But also his brother the adventures, you to would endure will always be with him you both had a bromance that no one could understand but you to, Jayson and I will truly miss you!

My precious cruz,my heart is shattered in a million pieces. Little did I no 19 yrs ago when I enrolled Russell in kindergarten that I would gain a son. The stunts u and Russ would pull when we were on vacation were unforgettable. The hours u guys spent in the pool every summer. 
I keep waiting for u to walk through the door with your, smile, hug, kiss saying hey mom what's up. I am so proud of Brittney she is doing you proud, but u know that, I know you are watching over her and Paxton. I'm gonna miss our tAlks and poker games. I'm gonna miss you saying you worry to much mom. It was an honor to watch you grow into such a wonderful husband and father. 
I LOVE YOU and can't imagine life without you,but youll remain in my heart forever
Mom Sanchez

Dear Cruz, 
There are no words capable of describing the loss that everyone who knew you is feeling. The kind words being spoken about you reflect the type of wonderful person that you were. Although you will be watching Brittney and Paxton from up above, I promise that we will continue to watch over them from here.  May your smile bless the heavens like it did here on Earth. 

Brittney,
You are a strong, beautiful, and resilient woman.  No person should have to suffer the pain that you are suffering now. Be grateful for the moments you had, and allow his presence to be apart of everything that you continue to do. You lost your best friend on Earth, but have gained a guardian angel. Hug your son, and remember that he too is strong and together you can both make it out of this even stronger. We are all here for you, in any way you need us.  Don't be afraid to ask for help. Keep your head up and cherish all the wonderful moments. We love you.

Britney this is a very trying time in your life, you have alot of people that love and care about you. Remember that and lean on the Lord and he will comfort your broken heart. We love you very much. Love Duane and Toni Dahl and Fanily.

My dear brother, I have lost you before I could give you one last hug. To say I love you once more. You have left this world too early, but I know things happen for a reason. I miss you already and I will make sure your son knows what a good person you were. You were a great father, husband, brother and son. I wish we had more time but I know your in heaven watching over us. I love you Cruz, and will always keep you in my heart. Your big brother David.

We all love you and will really miss your beautiful smile. You were my vanilla boy and you know what that means.Say hi to grandpa for me and everyone else your with. Don't worry, we'll keep an eye on Paxton and Brittney, Love MOM, Dad and your bro's

I trust in God that your life will leave a legacy behind you...we will miss you dearly.
