Enrique was intelligent and charismatic, one in a million. That is obvious from the many posts on here. I will never ever forget you.

Enrique Delos Reyes is brave and willing to fight for what is right, but at the same time he is kind. He even visits us, his relatives, at the Philippines every once in awhile. I never would have guessed that his time would end at such a young age. There is still a lot of good things he could have done. 

EJ,
It comes with great pain as I try to accept the facts that you are gone and that I am unable to go see you one last time at your funeral. Your last visit was enjoyable maybe because even though I was not able to keep up with some of the many things you want to do, you didn't get mad. I'll always remember how kind you are EJ and thank you for all the good memories. Wherever you are right now I'm sure no one wants you to be sad, We all hope you're happily at peace.

thinking of you and keeping your spirit alive

Ana and De Los Reyes family,

Please accept our condolences for the loss of EJ.

Kevin and Chery McCumber

Ana and Ricky,
I just found out about Enrique's passing and this tragedy. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this extremely difficult time. My deepest condolences go out to you and your family. While we were neighbors I saw him grow up and become a young man. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Vivian

Ana, I'm so sorry for your unimaginable loss. Wishing you peace and comfort in this difficult time.

I could not bring myself to write anything here for the longest time, but sitting here in your mom's home office at 4am, seeing your pictures everywhere, and feeling a strange peace come over me. EJ, you were the cutest baby, and grew up a happy, free spirit, smiles like your mom, naughty, naïve, hard headed, adorable combined into one. To the kid that had always had his own take in life, here's to you, you were always such an original (here raising my cup of tea)! You will always be remembered with much love.

Aning, nakikiramay ako. May mga reason bakit nangyayari ang lahat. Be strong.
Wish we were there to comfort you.
Hugs.

Thinking of you today I know yr watching xoxo

Dear kuya EJ,
I'm really sad that you are not here anymore and i feel sad for your mother, tita Aning. Thank you for the good habbits you told me. You told me not to use any gadgets when dining with my family because its family bonding. I will always remember this. Farewell kuya EJ.  I love you kuya EJ!

A rosary, that was EJ's last gift to me in December 2013.  It  was his last Christmas  with us here in Manila.  Now I am holding on to that rosary and praying to God to give his family strength during this difficult time...give them comfort.  I pray that your soul may rest in peace in the arms of our Father.  I love you EJ.

Tita Joan



Almighty Father, I offer my prayer and my novena for the soul of my dear nephew Ej, may your perpetual light shine upon him. And to you Aning my dear cousin, i pray for your strength your family will always be here! Smile for your Guardian angel is always by your side.... 

Love, 
Jing

It's been said that it's not the years in your life that count, it's the life in your years. I have always been proud of you EJ, for being one of the very few people I know who are brave enough to live their lives to the fullest each day, and never let anyone run it for them. I can't believe I'm saying this but, I'll miss how you run into my room every morning to throw stuff at me to wake me up haha. I wish we had more time, but I'll cherish every moment we had together. Thank you. I am heartbroken and I will miss you everyday, but I find some comfort in knowing you are in God's arms now. I pray you find peace wherever you are. I still mean the last thing I said to you: See you later cuz. I love you.

Will always be the sweetest and cutest baby EJ that we know!! We might not spend that much time together but please do know that it broke our hearts when we heard the news. Ate Aneng, we will always be here for you! Praying for much strength and comfort during this difficult time.. you will always be in our thoughts. Padre Pio and St. Clare.. hear our prayers! EJ, you will stay forever in our hearts baby boy!! (I will always remember you as a cheerful and happy baby! My mind thinks of your baby picture, touch of blonde hair, melting smile, wearing that yellow jacket.) Always. Always our baby EJ! 

**Tita Elay here! And the rest of the gang!! Murillo Family.
**hugs and much love all the way from Taguig!!

Dear Ana what a beautiful ceremony it was for E J yesterday E J was watching over his family and friends I know he would have been happy to see everyone there who loved him E J is now a beautiful angel and he will watch over us much love to you and family

Dear Aning,
     The members of P Gerio's clan extend our sincerest symphaty for the sudden death of your son, EJ.  Though most of us have not met EJ personally, we know in our hearts he was a fine young man and will surely be missed.  We pray for the repose of his soul and his eternal rest.
We all love you.

My dearest EJ,
     Words cannot explain how I felt that day upon hearing of your untimely death.  Cry....thats all I could do.  My heart was filled with anger and pain.  Anger to the people who did this to you, and pain for losing you so early.  Now the pain is doubled....we cannot be there to see you for the last time before you go, can't even say goodbye..
     We have just finished the 9 days prayer for you.  May your soul rest in peace.  Now that you are with lolo and lola, tito Eric and Aika, I know you'll be happy there.  Until we meet again....someday..
     I love you EJ.

From your ninang

I pray Jesus will be with the family of Enrique. Comfort & give them peace. He was a fine young man and will never be forgotten. He's in the arms of God.

Dear Aneng, 
It is my prayer that EJ may find peace with God. His heart will be filled with joy and happiness with the Lord.   I  am sure he wish you to be happy as he will be okey.
May you find peace in your heart and mind to Jesus as he always care and love you.  May Jesus touch your heart with His unfailing love. 

Our sincerest sympathy,, Mannex

Neng , I don't know the right words to comfort you. Your loss is also my loss.  Up to now i keep thinking that EJ will come back and everything will be alright. I believed in God's perfect timing but honestly I feel lost right now,, and keep asking HIM a big WHY.    Sorry we're not there beside you right now.  Neng , lets keep on praying and ask Him to touch our hearts and help us to focus on our faith not only in good times  but also in bad times like this. 

Loving you always,,your sister Bebe

my darling boy EJ , you are awesome to us and you know that for sure. You know that we love you so much and our heart are so broken because we will not hear or feel your warm smile and hugs. and today, we have no choice but to let you go.  I miss you. we miss you so much. more than i miss you everyday. there won't be a single day when we won't miss your quirky sense of humour, your friendship, your total honesty. your deep unconditional love for your mom and your dad. my day is especially great when i hear you call out ' hi tita bebel, how are you?' and starts a call, a chat (and goodness knows which hours) when we are back home in the UK. i miss your planned cookout and your planned trips in your car. i walk around your room and you are so present my love.  i see why we have the same birthdays and i see why your mum and dad are so in love with you too.  even in your absence, we can feel your warmth our boy. you have always been so generous of your love and acceptance for whomever it is. i was blessed and privileged to have you as my godson and the same birthday. the tears i shed because the world was even more fun and hope always shines because you are in it. goodbye our beautiful boy, dear buddy, babe, our little one, our godson, our nephew, our son. thank you for not being afraid to show your love, We are so privileged to know of your love , your love for me and tito michael. We look forward to the day when we can hang out in heaven darling. We know you will be there. Love Tito Michael and Tita Bebel

Dear Anna: I was shocked to hear of this news today (May 28). We know that this has come to you as a real shock which has affected your family. For a person so young to be taken away, is a real tragedy. May the Lord give you the peace that passeth all understanding, and the strength and the courage to bear this great loss. Our words are not enough and cannot bring you comfort - He will. We will continue uphold you in our prayers and may his soul Rest In Peace - and now he is also Rejoicing in Paradise! 
John Solomon (Arlington, VA)

Ana, I was devastated to hear the news and have been thinking about you!  My thoughts and prayers are with you.  You are such a wonderful mother.

Dearest, dearest Ana: I am so sorry to learn of this heartbreaking loss you are experiencing. I hope the love of your family, friends and larger life circle holding you close during this time brings you comfort. Love, Claudia

I am so sorry for your loss and the pain that you are going through.   I remember when EJ would come to work with you as a young boy many years ago and the pride that you have spoken about him in the years since.   You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Ana, I keep thinking of all the conversations we had about EJ. You are such an inspiring mother, knowing just what to say to EJ to inspire him to be he best and simultaneously know that he made you so proud and that you loved him so much! I hope I can be that kind of mother to my son. You are in my heart during these hard days. Love, Sarah

Dear Ana

No one can write enough to sooth your pain, no words can replace your need to have him next to you... I believe God takes back the angels, those that are chosen for something else, something better. May his soul guide you and keep you strong so that you lit up a candle and keep his memories going... Enrique will live in the hearts of his friends and family forever. Sending you our prayers, condolences for this tragedy and hoping you find strength to carry on!

You are in our hearts!

On Behalf of the CARE Haiti team

Ana, I have no words to express the feeling I experienced upon hearing the passing away of your son. I am really sorry. It is tough but I pray for God to give you the strength. May god bless his soul.

Ana,
I am completely heartbroken for you and cannot begin to imagine the pain of your loss.  You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

My boyfriend and I met Enrique when he worked at Zaxbys. He was so sweet and caring. He actually was the only person that came to help me when my car broke down. He barely knew me at the time but I will be forever grateful. He was a wonderful person and God always has a plan. May he rest in peace. Our prayers go out to his parents and family.

For the best friend I lost but will never forget.

Dear ana ,
  i really can't express my feelings kasi deep inside nararamdaman ko yung nararamdaman mo.pero alam ko God has plan for everything .it really hurts but EJ always with you .my deepest symphaty we are here always.
                       aaron and oyyete

Dear Ana,
I am not sure what to say, I am so sorry for your shocking loss. My heart and prayers go out to you. Please let me know if there is anything I can do. lots of love

To make someone laugh,
Rique and I met through a mutual friend we had. The first time I met him I did not realize that we would date later on (our relationship, thankfully, ended on good terms). He would take me to his favorite restaurants and jokingly tell me how I had been eating food wrong my entire life. We went to a Japanese restaurant in Woodstock once and I had ordered the Sweet and Sour Chicken and he informed me that I was eating my rice (to which I just told him that it worked for me) wrong because I was using a spoon instead of chopsticks. It is still hard to believe that the boy who cared so much about others and just wanted to make his life better is gone. He was a kind soul and I can only pray for peace for his parents as well as other relatives. 
Rebekah Clay

To our dearest ej,
It was on May 21st when i heard the news and until now i can't believe it and still in blues. I find myself wishing it wasn't true. Everytime i am thinking about it, pain is only i can feel; but my heart tells me you'll always be here. I still remember the times that we pillow fight. All those times we've spent and sleepovers that happened. We miss you and love you forever until the day that we are all together. Together in that perfect place. But until that day comes i will wipe my tears away. I hope to see your smile again and get another hug. One day i'll be at heavens gates hoping they open up.....

Ana, I know there are no words that can adequately comfort you through this heartbreaking loss of EJ. But I want you to know your CARE family loves you and is here for you.

Dear Ana, I know no words can help ease the pain and loss that you are feeling right now, as mother I just can't imagine endured pain that cannot be relieved and the loss can never be replaced. You are in my prayers and thought.

Dear Ana,
I am deeply sorry for the loss of your beautiful son. May the God of peace and comfort draw near to you during this difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Ana,
