His Life

Gone too soon

December 17, 2012

I remember when Oscar was born, didn't exactly know how much he weighed but just one look, and i thought  that is a gigantic baby. . . My little brother, A healthy and bonny boy grew to be one tall and energetic yet humble and very harmless man. Everyone who knew Oscar knows he couldn't harm a fly.

 

I remember all of the wonderful things that he did growing up, he was always there for me, and for all of us, regardless of what directions we took or what happened in our lives. I especially loved to watch his eyes light up whenever he saw all of us at home. 

A big dreamer he was. . . big life was his, he lived his life to the fullest never caring so much about tomorrow,  somehow he must have known he was sorted out no matter what.


My brother was always a step ahead of all of us, any opportunity in life  and he would grab it like there's no other, . . . . ever. He was out by himself as young as 12 about age 15 he had his life figured out. We would question him on his early fatherhood and before we could get an answer there was another one  on the way, evidently there was a reason for his rush. 
he loved his children dearly.  On many occasions he could give anything to have his children around him and healthy. He spoke for his children never giving up even when times were hard.
I now begin to understand why my brother never let time pass him by. He might have made countless mistakes with his life but definitely learned from them, after all  "whoever makes no mistake has nothing to learn."
He might have died young but he lived life and fought for his last breath like a true worrier. 


One of the things that I respected the most about my brother was his determination to live his life the way he wanted, just as he describes on his facebook profile " I believe in God and I live my life by my own principals " His goals and aspirations were different than my own, but that didn’t mean that him and I weren’t close. He was a friend to me and even though we lived far apart, we always talked and were there for each other whenever needed.

I admired his pure heart, I had several meltdown moments with him but he was always the first one to come around to apologize without caring who's fault it was. His anger would not survive a minute if at all he would, of which i seldom saw


It is so hard to come to terms with his demise because his death was so sudden. I now look at my phone I don't know what do with his contact number, and his messages.  I will miss seeing his caller id on the screen of my phone, I will miss quarreling him about his life, I will miss his big genuine grin when he was happy for everyone's success, I will miss his loud thud on the ground when he walks, I will miss his big appetite for food, I will miss his presence in our kitchen at home where we ate and told stories and fought and loved and cried and gossiped and stupidly judged each other together. I will dearly miss my brother's lazy walk and how he rubbed his nose before talking.
I will miss my brother more than words can say. He may be gone but his memory will live on in our hearts forever.

Friends and family, thank you for your support and kindness be blessed and feel free to add stories or pictures or even your names and short messages for the memory of dear Oscar.


Forever missed. . . .
