dad, today’s your birthday I still remember the last time I spent with you on your birthday you took me to Disney and instead of doing something for yourself you did something for me and I’ll never forget that moment cause I also got to make a memory of me going to Disney with you and me thank you so much for an experience. I’ll never forget and happy birthday.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

dad, tomorrow it’s gonna be Father’s Day and Father’s Day is a little hard because I see all the other kids with their dads and you’re not here and I just wanna say I hope you’re here watching me and being here with me cause I believe you’re still here in spirit with me because I believe that you’re here with me and I know I’m gonna see you in some form tomorrow but anyway I love you and I hope you’re having fun in heaven

I miss you. The world misses you. I love you.

It’s been a year… a year and everyday you have been in my thoughts. You never got to meet my son. Or see your god daughter grow up and Your daughter how beautiful she is and the little woman she’s becoming.. there’s still so much sadness. I pray and hope you’re with our Abuelas. With your father. We miss you Jorgito…. So much.

Tomorrow will be a year since God welcomed you into his kingdom and I still wake up asking myself if this is real. Your loss has left a hole that’s impossible to fill, although  we know your spirit is with us. Like when we see a boat.. the ocean… fish, or when a light flickers and we yell “JORGITO!”, + every time we hear Hotel California and Guns and Roses, and especially when Viv watches old baby videos of both of you playing. She loves hearing your voice…she misses it. I know you’re smiling and laughing with her and I know you’re so proud of her. Thank you for the signs, keep letting us know you’re there 💜 you’re incredibly missed.

My uncle was on of the best uncles any one can ask for he was a great man nothing or anything will take away the pain of losing him I will forever miss him may he rest in peace❤️

I love my daddy I love my daddy I love my daddy and he loves me 🎵🎶🎶🎵

I am sorry for everyone who was related to Jorge or new him in case you are wondering I’m Vivian’s best friend she is very sweet and did not deserve  it I feel very bad for her she is so nice and caring I love her so much I am so sorry for her loss-Madison Yanez

I had wonderful time with him and he was the light of my world

I am the lucky ‘s girl in the world I had a dad who love me and all of you

I miss my dad so much and he was the one who made me laugh and smile and he will always be with us

You were a son, a grandson, a brother, an uncle, a cousin, a nephew and Vivians daddy. Your loss is immeasurable. You taught me so many things during the 15 years I knew you. I promise to teach Vivian everything you showed me, and to keep your memory alive with all the beautiful and funny moments you gave us. You may have left your body, but your heart lives in Viv. 

Rest easy knowing she will be surrounded by those who cherished your presence and loved you unconditionally.

We grew up together, and I was with Jorge every step of the way. I was with Jorge while we waited for Vivian to be born. I helped him move many times. We were always there for each other and he will never be forgotten.

 Jorge, you were loved more than you know and I know you are walking with Jesus now. You were a great friend and I was blessed to have you in my life

Dear Gaby,
I pray that The Most High provides you with the strength needed to endure this pain. My condolences to you and your family.

To my wonderful tio jorgito who brought nothing but joy and laughter into my life words can’t even describe the pain I feel with you gone. I will always remember the fun times I had with you and the days we would spend in the pool at the old house. You were such an amazing tio to me and I remember how happy you were to tell people that your big princess made it into lourdes. I will never forget the first car ride I had with you when you got to pick me up from school the smile that you had was so bright and I was so happy I got to hangout with my tio or whenever I would walk into the pharmacy and run and give you a big hug. Another memory I will never forget is when every time you saw me you would carry me on your back and run around the house no matter how old I was. I miss you so much and I forever promise to take care of vivan who I know was your everything and the person you loved most. I will always love you forever-  Love your niece Ella❤️

My deepest sympathy to Gaby during this extremely difficult time🙏🏽. Condolences to the entire family.  May Jorge rest in eternal peace with the Lord as the host of angels welcome him to his heavenly ‘home.’  Prayers ascending for the entire family.

Poem to Gabriela del Pilar:

In the shadows of sorrow, hearts heavy with pain, A love once vibrant, now echoes in the rain. 

 Silent tears cascade, memories unfold, A tragic tale of a love story untold. 

 Gone is the laughter, replaced by a sigh, In the hushed whispers of a final goodbye. 

 Yet, in the echoes of loss, a spirit remains, Love’s essence endures, breaking grief’s
Beneath the moon’s somber glow, 
a grief-stricken sky, Where whispers of love, in the wind, softly sigh. 

 A symphony of sorrow, notes heavy with despair, A lament for a love that once filled the air. 

 Through the tear-stained verses of a mournful song, The echoes of your pain resonate strong. 

 In the tapestry of time, where memories are weaved, A legacy of love, in your heart, forever perceived.

In the depths of loss, where shadows confide, A whispered promise, in faith, you’ll abide. 

 God’s grace, a balm for wounds that won’t cease, Hope blooms in sorrow, offering solace and peace. 

 Though the path is heavy, the burden immense, Trust in the divine, where love finds recompense. 

 Through the veil of grief, a glimmer of light, Guiding your soul, through the darkest of night.

Gabrielita del Pilar,

Your abuela Coco is praying  a daily  🩷 Rosary here in Costa Rica for you. 
May you find the strength, peace, and hope needed in this difficult time.
She, Cecilia and Tico stand very close to you, and
send our love to you, Ruben, Marielena and George.  We didn't get to know Jorge, but Francisco and Paula shared with us how beautiful person he was and how much he loved you.  Un gran abrazo de tus tíos y tu abuela.

My heart is broken by the news. I have known Jorgito since he was at least 3. He’s been a constant in my life as the little brother to my best friend- which in turn was like my little brother. From the days at your house in Westchester, to hanging out in Barbie’s room in the house in Kendall. Jorgito I hope you have found peace. Love you tremendously! My heart goes out to your sisters, mother and daughter

To my new cousin Jorge,
We didn’t share too many times together but I am so grateful that I had the privilege of getting to know you. You loved my cousin Gaby and you made her happy, and that makes you my family. This is the only picture I have with just you, but it means a lot to me because that day in Brooklyn was one filled with laughter and joy. And that’s how I will remember you forever. Thank you for loving my cousin. Thank you for the few memories we shared. Sending you love and prayers. May your soul find rest, peace and the love of God.

Great dinner son in law. You were a great guide. I’m so  glad we had the opportunity to share.

Words cannot express my feelings about Jorge’s departure.
I still see him as a very young 10 year old having a great time during my son’s (Gabriel) 10th bday stay over party!  Full of life and wonder…  and that’s how I will always remember him 💝

With sincerest sympathy for you and your family. May God give you the strength to endure.

I’m so sorry for your loss Gabby. I can’t imagine what you’re going through but I wanted to send some love and prayers your way. I will pray for God to give you strength through this painful time. TRiO always has your back! Once again I send my condolences to you and Jorge’s family.

My deepest condolences and prayers for comfort to all of you.

Mi querida Gabrielita siento mucho la partida de tu adorado esposo y me uno con toda la familia a orar por su descanso eterno . Un abrazo grande para ti y toda la familia . Descanze en paz te quiero mucho Dios te de fortaleza . Con mucho amor .

I knew Jorge since kindergarten in St. Brendan elementary. He was always a great guy. My condolences to his family and friends. He will be missed. May he rest in peace

Breakfast at old San Juan - La caleta - October 2023

Thanksgiving’s 2023 at Cardenas residence. Dear Gabriela,

During this difficult time, may you find strength in the beautiful memories you shared and the love that will forever connect you. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and I am here for you in any way you may need.

Thanks for the time you spend with our family. I will remember you for your positive attitude and great smile. I sent my family love to you and will remember you as a cousin and friend.

My sincere condolences to Jorge’s family and friends. 

My brother Marcelo and I went to St. Brendan and were friends with Jorge since we were 5 years old. We visited his house many times and even went on a cruise together.

Although we didn’t stay in touch in recent years, he was considered family for us, as is everyone from our early St. Brendan days.

Jorge was a genuinely nice person. He didn’t have a mean bone in his body, and the world greatly benefited from his existence. While it is an extremely tough loss for all who knew and loved him, God gained one of his very best angels back.

 Jorge lived his blessed and fulfilling life to the fullest, and his beautiful life should be celebrated. 

We will all miss him dearly, until the day comes where we are all reunited in heaven. Jorge, I will always remember your kind demeanor and you will live on in our memories. 

I love you bro and look forward to seeing you again on the other side.

Estimada familia y allegados de Jorge,

Mis más sentidas condolencias. Aunque vi a Jorge en contadas ocasiones, siempre percibí su disposición a ayudar y su espíritu servicial. Los pocos recuerdos que guardo de él siempre serán alegres. Mis pensamientos están con ustedes en este difícil momento.

Que descanse en paz, Jorge.

Abrazo fuerte,

Paula Echeverría Cárdenas

I will always remember Jorge’s vibrant personality and how much fun he was to be around—and how he made Gabs laugh. This is an unimaginable loss. My heart is with Gabriela, his daughter, and the family 🤍 We will miss you Jorge.
