Querido amigo te vamos extrañar sólo puedo decirte gracias por tanto fuiste un ser humano extraordinario jamás te olvidaremos Dios te reciba en sus brazos 😢😢🙏😢🌹🌹

Papi!!
      I never thought I would see you in a casket but tonight changed everything. This is a photo of Us and Mom on our 12th Birthday 🙂 I Love Our “Good Memories“ we had with you.  We were the Daughter’s  you never had and boy ol boy we sure did knew how to test your temper. Lol 
      I wasn’t going to leave a message because I’m at a lost for words. We Love you Papi!! Until We meet again! 

                                                          Love You Always 
                                                 From Your Twin Daughter 

Epi, 
I am so saddened by your loss. I keep thinking of all the times you would come over as a teen to hang out with Frank at our apartment. I keep thinking of how much  you helped us when our mom passed away and of the last time you reached out when my dad passed away in June. I re-read your message regarding the loss of Tio. You were always there for our brother and for my family. 

During our last exchange you said you were family and I agreed. I told you that you were my brothers, brother and my cousins, cousin and therefore you are my family forever. Losing you is losing a family member. Your heart broke for Tio Tony and my heart breaks for you. 

My deepest condolences to your wonderful wife Magda, your beautiful boys, your sister Zaida & brother Luis. You were a great son, brother, father, husband, friend and family member. 

You will never be forgotten. May your soul rest in heavenly peace as you join your loved ones in heaven. 

Sending healing thoughts and hugs to your family. 

Silvia 
Here are some pics a friend of mine who remembered you from HS sent me. Even after this long he actually remembered you as being a great and intelligent guy. 

Still feels surreal as prep to say goodbye.  I was never one for many words.  But you will be missed my brother.  Rest in peace my friend.  Rock on the highway to heaven in your 67 Camaro.  Till we meet again.

Epi! Papá,  nos dejaste una gran tristeza y me faltó tiempo para poder compartir con ustedes nuevos momentos y poner en práctica aquello que me dijiste en alguna ocasión en Colombia, lo atesoraré de ahora en adelante como un valioso consejo. Vamos a extrañar mucho tu llegada junto a tu familia. 
Nos vas a hacer falta y guardaremos el recuerdo de tu ser en nuestro corazón. 

Dios te conceda un excelente lugar a su lado, para que desde allá sigas acompañando a Magdita y a tus hijos.

Magda, Lucas, Gabriel y tía Larmith un fuerte abrazo desde la distancia, Dios les dé la fortaleza para salir adelante.... 

Los queremos mucho !! 
Edilberto, Sandra, Anny, Diana y Alejo.    

MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOURS   MAGDA AT THIS TIME OF SORROW.  EPI  WAS A GREAT  FRIEND OF MY  FOR MANY YEARS.

Mi querido Epi!! 
No te alcanzas a imaginar la falta que nos vas a hacer,  cada sonrisa tuya la llevaremos en nuestros corazones, dejaste una huella única y así siempre te vamos a recordar. Para mi Hermana Magda mucha fuerza,   las circunstancias no nos permitieron estar contigo y despedir a mi Compay,  sabes que  aquí estamos de corazón y como siempre mujer fuerte y valiente para mis muchachos Lucas y Gabriel..  
Un gran  Angel esta al lado de Papito Dios...  Te recordaremos siempre!!!! 
Tu Familia Colombiana!!!

Epi,
My heart is broken to hear you are gone.  You were a good friend to me and my family. You had my back when I was hurting and for that I will be eternally grateful! I’m just sorry that I couldn’t be there for you. I will always cherish our times working the streets and sharing laughs and tears as well! You were a good man! May you RIP. To all of Epi’s family may God show you his Grace and Mercy during this time.

To my dear brother epi, 
Who always kept me on track, i feel numb, praying to understand my emotions. I need some help and comfort to much is going on I’m lost. May you rest in  paradise next to mommy, daddy, and our beloved sister maggy. I love you always and forever epi. 

Love your little sister Zaida Mendez

My Dearest Cousin Epi!! 
(or Junito as we called him growing up!) 
My heart is broken to hear of your passing!  I can't believe that I know longer will see your smiling face on occasions. You were a kind person, a man that was always there for his family.  You were there when I needed you the most & I'm so very sorry that I didn't see you enough, but know that I will carry you in my heart & forever be grateful to have had you in my life for as long as I did.  And as always when we saw each other & it was time to say good bye we always ended it with an I love you!  Well Primo May You Rest in Peace & know this I LOVE YOU!  Till we meet again..With love always, 
Madalyn, Norberto & Maya xoxo

Se nos adelantó nuestro gran ángel 🙏🏻😭no es un adiós si no un hasta pronto Epi !! El cielo se llevó un gran ángel !
