I'll miss you brother. From spending german class with you yelling "warum" and clapping, to playing some of our favorite games together like Call Of Duty zombies in freshman year of highschool. I think about you daily since hearing about your passing from some friends we share. You will always be loved and remembered in my book. Rest in piece.

Dmitri your fun loving spirit is how we will remember you. We knew Dmitri when he was just a little guy. His smile and sense of humor touched our hearts.  There was never a dull moment when he was in a room. Rest In Peace sweet Dmitri.  May your beautiful spirit live on forever.  

Hector, Connie, Ryan, and Nathan. 

My great nephew Dmitri,  you were always a ray of sunshine whenever we saw you. Unlike so many young people today. You were always happy, kind, respectful, and loving. I remember you as fun loving,goofing around , big beautiful smile, with God's spirit shining thru.  You made me so happy when you told me, when you think of Torreon you  think of me . You'll be thought of every day. Your now with great grandma and grandpa, they loved you so much.  We love you so very much. You left this world too soon, but now in a better place. Only God knows how much any of us can bear, and he rescued you from from you pain. We'll miss you. 
 

I was blessed to have worked with Dimitri. 
We will miss him so much, he was a Ray of sunshine and always had a smile on his face.  

D’mitri my cousin, always thoughtful and considerate of others. I remember when I came to visit the summer of my senior year and spent the night with the family. First thing you asked when all of us woke up was if I was okay, if I needed any water or cereal and how I was doing. I remember thinking, this kid is not even 10 and is so sweet and considerate for his age, we then talked about all the games you were interested in at the time and had a good laugh. 

Till we meet again, cousin! Tell Grandma Chi, I said hi 💕

My beautiful nephew, Meters...
You’re humbling words always beyond your years trying to make me feel better when we visited.  Me, always anxious trying to over-compensate from lost time.  I remember when we were at the mall, having an intense “get re-acquainted” conversation in the food court.  You looking at me, me looking at you, you slumping your shoulders finally, and me relaxing my back into the chair.  Then we cracked-up so much, barely being able to contain our laughs, let alone breathe.  I will always cherish those memories that brought light to our relationship.  I remember our most recent conversation with you always ending it with, “You don’t have to do this Aunt Marie.”  My dearest, precious nephew, I do it because I love you...ALL of you!

...Til we meet again, D’mitri❤️

Dmitri, thank you for always living in the moment, like time didn’t pass between our visits. I remember the surprising awe and “how did you know?” when you received those storm/tornado books for Christmas. Or when you shared your silly YouTube videos of Yena’s firecracker farts that made me laugh. You touched my life with your calm kindness and I am forever grateful. I miss you nephew, keep Grandma Chi company until I see you again. I love you. 

Take me past the outer courts,
Into the holy place,
Past the brazen altar.
Lord I want to see Your face.
Pass me by the crowds of people
And the priests who sing Your praise.
I hunger and thirst for Your righteousness,
But it's only found in one place.
Take me in to the holy of holies.
Take me in by the blood of the lamb.
Take me in to the holy of holies.
Take the coal, touch my lips, here I am.



I met Dmitri just a few times. I remember him being such a kind and beautiful child. As a mom, watching you experience his loss has been so painful. But after observing your family for many years, I have seen the love you have for one another. Your sweet boy was so loved. Wishing you God’s comfort and peace.

Robert and Sarah  and all your family,

I'm so sorry for your loss.  I pray that the healing gifts of time and the love of God will carry you  gently through all this pain you're going through right now.  

 May God bless and comfort you in this time of sorrow.

Keeping you always in my prayers, 

Auntie Frances



I first met Dmitri when Stefan and Brandon began playing sports together.  He was a little guy, like 2 or 3 years old.  He was adorable, charming and carefree, with a great smile.  Like all of the younger siblings, Dmitri got dragged around to all of the practices and games.  The players and their parents and siblings spent a lot of time together, and we became like a big family.  So I feel like we have lost one of our own.  Although after the Gallegos family moved to Arizona and we were fortunate to have the beautiful pictures that Sarah and Robert posted on Facebook, to me Dimitri will always be that adorable little boy with the big smile.  Rest in peace Dimitri. 

There are too many amazing memories with my Dmitri baby. One I love is this one night when I was asleep and woke around maybe 2:00 in the morning from having a terrible nightmare. I got out of bed because I could hear Dmitri up playing games with his friends in the back room. I interrupted and told him I couldn't sleep and in an instant, he paused his game, took me into the living room, and sat beside me to comfort me. He made me tea and told me funny stories until I was sleepy and ready to go back to bed. That was my little brother taking care of his sister, always. He was deeply caring & had such a loving heart. 

We will always remember when Chris and Stefan meet in 3rd grade, and joined basketball together. Dmitri was about 4-5 years old and would attend practices or games right alongside his Mama Bear and family. He was the cutest little boy, with the most stylish clothes and hair! Throughout the years we watched him grow into a handsome, kind hearted young man. He always greeted us with a warm welcome and bright smile. While we will miss Dmitri more than words can express, just know that he has made an incredible impact in our lives. Rest In Peace, our dear friend💜

One of my most precious memories with Dmitri is when Lauren, Stef, Dmitri and I were house-sitting for a weekend. I remember in the morning, I told Lauren I would wake up Dmitri for school as he was still a junior at Hamilton. I remember going upstairs and seeing him sleeping on Mom's bed. I whispered, hey Dmitri its time to wake up for school. He instantly woke up with a smile and said Oh okay. It's precious to me because at that moment I started to feel like his big brother. Love you little bro 

I have wonderful memories of Dmitri...but my favorite memory is how...at a very, very young age..maybe 3 or 4 years old, he LOVED Phantom of the Opera and had developed a character he would pretend to be...that was a mix of Phantom, and the scary guy from Scream...and some sort of Ninja. He would make us laugh so much. He was creative, and kind and loved.....you will be missed lil hito...love and prayers to the entire family.
