I will for ever miss you , but I will never forget you my Best Friend . I love you so much. Thank you for being such a great friend. I will always remember us going to the Mall, getting Starbucks and having fun like there was no tomorrow.  I can’t seem to process your absence. I never in a million years would have imagine this nightmare. You were such a great human being, funny, loving and caring for others. You were special Efrain . I will always listen to your favorite Artists, Lady Gaga and Paulina Rubio and think of you . You will always have a place in my heart and my memories……💔

The last time we all hang out together was March 15th. We went to Knotts and you seemed good! Thank you for getting on the rides with Emmanuel. He loved his Nino so much! You left us too soon brother.

You were the best Nino and Tio Efrain! Spoiled the kids but also loved fighting with them. 
I still can’t believe you left us brother. This is hard to accept but I’m grateful for all the wonderful memories we have with you. I saw a big change in you the last 5 years. You seemed happy brother. I’m sorry we couldn’t do more for you. I’ll never forget everything you did for my kids. We love you so much.

Finding out that my friend that I've had a relationship for the past 19 years just passed away. We shared so many memories together me and him discovered Lady Gaga together back when she came out on THE HILLS. before I moved to DENVER,  me and him were super close, we used to go to the mall together,  go to movie premiers, we had similar tastes in most of the things that's why during that time he was MY BEST FRIEND, my family got to know him very well he became part of my family. We were there for each other when we came out of the closet. We were always there for each other ... I miss you so much Efrain Lopez you were and will always be MY LADY GAGA BUDDY.  I know were part aways for a bit but in my heart you will always be MY FRIEND  he was the only whom knew my personality very well. I will miss you.amd let's don't FORGET OUR MOBVIE WAS #BRIDESMAIDS 🥰... WE LOST A #LITTLEMONSTER. but you will live in our hearts forever

Siempre te recordaremos cada vez que íbamos a california siempre te mirábamos y ahora ya no te vamos a ver pero estarás siempre en nuestros corazones

This is who I picture when I think of you. Someone loving, silly and iridescent. I feel so blessed to have been given a glimpse into your authentic self and I cherish every conversation we had. I hope you always knew how much I love and cared about you and how much your mom and sisters loved you. Your absence will leave our family with an ache that I don’t think will ever heal because of the amount of love we have for you. I love you so much, I’ll miss you forever 💗

I’m so sorry brother. This was the last picture I have of us. I wish I could’ve taken more pictures with you, I wish I could’ve talked to you more, been there for you. Life will not be the same without you. I’m going to miss you so much. You were the best Nino/uncle/brother/son. Knowing you’re no longer suffering helps, but it hurts so bad, I can’t believe you’re gone. I promise you, I’ll make you proud. Please be happy & rest brother🙏🏽

The first time I met you and saw you was at Disney and the last time I saw you was when we took this photo. Thank you for the love you showed me, the memories we made, and the laughs we shared! I will never forget you and will love you in this lifetime and the next.
