Guestbook

  1. BJ, you have touched so many lives and put so many smiles on so many faces. You were the life of the party. You will be missed by so many of us. I know you are in heaven with your grandmother (Mary Jesse), Grandfather (Richard), Aunt(Yolanda) and you other grandfather (Chuy) and all of those who proceeded before you. I will cherish the memories I had with you and hold them close to my heart. You were one of a kind. Love you! I will take care of your brother and keep your memories alive.

  2. BJ,
    I had the pleasure of meeting you shortly after meeting your cousin Robert you joined us on one of our very first dates, floating the river. It was evident you possessed a remarkable ability to connect with people, as you knew everyone on the Guadalupe, I admired your intimate knowledge and respect for the river and its surroundings. Throughout the day, we talked & shared so many laughs making our 6hr float feel like a mear moment. Your infectious smile and charismatic personality were truly infectious. During our time together that day, you expressed your love and admiration for your cousin, delivering a heartfelt speech about his character and virtues. You were the perfect wingman for him, your unwavering support was a testament to your loyalty and love for Robert, as I fell in love with him I couldn’t help myself from falling in love with his family that day as well. You will forever hold a place in our hearts and in our love story. Your absence in this world will be deeply felt, we take solace in believing we will one day all reunite on the other side of the stars.
