I thought I'd look up classmates from Aragon Avenue Elementary School. Very surprised to hear that Wacky had passed away. So sorry for your loss. 

To my friend, Wacky, It's been a long time. I've been looking for you on the internet and asking anyone that came from LA if they've seen you. I wish we would have been able to meet up. Talk about old times in junior high. Someday we'll see each other. To the family of Joaquin, my name is Carlos Ramos, I lived in LA and went to junior high with him. So sorry for your loss.
I live near Fresno if anyone can let know Jaime I've been looking for him too.

Uncle Homie,
Where do I begin? I've always admired how you were not afraid to speak your mind. Ever since I can remember you have been a wild free spirit, on your own path. It's going to be a little strange to walk into grandmas and not hear "here comes Lady Gaga" you loved to crack jokes, and that laugh of yours, lol. My most recent and precious memory of you is when you came over to help build the swing set for Niko. It was great to see you connect with him, laughing and playing like a little kid. I'm going to miss you Uncle Homie, but you will always be in my thoughts and prayers. Rest in paradise.

Juaqin, you will be missed,  You have always been a stand up homie. Ever since I met you when you were a youngster at my cousins Danny Rocks.

Uncle Joaquin, you will be greatly missed. It's going to be weird walking into Grandma's house and not hearing your music or seeing you asleep on your favorite chair. You were always the first one to say hello, and every time we were about to leave you would tell us to come back anytime, as long as our mom didn't come with us, LOL. We're going to miss your laughter, quick comebacks, and how you always had something to say about everyone who would walk through the door. Thank you for all the drawings you've given us over the years and for being a great uncle. Bella will miss her Uncle Homie and so will we. We'll make sure to let Jon Luke and Jaxson know about their Uncle Homie too. Rest in peace and give grandpa a big hug for us. Love always, John, Gabriel, and Hannah Salcido

Primo you went home first love you miss you give my mom and Tio Jose a big kiss and hug for me see you on the other side.......

Joaquin, I will always carry a special place in my heart for you.  I felt your presence that day you left us, I see your beautiful smile.  As I smile back at you, be in peace and happiness.  I love you.  Until we meet again.

Never will there come a day in which I do not think of you & my heart not ache. There were so many things I wanted to say to you but most of all to thank you for being such an amazing man & friend to me. I am honored to have known you. You will forever be in my heart thoughts & prayers. I miss you soooo much Joaquiny.

See you on the other side, homeboy; where everything, and everyone keeps a smile on your face. People like you could never be forgotten. You and your family are loved very much.
