY....FOREVER MISSED....YOUR NIECE JUANA..

"Happy Birthday Baby"

Today you would have been 47

You are missed by so many

I love you

M

 I remember how much she loved you and everytime you would always come and hug her and she would holler " kathy our boy is here" Even though at the end she couldnt remember much she would always ask about where you were and i always told her you were somewhere puttin out fire, she thought that was so cool.

I hope she is there with you now, it doesnt seem fair from where Im at that I had to lose you both in the same year. I dont know if I told you that that night we moved all the beds around in tne house and I had a melt down cause everything in her house was changing..You were on your way to Nicks and amillion other places but as you were getting in the car to go you must have heard me crying and as always put your arms around me abd cried with me..I always loved you for all the times you did that for me  .I have with me one of your most precious creations and her mom, who I know now has always been your greatest friend and support. I am doing my best to take care of them Jerry cause I know that would make you happy but Im losing ground financially I pray everynight to be able to help get the two of them through this PLEASE SEND HELP...I MISS YOU SO MUCH MOSTLY THE LITTLE THINGS... GIVE ME A SIGN YOUR WATCHING OVER US...XOXO...buckwheatous

Jerry never missed the setting of the sun...He would set an alarm on his phone to go off 5 minutes before the sunset so that he could call or text his friends to stop what they were doing and to come outside and enjoy the sunset with him....he appreciated so many things in life that we tend to take for granted... I for one will never see another beatiful sunset without thinking of enjoying them with my dear friend Jerry Magana..

Jerry you always made any situation tolerable no matter how bad things were. You always stayed positive and you always knew how to lighten up the moods of those around you. You made people feel individually special that's just the kind of man you were.I use to trip out on how genuinely concerned you were when it came to the well being of every child you encountered.Throughout the 9 years of hanging around you i have seen you do many many selfless and kind acts of love that was over the top and so much more than anybody else would do.When i think of you Jerry i see you laughing ,i see you hugging,i see you on your cell phone making a business deal,I see you so full of life, i see you dressed up and smelling good as your in a hurry to make it to the female u should have picked up hours earlier, I see you,I see you wearing your over-alls working on cars.Jerry your life was full of love for others,your kindhearted  heart always stood out from the rest. I thank The Almighty God that He made you the way you were. I'm glad i got to get to know who you were.I will see you when i get to heaven with you...God judges the hearts of His children rest in peace my brother.                             Your brother in Christ Junior -Raul

JERRY U WERE AN AWESOME FRIEND I WILL MISS U DEEPLY...I WILL MISS ALL THE TIMES U KAME TO MY HOUSE AND MADE ME LAUGH WEN I WAS FEELING SAD..REST IN PEACE JERRY UR IN A HAPPY PLACE NOW..I MISS U JERRY MAGANA<33

 Jerry, I am cracking up thinking of the cars that I lovingly referred to as Jerry's Kids I laughed when we would drive past a yellow tagged car barely hanging on to life and you would look and say "Just a few trips to pick and pull and she'll "purrrrrr like a kitten" I always knew at some point I would be pushing it around the neighborhood or if it ran in my driveway...You always made sure everynight I was homeless that I was safe for the night and if not you would say go to my Moms and you made sure that I got in I would wake up when everyone went to work "before dawn" Your Mom and I had\ no problem lol understanding each other, God love her we spoke the language of the heart...You have had my heart all these years, no one could make me laugh , cry, make me sooooooo mad.... You lived a crazy life we all did but you always were yourself you had my respect and admiration from the start it never ceased to amaze me what you could accomplish.. your loving heart and ability to keep it real, forgive but never forget remembering to tell your friend you loved them . you have been my best friend for so long My heart misses you in this life but I will celebrate instead of morn, I will not cry cause we will meet again You taught me so much... There was never a moment I would trade for the kings riches.... sometimes all that glitters is NOT gold maybe its one of Jerrys kids,,,With love Your friend  Katie
