I carry you in my ❤ every single day, I know you look over me every day.
You give me the strength I need.
Love you
Miss you
A's I sit here all alone wondering why this had to happen.I know in my heart you're in a better place watching over me.And I sit here getting ready to finally lay you down to rest . We are getting ready for your final resting place . And I know you'll finally be HAPPY. And as usual you'll be happy to know your friend / brother Ricky touch base with me this morning at 4:58am.
I love you Junito, and I miss you. Especially went I would get in from work and would say to How was your day VIEJA. NO ONE HAS EVER ASK ME AGAIN .
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN MY DEAR SON
I had so many photos and discarded of all of them except for one which I bring along with me to every office space I move to and place it right next to my work space. Not sure why I got rid of photos and videos but it must have been a reaction from when I had received the news from your brother while walking to the store. I remember it as if it was yesterday dropping to my knees on Randall ave and Taylor ave and just crying and walked back home to take a cab to your house. I still embrace all experiences I have had with you thru memory and talks with my wife. I rewind and replay them on a daily in my head while heading to work, at home, going out to eat, taking trips,etc. The moments we have to ourselves where we take the time to reminisce on things we value and endured in our life. Things we think about randomly when we are to ourselves. It's almost as if you never left Juan. You were truly and deeply a great friend of mine. It killed me inside the nights I would get out of work and call your phone after your passing becasue It was just a routine to just meet up with you and go hang out, or just talk in front of your home (Which your MOTHER ALWAYS threatened to call to cops on me LOL!!!). I sometimes wish you took my advice and went a different direction. I sometimes wish I could have spent more time with you and not took other times for granted. I guess these are thoughts and feelings we all encounter after we experience the unexpected and reflect on it. It shows us how we should appreciate life more and the presence of those who love us and care for us much more. But, it is sad that it takes a loss of a truly loved individual to recognize those things that really matter in life. You still somehow managed to show me another lesson in life.
