without you near me, somewhere along the way I lost my light and I’ve never been able to find it again. 8 years later I cannot climb myself out of the hole your absence left in my heart. I really wish you knew how much you meant to me bubba. My life will never be as bright or vibrant as it was when you were here.

I miss you everyday. Ever since you left I haven’t been able to sleep through the night like I once did. I miss you deeply and no matter how far I am from your grave I’ll always make sure you have flowers bubba. I have an ofrenda and regardless I know you are with me. I live my life in a way I know would make you proud. Thank you for protecting me, so many times I should’ve died. I should be worse off than I am but I am happier than ever. Thank you for protecting me now as you did then. 

Continue to watch over my home, I make sure it is one filled with joy and laughter especially in your honor. Every time something major happens I write a few pages in the book I keep for you. I keep fresh water, hot coffee, and fruit near your ofrenda for you and our great grandparents to smell.  My future children will always know who their uncle is. Every time a memory of us pops into my mind I write it down so that I may never lose it.

Hi Son,
It's me ..

I miss you so much.  I always think of you. Please watch over Chad...ok? Watch over your brother and sisters too and everyone else in the family.


Mom




I still talk about you everyday like you asked me to if anything happened to you, I miss you so much. You are so loved by everyone who knew you. I love you. Everything reminds me of you. I thank god everyday for the time I got to spend with you it was a gift. 

I miss you so much everyday it hurts so much to be without you for 4 years we would’ve been friends for 10 years this august. I would do anything to bring you back. But I know you’re always with me. I just want you to hold me and tell me everything is going to be alright or kidnap me to go be hoodrats one more time. There’s a hole in my life where u used to be. I hope I make you proud. I love you sm.

I love you Joey. We always fought but at the end of the day you were always there for me. I’m so sorry I wasn’t there when you needed me. I will spend the rest of my life trying to honor you and our memories and time together like I promised u. I can’t say much of what our friendship consisted of but I can say that it was wild, exciting, and the most special 6 years of my life. Even when we were fighting with eachother we stayed fighting for eachother, real loyalty. You taught me, guided me, was my number one fan and biggest bully at the same time. I wouldn’t be me without you. My partner in crime. 

Hi Son,
I miss you so much. I think of you every single day and I want you to know I'll always have you in my soul..my heart..and my prayers. I love you my Angel Son..

This breaks my heart in so many ways. You, Sir, are an enigma.. I know they DEFINITELY need cardiologists in Heaven... too many broken hearts that made their way out of here. I've missed you over the past few months.. I wish there was more time to have our long discussions about life and cooking and college goals.. you changed my life with that heart of gold and loyal ass soul.. I've got your kicks you gave me laced up tight.. ganggang.. dammit Joey.. I love you kidd. 

Dear dear Joey 💕😭

My sweet sweet long time friend. Man how did this happen? Let’s just say we all know you weren’t scared of much. I remember your funny personality and how close we all were as
Little teenagers always kickin it at the mall being hoodlums those were the days. I wish all the love in the world  to your family I just hope
Your at peace now 💕 much love and stay up ! We will never forget you 

It’s still hard to think about it , but I know your in a better place now so I’m greatful for it. You were such a great guy with really the best personality. We’ve definitely had our ups and downs but the good times totally over rule the bad. I remember being 14 at a party and every guy that would come and start dancing with me joey would tell them my age , I was so angry at him for it but thinking about it now I thank him so much for looking out for me when I needed it the most . Will always be missing you Joey ❤️

We are deeply saddened by the loss of sweet Joey. You were an amazing man, son,  brother & friend. You were so intelligent, so gifted, so handsome, so sweet hearted. We know that you’ve left earth but never truly will leave us, you are still alive in our hearts and minds, through us, you’ll live on through our great memories & times shared. Joey you will be truly missed and we will continue to include you in our daily prayers. Rest In Love. We love you so much Joey. Love always, Shawni, Josclyn, Jillian & Max. 

Cousin..  I’ve been sitting here trying to find the rights word to express what you meant to me but words cannot express the love I have for you. The memories we shared are endless. The bond I shared with you is rare and for knowing you I am so grateful. You have impacted my life in more ways than one; you took care of my brother as if he was your own and you have taught us things that we will cherish forever. My loyalty to you is beyond measurement 💯 I will miss the way you used to flip your hair whenever it got in your face; and the way you would always tease me. I always knew it was out of love. Most of all I’ll miss your smile.  I remember how instantly we hit it off and the exact night we became best friends. You went a lil too hard and I held your hair back for you and tucked you into bed; you asked me to stay with you and that’s what I did for the whole night. You were my A1 since Day1. We were always so protective over each other. I knew when you were around I had nothing to worry about. You were always by my side. Whenever we were out and about you would always make sure that we didn’t lose each other in a crowd. You always made sure to keep any eye on me and sleep near me whenever we’d sleepover some where just to make sure I was safe. I remember there was a time we spent everyday together. You’d sleep over at my place and I at yours. I remember this specific time when we were sitting around a fire and you looked at me and told me how beautiful I was and how much potiental I had to become anything I wanted. You said I could be a model if I wanted and I laughed; but Joey I remember your words that night and I keep seeing it replay in my head. It was one of the most heart felt moments we shared. You reminded me of my worth and since that night I haven’t forgotten it. You were more than my best friend, you were my brother, you were my family and I was so blessed to have known you. I will never forget you joey.  I promise to keep your name alive. 143! ♥️🌹🙏🏼

Im missin you son..and how youd climb the walls in ypur spiderman underwear.😢

Joey always had such a funny personality that never failed to make me laugh with such a kind spirit. I still can't believe it. I'm going to miss you lots, rest easy♥️ 🕊 I'll never forget you. 

I’ve always loved you the most. You were my first love my first everything. You will always have a piece of my heart. I can’t even wrap my head around the fact that you’re gone, it was only a week ago that we saw each other last. My heart hurts so much but I know I’ll be with you again some day.  You were such a kind and loving person who truly made me feel loved. 

I had to find out about your passing to this memorial page being shared around online and it’s killing me to not know what happened to you. To his family, Please release some kind of information about his passing it’s killing me to not know. 

Joey was always a awesome lil boy he was eighter at my house or my son Angel was at his house  he alway had that smile on his face that I’ll never forget. Joey Will always be in our hearts  my family will be forever grateful for the times Joey  was in our life’s . Fly with the Angels Mijo 

Joey was such an amazing person. He grew up so smart and so kind hearted. I'll never forget the times we hung out, how much you cared and everything you did and would do for the people you loved. I'm going to miss the phone calls and texts. I love you and I miss you everyday. I cry all the time and it all still feels like a dream. I hope you're resting easy now.

Joey you will forever be in pur hearts ans always on our minds. We miss you every day. When we found out we were having the baby chad couldnt wait to make you god father. Now that you are gone bro its defiantly not the same. Baby michael will always know who hos god father was. R.I.P bro, gone but never forgottten.

You were always so sweet and caring about everyone mostly you were the clown that made everyone laugh and all those selfies on the apple store computers and adventures with arman. You will be forever truly missed and I hope you find happiness and Rest In Peace Joey 

Joey was truly a one of a kind person and I viewed him as a brother. He was always willing to help me or anyone at a moments notice without question. I am truly lucky to have shared so many great expereinces with him and I could not have asked for a more solid friend.  Joe had a way of making everyone around him happy and every event that much more fun.  From our early days in highschool to now, we have shared countless memories that I will never forget. We have had so much fun this year with our recent trips to Santa Cruz the water park and Black Oak where we may have saw a UFO haha. You were such a thoughtful and caring person to all of us and I hope you realize how much you truly meant to those around you. Joey I love you brother and know that you are in a better place now resting peacefully. I am so blessed to have had you in my life and will never forget the countless good times that we shared, rest easy.

Warped tour of 2017, we ditched everyone and the entire music festival to go to mountain view movie theatres drunk and watch the "Emoji Movie". We spent $100 at the arcade and went out for sushi. We always ended up excluding whoever we hungout with and basically talking amongst each other. Ill never forget holding your hand or going to the beach, watching movies or me making you coffee. The home cooked dinners youd make me. Raising Nina together. I never knew the memories would stop my love. You were my best friend in the entire world. I love you and there isnt a second you dont cross my mind baby. I cant wait to be with you again. 

Hi Son,
It's "Ma"☺ My heart aches for you 24/7...I miss you and I love you Joey... I won't let the memory of you get lost in the daily routine... I know youre at peace my angel. I love you...
Mom




We will miss you dearly but, will not be forgotten until the day we meet again...
