Say their names

For the loved ones we have lost, for those that have shaped us, inspired us, challenged us and helped us along the way.

To those that we have lost this year due to COVID 19

To those that we have lost this year due to police brutality

To those we have lost this year due to racial injustice

To those that we have lost this year due to governmental negligence

To those brave ones, warriors, luchadorxs, we honor you.

-Professor Rosario

Granny Faye you went way to soon. I’ll forever cherish your memory and keep your legacy alive. You were like a second mother to me, and because of you I never went without. If I called you were coming without hesitation. I’m so grateful for you because you taught me so much and contributed to who I am today. I love you and miss you forever.

After Great Pain a Formal Feeling Comes by Emily Dickinson

After great pain a formal feeling comes–
The nerves sit ceremonious like tombs;
The stiff Heart questions–was it He that bore?
And yesterday–or centuries before?

The feet, mechanical, go round
A wooden way
Of ground, or air, or ought,
Regardless grown,
A quartz contentment, like a stone.

This is the hour of lead
Remembered if outlived,
As freezing persons recollect the snow–
First chill, then stupor, then the letting go.
---
It's been such a long time since you left. Every day I see little bits of love you left with our family and I am so appreciative that I spent as much time with you as I did.

My Father and My Grandfather

2020-10-29 16:42:32 UTC

You two were the most consistent men in my life. I think about both of you often, and I even named my son after you both. You are loved and missed dearly. Thank you both for your guidance and the memories. I love ya'll!

My dad & grandma Betty

2020-11-01 04:24:25 UTC

My father passed when I was only 3 years old, and without him i feel as though a piece of me is missing. It’s crazy because many people don’t have memories from when they were 3 years old but I remember vividly my father teaching me my prayer that I still say to this day, “Angels east, angels west, north and south just do your best and guard her while she rests, Amen” He took it from his favorite movie titled, cradle 2 the grave.
My grandma Betty was my best friend, she passed when I was about 7 or 8 from breast cancer.. she was a fighter. Her birthday is actually today, Halloween. We held a balloon release for her at my moms house, I miss her dearly, we had this saying “Bye, Bye bye, see you later sweet potato, bye” It sounds better in person lol.

Cousin

2020-11-01 14:25:44 UTC

One of my cousins that I grew up with was in jail last year. He did his time and was about to get out within a month. However, one day he felt as if someone was after him, Begged the officers to not let him be out in the field or outside. Once alone, he was killed. He was a sweet person, so young and full of life just had a tough life. No one deserves to die the way he did. He is greatly missed by his family, especially his father being that he was his parents only son. I know he is in a better place, without any more pain. I love you and continue to watch over us.

Farewell Uncle

2020-11-01 17:51:50 UTC

Really god?! There is no happy ending only a good start....God didn't give much time with my uncle a day that was it, not a enough time to get to know him. The only memories I have of him is when I first meet him in Tuscon for a family reunion the first time and the last time.
Question god?.. You brought my family back together recently just to take him away??? Im confused!
Now I know his in a better place looking over all his loves. I was angry that my mom didn't have her side of the family in my live but you guys are in it, and I love them for that.
Farewell Raul Parra

Daughter....
My daughter is so loving and respectful. She has a beautiful smile with a big heart. Although she’s only 4 I’ve feel like she’s been here before. When I’m feeling down I look at her to brighten my day. I could go on and on but I’m going to end it right here.

2020-11-01 21:01:06 UTC

To All The Family And Friends That Passed On

I Love You Guys With All Of My Heart Forever And Always. I Pray That You Keep Me Covered And I Will Always Do My Best At Whatever I Do. There’s Been So Much Pain But It’s Life I Have To Continue With Mines. I Will Alway Was Remember You Guys I Love Y’all So Much

Heaven has received another angel,

The night sky another star.

Your life has become a loving memory.

I know you will never be far.

I know you are watching over me

As my life goes on.

I will treasure the memories I have of you.

I can't believe you're gone.

You were a loving, caring granddad.

You were there for me a lot.

You will always hold a place in my heart,

A loving, treasured spot.

You were really one in a million,

A cut above the rest.

All who knew you would agree.

You simply were the best.

So, Granddad, I will say goodbye.

I love and miss you with all my heart,

But as long as I have my loving memories,

We will never be too far apart.

Dear World

Dear Friend,

2020-11-02 05:42:44 UTC

I haven’t wrote about you in a while, but I know that you are always with me. When I talk about you, I feel guilty sometimes that I wasn’t able to talk with you on your last few days. Since you passed, I vowed to be better with my friendships throughout all its journeys. I miss breakfasts at Waffle House with you. 💔I know you are there. Guiding me and making sure I’m with the right crowds, away from the crazies lol. Out of all the friends I have, you made me laugh the most. I miss you dear friend.

Dear, whoever I am thinking about as I type these words. I'm not really sure who I want to write this out to I've had so many tragic events that happened in my life span that is just so hard to choose just one or two. I just want to say thank you for the life that you contribute to why your while you were here, thank you for making my life a happier place when you were here. Sometimes I forget that you are dead but I think that's normal.

Dear Mr. Mark, I miss you, Mama's new boyfriend is okay I like him he's fine but he's not you. Every day I walk into my sister's living room I see you every day hanging up on that wall I know I always say Hello message I'm just hey I miss you just thinking about you cuz I really do miss you.

Dear great-grandma, I'm sorry you had to by the way that you did. But you were long gone before you actually died. I'm glad that you're no longer suffering and that you’re in a place with the people that you love. I love and I miss you hopefully you are watching over me but don't tell my mama what I'm doing down here. She wouldn't really be disappointed but it is also not to laugh that she wishes me to have. I know I'll see you soon but hopefully not too soon.

In Memory of My Great Aunt Carrie

2020-11-02 19:01:31 UTC

Aunt Carrie, you are the reason I survived. You held my mother down when my father died and her world fell apart. 6 children that were not your own often sleeping on the floor and crowded in your bed. Thank you for dragging us to church and helping us find faith, values and spiritual direction. I miss you so much, but I am happy knowing you are with your sisters. May we all be self-less and warm hearted. See you again one day I truly hope and believe.

I Memory of My Great Grandmother Mary Lee Warren

2020-11-03 01:44:58 UTC

You were my heart and the reason I am who I am today. Gone but Never Forgotten!

This is to my grandmother.

2020-11-08 21:35:37 UTC

The first person to truly believe in me. Her presence is forever felt in my heart.

I'll never forget you Aunt Doreece

2020-11-12 16:07:53 UTC

I've been searching for the words to say, we lost you tragically just a few months ago and I am still struggling to understand.

I know you suffered a lot in life and held on as long as you could. Thank you for sharing so much love with us. Here's a poem for you:

Trust in God's Plan

It's hard to understand
Why God takes those we love.
Does He need them more than we do,
In Heaven up above?
No one on earth can pretend
To know what's in God's plan.
All we can do is take it on faith
And trust we'll see our loved ones again.

Mi Princesa

My Grandmother always had the name nickname of princess in the neighborhood because she was so small and light fair, freckled skin, very pretty as you can see. she was the last grandmother i had left.
Llora si quieres, pero no por mucho tiempo en el dulce vuelo de mi alma

Mi princesa,

In Loving Memory of My Aunt Annie

2020-11-17 06:27:29 UTC

To Those Whom I Love & Those Who Love Me When I am gone, release me, let me go.
I have so many things to see and do,
You mustn't tie yourself to me with too many tears,
But be thankful we had so many good years. I gave you my love, and you can only guess
How much you've given me in happiness.
I thank you for the love that you have shown,
But now it is time I traveled on alone. So grieve for me a while, if grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust. It is only for a while that we must part,
So treasure the memories within your heart. I won't be far away for life goes on.
And if you need me, call and I will come. Though you can't see or touch me, I will be near.
And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear,
All my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you come this way alone,
I'll greet you with a smile and a 'Welcome Home'.
