Psalm 23.. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his names sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

My beloved brother, I thank God for blessing me with you in my life. The times through out the years we spent together I shall treasure. I carry you in my heart until we meet again. The 5 days we shared together at home before you parted this world will be forever in my memory. I love you so much Jose and I know you felt this from me. Your loving is always Gloria

I'm extremely thankful that my daughter Nyla knew and had the opportunity to create lasting memories of Jose. I feel privileged that he decided to spend his final days with our family. He was a gentle soul that will certainly be missed.

My sympathies goes out to the Rivera family. Jose was my brother, not by blood but by circumstances in my childhood. We cross paths briefly several times years later just by fate. He will always be remembered and never forgotten: My heart is with such gratitude that I had an opportunity to share some part of my life with Jose. I know in my heart that God has caressed and welcomed him home.

Jose kept coughing and trying to talk with me..he said that he felt weak. .I was feeling so helpless..I wanted so badly to had be able to get him to a hospital, where he should of been.. The same room, Jose, worked so hard to get, is the same room, our beloved Jose, rest in peace...Amen.. Five days after Jose spoke to me via phone our last conversation, Saturday 04, 2015..July 09, 2015 Jose,  passes away...  Jose was not able to drive to pick up the money.$110.00 that I had send to him..

My dear brother Jose, I only have a faint memory of meeting you once. I really don't know what to say. I am really sad I didn't get to meet you later in life when I was an adult. I would've liked to talk to you and get to know what kind of person you were. I wish you didn't have to go so soon. RIP.
