in memoriam:
Raymond A. Robles
October 27, 1972 - June 17, 2001

To Ray,

my cousin, my best friend, 

my brother in spirit. I miss you,

living a life without you is difficult,

so many fond memories of you, 

you had a way of brightening everyone's day, especially mine.

with your light extinguished, 

this world has become a much darker place.

it saddens me to think

that I can never go back to those happy times,

that things could never be the same again.

I will hold on to my memories of you,

and in my heart I will never let you go...

and I look forward to that moment, 

I don't care if it's tomorrow or 100 years from now,

when it is my turn to pass from this existence,

so that our souls may reunite as the truest of friends

and we may pick up right where we left off...

I love you bro.
