Javier I have been remembering how good of a partner you were, I always felt safe and secure and I knew together we could handle any problems life had in store for us. Now alone the whole world seems like a very hard place to be in. Well its friday and morty goldie and me start another lonely weekend without you. Miss you.

Javier its getting harder and harder and next week will be Thanksgiving I hope I can be strong . I don't think its ever going to get better. I will never forget you.

Posted by: joseph duran November 20, 2009
Javier You are the only one I can tell and the only one I felt who cared how I feel and who understood me, especially when I had a problem. Well today I woke up so depressed I didn't want to get out of bed. I have been feeling bad all day and its evening and nothings changed. To make matters even worst I got the mail and all the mail was for YOU and my MOTHER (the two most important people I had in my life). Like I have said before I know you would want me to be strong and I am trying with all my being to do what you want, and what I know in my head is what I should do. But this hurting heart seems to take over. Maybe tomorrow will be a more tolerating day but I can't make any promises. I miss talking over my problems with you, you usually came up with a reasonable solution or a least be by my side. Dam SHeart I miss you.
Love Joseph

Javier today Lester invited me to the movies, I wasn't going to go but he talked me into it. Anyway we went to Lodi cinema 12, you know the place we used to go to the movies often. Anyway all through the movie I was thinking of you, like seeing us sitting in the places we used to like to sit. And trying to remember the last time we were there, then I remembered it was with Lester and right after you had your surgery. We invited him to see the Transformers and I remember you enjoyed it even if you were not feeling that well. To make a long story short I tried my best to enjoy the movie, I didn't mention this to Lester I kept it inside. but I came home thinking that I would of enjoyed it more with you and remembering that I can't remember when in the last 17 years I went to the movies without you. Anyway another day without you what can I say.
Love Joseph

Javier today is 2 months since you left. Morty and I went again to your resting place, I took you your favorite soup cup with a handle and in it I put a lemon from your lemon tree. I remember how you cared for that tree and looked forward to the time lemons start appearing. Anyway Javier I miss not talking to you, I miss your calls from work or hearing the garage door open when you came home. These are just some of the many things I miss. Javier I know you would be mad but I can not help crying for you everyday. I still can not believe you are gone.
Love Joseph

Javier went to your resting place today I know that was the last place I was with you but I feel you more in my heart and at our home. MISS YOU...........

Javier, I know you would be glad to know I went to lunch with your mother, Gilbert and Brad. I know you were always happy when everyone got along. I will always try for you as I always had in the past. But even if we had deceided to sell the van I was a little sad to see it go today. I remember how happy you were when we bought it. As Brad drove away I pictured you driving it off to work. Everything makes me sad but I know you would be glad to know that Yolanda and Brad will be enjoying your van. I know they will be thinking of you as they enjoy the van. Oh Javier Lolis e-mailed that one of your favorite aunts passed away Elvia, I know you greeted her with special love only you could give.
Love Joseph

Javier I had a busy day. I picked up Brad who flew in from Texas to drive our Van back to Texas. We visited your resting place. We also had dinner with Sergio, Cecilia and Kiley (your look alike). Of course our main topic was you. Also Yolanda sent me a special tribute to you in a frame, it was so nice. I am planning to put it next to your favorite chair now in the living room. One thing remains we all miss you very very much.

Javier today cecilia gave me a picture of you and the twins, taken by alex just before you became ill. Javier you looked so handsome and happy, I was happy to receive the picture but it just broke my heart. I know I will never get over not having you in my life. The hurt just seems to get stronger as time goes by. It is not true that time heals everything. Your pesence in my life was and is as strong as it has been for the last 17 years, nothing has changed for me in that aspect.
Love Joseph
