Dear Guzman Family,
God always has a plan... May Ernie rest in peace and may your family always keep their faith.....JoAnne Hadley (Birkenstock )

Mommy and Daddy miss you every minute of the day. We love you pops.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of you. I kept asking God why? The only word that kept coming to my mind was that he is "Special" to God. He is a special Angel in Heaven, honoring God. You will all meet again someday. He will have so much to tell you that he couldn't say when he was here on earth! I love you all and if ever you need a shoulder or a ear, call me! 
              Pearl Montorio

Lord, my heart is full, for each day You come to me with the comfort of joy and peace that is beyond my understanding. Give me the desire to be a comfort to those who are hurting. Let me be sensitive to anyone who faces the trials and tribulations of life. Help me to reach out with a compassionate heart to share the love of Christ with others. Amen Blessings. Uncle Eddie& Aunt B

A special poem written for 'Lil-Lil' from his friend, Lorraine Tafoya.

Wait one minute!
Just one minute!

Lil-Lil, Little star....
Lil-Lil, I know where you are....

You're busy watching Barney 24/7, with a bowl of ruffle chips at breakfast, at noon, and at night!  But that's okay Lil-Lil because what happens in heaven, stays in heaven. 

Lil-Lil, Little star....
Lil-Lil, I know where you are....

You're watching Mr. Noodle, Big Bird and Elmo.  You can now help Mr. Noodle put that sill raincoat on and you already know that Big Bird is really that tall.

Lil-Lil, Little star....
Lil-Lil, I know where you are....

you're with Buzz Light Year, crusing in his space ship, laughing and singing with the Wiggles, dancing the night away.  You're reading out loud and you know your colors, yellow and red, easy breezy.  May I show you how I groove!

Lil-Lil, Little star....
Lil-Lil, I know where you are....

You're playing on the playground with Sid the Science Kid, Gabrielle, Gerald, Meg and teacher Susie too.  We're looking for a friend, we're looking for a friend in you, and guess who we found!  Lil-Lil, now you can show them all your moves!

Lil-Lil, Little star....
Lil-Lil, I know where you are....

Indeed, have I found a friend.
I found a friend in you.

Lil-Lil, Littel star....
Lil-Lil, I will always know where you are, Together as hearts....

Dearest Family, 
We are never sure of how much we can endure.  However when you see a picture such as this, showing how Baby Ernie, since his birth has touched the deepest part of each of us.  Our life's circle....our family's tradition of reflection and visitation. We now find we are stronger then we ever knew.  Therefore remember, especially now.....we are all STRONGER than any problem we will encounter....or any disappointment life will bring.  
Psalms 27:5
For God will hide me in his shelter in time of trouble, will conceal me in the cover of his tent; and set me high upon a rock.
Blessings, ALWAYS.

susie n ernie ur son was a blessing to everyone who met him. he will be forever in oir hearts.

Baby Ernie....Grandmother's Lion King: Your life is now compiled of picture images that flash through out my mind. Your great big smile with such a cute dimple on the side. Your big, beautiful captivating eyes, which melted my heart, when you showed me your "ojitos".   Your squeezing arms extended out, showing your excitement at seeing one another each time we would visit. Singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow to you, when you were tired and fighting your sleep. Then singing the Happy song, I sang to your Dad as a child, to you when you figured out the Somewhere Over the Rainbow song put you to sleep. My heart is so full of such wonderful memories. Thank you for all those special moments which took my breath away.  You are and ALWAYS will be an unforgetable spirit in my life.  Until we meet again, may the Lord hold you in the palm of his hand. Grandmother's Lion King knew she loved him so much, it hurt!!! You are flying over the rainbow with the bluebirds.  Singing the Happy song out loud!! XOXOXO.....There are no more tears in Heaven....I love my smiling face you sent me, I know you are ALWAYS with me and you know.... you are ALWAYS in my prayers. Hugs and Kisses...ALWAYS!!!!

Lil Lil, I'll remember how you would reach out and give me a GREAT BIG HUG, "Hugs I'll miss very much from you". And how I would hold you, and comfort you when grandma Gloria(Nana) was cooking in the kitchen and watch T.V. with you.But I will be comforted in knowing your with our Heavently Father in good hands. Holiday gatherings you will be in our hearts and thoughts. Alway Love Your Cousin Virginia Loya,and Your Little Cousins will miss playing with you- Miguel Jr.,Gabriel, Jannine & Sammy Lozano.

Brenda,

I'm sorry for your lost. May the Lord lift up your sprits and bring peace to your family. Love you always!
You sister in Christ,
Daisy

Yesterday was Easter and I thought of you and your family. “ Christ has died, Christ has risen, Christ will come again.” It was Jesus’ Assumption to Heaven that guarantees us Eternal Life.  I hope that the Easter Celebration brought you some peace as we KNOW that we will see Ernie Junior in Heaven as we will see those that have passed on before us to see our Heavenly Father.  May God hold you in the comfort of his hands during this time.
Blessings

Two weeks ago the world lost a beautiful child and his parents lives are forever changed. May God continue to hold you in his loving arms and may your happy memories bring you peace. RIP lil e

This poem was written by our daughter in memory of all children who have passed before us. Please take comfort in her words. Valencia Fsmily

WHOSE CHILD IS THIS?

Whose child is this
That I’ve come to receive
A child to miss
That parents will grieve
Whose baby is here
That died today
Sent off with tears
To heaven to play
Whose angel was taken
From their mother’s arms
To a safer haven
With no more harm
The hurt will seem long
In time it will heal
Meanwhile be strong
It seems so surreal
The time that it takes
To see them again
Your baby will wait
Till you have been sent
To God and his children
Happy and loved
Straight into heaven
And the stars above

Our deepest sympathy to you and your family in the loss of your little angel.Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My deepest sympathies to you and all your family at this most very difficult time.  I never met little Ernie but I worked with his Grandmother Corinne.  I retired in 2008.  I can still remember the day Corinne told me she was going to be a Grandmother. She was so proud and happy. I encourage you to connect with an organization called Compassionate Friends. They are a support group of people who have all lost a child.  You will find support and comfort there.  God Bless You!  Lela Babauta

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

God will give you both the strenght to continue your journey. Little Ernie had left us but he leaves a lot with us in our hearths. We will always remember him with a smile on his face, his long hair and his dancing. Our deepest condolences and thoughts goes to you Susie and Ernie.

May God bless you all. We love you all very much, and we are here if you need anything; anything at all.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. Please try to take comfort in knowing that now you have a special angel to watch over you. Lil E touched the hearts of so many, and will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Ernie & Susie,
I am overcome with sorrow over the loss of your precious son.  He was a wonderful boy, and I know he would have been a great man and an honorable sir knight! I pray Jesus to comfort you and give you His peace.  You have been and will continue to be in our prayers.

My deepest sympathies to the family. The memories of Ernie in Kindergarten with Teacher Treasurelyn, Teacher Maggie and myself are priceless. His beautiful smile, his love for Barney books and his dancing skills will always remain.

My brother Knights and family: My deepest condolences and thoughts at this trying time. Lil E is dancing in Heaven; at peace. Godspeed.
