My Mijo
Despite all your ups and downs, I was there for you, loving you unconditionally. Even though you felt like you had no heart you loved your brother, sisters & I unconditionally. Even though you are not here in flesh, I know you are here in spirit. You will always be by my side watching over me no matter what. Please continue to watch over all of us. You will always be in my heart, thoughts, and prayers. As you were when you were here. I know that you couldn’t always be around, but you were in spirit. If my love was enough to save you, you would have lived forever. You will always be in my heart and I will cherish every memory of you until we meet in Heaven.
Your Loving Mother
Martino
It broke our hearts to lose you. But you did not go alone. For part of us went with you the day God called you home. You leave us here on earth to treasure your love and memory. But God has you in his keeping and we will always have you in our hearts. You left us with years of happiness, laughter and joy that will last forever more.

The moment that you died my heart was torn in two, one side with heartache, the other died with you. Our time together was special. So we’re the memories we made. Although you are not here now, those memories will never fade. Everyday‘s a struggle, and nothing feels the same. My heart breaks a little whenever I hear your name. I miss you dearly since you passed away. You meant the world to me each and every day. No one could ever take your place. You are irreplaceable; truly one of a kind. You will always be in my heart; forever on my mind.
I Love You Handsome, Love Always, Your Fiancée, Amada
