What I remember most about uncle Johnny was that he always wanted his boys with him. No matter how much needed to get done or how busy he was, he always wanted them w/him. They were his pride & joy! RIP Uncle Johnny!
I know (having been through this just 6 months ago) that no words can help ease the pain, but just know we are here for yall – today tomorrow and always. Everyday something happens which will remind me of my mom – sometimes I laugh and sometimes I cry. Its the little things that happen daily that will help you remember the laughs, the stories, the smiles and all the great times yall shared together, this is what will help ease the pain and get yall through this time. And even though it seems like you can never recover from your loss, it is these very memories that will help push the pain away and bring back the joy. These memories no one can take from you . They will always remain dear within you heart. WE LOVE YALL.
So sorry for your familes’ loss. May you all be blessed with may wonderful memories.
My deepest condolences to the Vega Family my your father, brother and son RIP
