    We will always remember you… You were a great person but more than anything a friend. When we picture you in our minds we remember that bright white smile of yours. Having you for three periods a day last year you were very close to me and it hurts seeing you go out this way. I’m sorry for the people and chain of events that led you to even have the option or thought that made this happen. Wherever you roam now, (because no one really knows what happens), I hope you are finally free from all this non-stopping worldly stress. This world is full of negative things, but Esteban…. I just wish you would of known it was also full of good things…. I know, I don’t blame you… The way people can drive us, straight down to our knees with pain. It can make us forget all about the good things… And I’m sorry there was no one there to really hear you out. It only takes one person and I’m sorry that wasn’t there. We wouldn’t have wished this upon our worst enemy Esteban, even less it being you. Once again, that white smile…. We need more of in this world. People around us always being so negative, bitter, prejudice, stereo typical, and just completely unloving; We need more smiles like yours around. It always made us happy to see you smile because you were always so innocent, respectable, but most of all loving and understanding. You always had the best advice. Even if we didn’t wanna follow it because we’d rather get in trouble, we always knew it was the best way to go. I admit sometimes I had seen people say things that they didn’t dearly mean but could have been taken personal by you, but you know I was always there and had your back. But only if I knew how you felt… I wish you would of been a little bit more open to the people around you… We miss you so much! And we and whoever/whatever was the cause of this misses you. We’re sorry for making you think such bad thoughts. We never meant to drive you to this point. You were always a friend to anyone as long as they were a friend to you. You don’t deserve this. You don’t…. In all reality, you brought nothing but good into this world. I don’t have one bad thing against you. We had many projects together and you were always the one volunteering to help and making sure you did your part, and most of the time, even extra. You were a generous, noble, and bright kid. In fact You’re future was bright. It was really bright Esteban…. Varsity soccer as a freshman, in a city that soccer is popular. Being smart and in upper classes when both you and I are expected to be the “dumbest people in America”, says latest research. Brownsville itself is a can of worms. But you managed to excel through all of that. I’m sorry that we let you down. We’re sorry that we let you down. I have so many clips (memories) about you in my mind that I can replay and replay and I can still hear your voice. Your deep voice. There’s one where we’re in science class doing a science project on the computers for Ms.Torres about Down syndrome. It was just You, Nick, and I. Nick was first trying to find some classical music to jam out to and you just looked and me and laughed. Another clip again in Ms.Torres’ class where it was a group between You,Camryn, and I. We were at the lab tables in the back. There was toothpicks in a bowl and we were supposed to pick up one toothpick at a time and snap it with one hand and put the two pieces down as fast as we can for one minute. But as usual at times we would just talk. And you told me , ” Bro, I don’t think the teacher likes me”. I quickly responded , ” nah bro she hates me” and Camryn added ,”she hates everybody”…. Of course Ms.Torres had to be right behind us and happened to only hear me and well I got in trouble Haha… These clips are in my head because they took place with someone that I enjoyed being accompanied by. You…. You were cool man. I had/have respect for you on so many levels. You knew how to be generous, noble, and cool all at the same time. You were simply amazing Esteban. I hope you know we loved and still very much love you…. You are no longer with us and we’re sad/regretful about the situation, but know we will nowlet you fly free.

    From,
    Let’s just a say a friend who is grateful to have had you for the little time he ever will.
