Three reader comments about Edgar Juarez

"Forever Young"

By: Renee 'nay' Kristen Kristen

Trapped in the glorious years
within the memory of belief, lost of all grief.
Take the reasons,
which once seemed so clear,
but never mind, you have nothing to fear.
For you my fried will be, forever young,
Forever in the heart of memories.

Lost in the glory of all time,
the wisdom was there within that smile,
You see you could have told us,
there within lies the mystery.

So shed a smile, and grin a tear,
For you my friend, will be,
Forever young, Forever young.
Forever in the heart of memory,
We see not through or misery.
Forever young, forever young.
There's a new angel tonight.

To a mother who has just lost a child,

To a family who have just lost a member,

To a friend who has just lost a friend.

Rest In Peace, Our dear Edgar Juarez, an amazing guy, in our hearts.

Our young soldier,20 year old, who lost his battle of life.

With his charming smile, and love,

He will look down at us on ground.

We Will miss Edgar Juarez,

Forever In Our Hearts
