I can’t express how many times I think of the memories we could have made because of you and with you, although I was 10 yrs old I still remember you always coordinating the family gatherings, because of you we were always together, and you recorded everything. The sleepovers with my cousins at your house I will never forget they were so much fun, I would walk into the living room of your home and there you were on the edge of your black leather couch watching your shows and you would do this thing with your fingers and flick them really fast being funny and silly with me. I remember me and Abdonsito staying up late playing Wolfenstein with you, your score was always hard to beat. It was always fun hanging out with you. You were special we all knew it. I know you are watching over us now with my grandpa, grandma and my little cousin Georgie. We miss you dearly tio.
