This is to Euan Jonty Arcia, but he is my uncle. He was the NICEST, KINDEST,  MOST LOVING and BEST Uncle i've had. It is a blessing to have him as my uncle. Without him, I wouldn't have all these gifts, and I wouldn't have all these good memories that I will cherish.
                                           Goodbye...................

I remember the first time we sat down to lunch together was at Din Tai Fung. I had told him that I was unable to get reservations and he magically made it happen. He was always so positive. We talked a lot about what it means to be a parent, the stresses and challenges of being in real estate, we used to talk about his dream home for his family. He loved being a father and he couldn’t say enough complementary and beautiful things about his wife and how hard she works and how beautiful she is . He had the most impressive sneaker collection I’ve ever seen. And his basketball commentary on Insta used to always crack me up. He will  missed. 

I am so heartfully sorry to hear Eujay passed.  He was so incredibly funny and such a wonderful husband and father. I will always remember laughing about music, cars, kids, life... Eujay was such a special soul that touched our hearts. I just think of him lately in Heaven smiling down on us and wondering why we are so sad - I can almost hear him joking about basketball... He was a true gift to all of us. 

So sad to hear of Euan's passing. He was just a really good guy and I am happy to have known him. Euan always had a positive attitude and was surprisingly funny, which caught me off guard considering his quiet demeanor.  The world was a better place with him in it. 

Part 3:  We did keep in touch through Facebook and IG and I remember the last correspondence with him was when I sent him a video of something so random back in 1994 we both always joked about back then I found it on YouTube to share a laugh. Then, he seemed to delete his fb and IG and didn’t hear from him since. It’s gonna take some time to get over the shock of this but I want to thank anyone for listening and allowing to share just a few of many memories with him.

My condolences to his family, his wife and his two beautiful children 

R.I.P my tag team partner for life

Part 2: From there , we connected and became good friends. We are both Filipino (I’m half) and I remember in 8th grade for a good part of the school year his father would pick me up to give us a ride to school every morning since we were both military brats and lived in base housing. His dad and my mom would eventually talk when picking me up and I remember my Mom saying how he likes our friendship cause he feels like his son has a friend he can fall back on and grow close to.  We would also walk home from school together everyday, along with (may he R.I.P), Hai Nguyen. Those were every day moments as we transition to our teens that you never forget. As we went to high school we weren’t as close but we eventually became close again during our junior and senior years as we had a mutual love for professional wrestling. We eventually went to a show together along with our friend Don Zapanta and we also became pseudo “tag team partners” where we would troll a mutual friend of ours at school and team up where I push him in the back and Euan does the “Stone Cold Stunner”on him (this could be construed as bullying but I think we all know what I’m getting at when it comes to horsing around with friends right? Lol). We always joked how we should go to the “Wcw power plant” together to train as wrestlers but only be accepted as tag team partners. It was a package deal with us!

Part 1 : 

I’m sitting here completely shocked and heart broken from this news. He was the first friend I made starting Center Junior High. I remember on the 1st day of school of 7th grade, he was sitting behind me in our literature class since the teacher seated us in alphabetical order and one of our first assignments was to get to know the person behind you and introduce them. I was first naturally, and i specifically remember saying in front of the class 

Me: “oh yeah this is…” *turns to ask name again*

Euan (in his soft mannered voice): ”Euan”

Me: “umm…You…in”

Lol..he definitely had a unique name but the awkwardness of being 12 and first day of school was something that was a bit funny to us

I am so sorry to hear of Euan’s passing. He was a friend in high school and we were always joking around in class. He always made me laugh and I have very happy memories of him. He always had a smile on his face. 

I'm very sorry for your loss, Euan and I went to high school together, we had a few classes together and he was one to always make you laugh. My thoughts and prayers are with his family
