Hey little cousin. Your respect You would call me Titi & it was my honor!! I will always love ❤️ & miss you. Your laugh , hugs & kisses . Like Your “LOUD” Puerto Rican voice that when I was lost in the hospital guided me right to you!! I got to hug & kiss you hi & bye cuz you were going to have a test done. I wish I wasn’t lost so that I could have had longer time to visit and tell you to calm down now since I had already found you!!! Your long fight to get better and spend more time with your precious girls. They will always carry you in their hearts because they are one of the best parts of you. The only thing is you won’t suffer anymore or have painful procedures. The worst part is not having you!! I reminisce on the day that you surprised us for New Years! You, Dee & the girls had a blast! I’m so happy I captured it on camera to have forever. Only the good die young is so on point when it comes to you. I’m still in disbelief that you’re gone. I hope you know that you’re the only person who he spent hours waiting in a hospital until he knew you were out of the woods. I know Mami and Daddy will take you under their wings , love & protect you. If Daddy was alive you know he would of honored you by what he knew best, making a feast to let everyone grieve and not worry about the rest. Say hi to them for me.
Sending my heartfelt sincere condolences to the family . May God wrap his arms around you and give you peace and comfort during this difficult time .
